    • Two helpers in win
      Forsberg provided a pair of assists, two shots on goal and four hits in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Canucks in Game 5.

      Advice: Forsberg helped out on third-period tallies by Roman Josi and Alexandre Carrier to keep the Predators' season alive for another game. Through five playoff outings, Forsberg has been solid with two goals, four assists, 14 shots on net and 17 hits. The 29-year-old winger will continue to play a leading role on offense, which should also see him earn significant power-play minutes. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:13 pm
       
    • Keeps season alive
      Saros stopped 19 of 20 shots in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Canucks in Game 5.

      Advice: It was another low-event game, and Saros did his part this time to keep the Predators' season alive. He gave up just one goal to Nikita Zadorov in the third period. Saros has allowed 11 goals on 91 shots through five playoff outings -- those aren't great numbers, but he's done enough to keep most of the games close so far. The 29-year-old is almost guaranteed to get the nod again in Friday's Game 6. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:07 pm
       
    • Starting in must-win scenario
      Saros will protect the road goal versus the Canucks on Tuesday, Zach Gilchriest of the Predators' official site reports.

      Advice: Saros has allowed 10 goals on 71 shots over four first-round games, and he's gone 1-3 in those contests. That leaves the Predators in a must-win scenario Tuesday, and they'll ride with Saros to try to keep their season going. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 6:45 pm
       
    • Not expected to play in Game 5
      Matthews (illness) is not expected to play in Game 5 versus the Bruins on Tuesday, Emily Kaplan of ESPN reports.

      Advice: Matthews had limited participation in Tuesday's morning skate after making an early exit from Game 4. The Maple Leafs will be forced to face elimination without the league's top goal scorer in 2023-24. Look for Max Domi and John Tavares to see larger roles due to Matthews being unavailable.

    • Awaiting medical clearance
      Matthews (illness) will be a game-time decision for Game 5 against the Bruins on Tuesday. Coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters, "We'll see how the rest of the day goes," per David Alter of The Hockey News.

      Advice: Matthews didn't stay on the ice long during the team's game-day skate, raising doubts regarding his availability. Still, if the 26-year-old California native can get the all-clear from the team doctors, he should immediately reclaim both his top-line and No. 1 power-play roles. By Matthews' standards, he has struggled offensively of late with just one goal in his last six outings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:59 am
       
    • Traveling with team
      Matthews (illness) will join the Maple Leafs when they travel to Boston for Game 5 on Tuesday but remains questionable after head coach Sheldon Keefe told reporters, "We're hopeful he's available and feeling good and back to himself," per ESPN's Kristen Shilton.

      Advice: Matthews has scored just one goal in his last six contests despite having racked up 34 shots on net and adding two assists over that stretch. Without the world-class center at practice Tuesday, Toronto shifted Max Domi to center in addition to slotting him into Matthews' spot on the No. 1 power-play unit. If Matthews can get even close to 100 percent, he should reclaim both those roles heading into Tuesday's must-win game for Toronto. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:36 am
       
    • Not practicing Monday
      Matthews (illness), who was pulled from Game 4 against the Bruins on Saturday, was not in attendance for Monday's practice session, Joshua Kloke of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Matthews has produced points in just one of his last six appearances, though he racked up one goal and two helpers in that contest. The 26-year-old center's absence shouldn't come as a significant surprise considering he is trying to recover from a seemingly long-term illness that he tried to push through in Game 4. Without Matthews in the lineup, John Tavares could be given the first-line center role while Max Domi would likely move up to the No. 1 power-play unit. At this point, Matthews should be considered questionable ahead of Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:05 am
       
    • Finds twine in Game 4 loss
      Forsberg scored a goal on two shots, added two PIM and logged four hits in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canucks in Game 4.

      Advice: Forsberg's tally 12 seconds into the third period put the Predators up 3-1, but they couldn't hold the lead. The 29-year-old has done his part with two goals, two assists, 12 shots on net and 12 hits over four playoff contests, but Nashville is facing elimination after Sunday's loss. Forsberg will look to find another gear in Game 5 on Tuesday in Vancouver. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:23 pm
       
    • Falters late in Game 4
      Saros stopped 16 of 20 shots in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canucks in Game 4.

      Advice: The Canucks again failed to direct much traffic at Saros, but he took a loss for the third time in four games in the first round. The 29-year-old couldn't maintain a 3-1 lead late in the third period as Brock Boeser scored twice in the final three minutes to force overtime, where Elias Lindholm completed Vancouver's comeback. Saros has allowed 10 goals on 70 shots through four games in this series, and he'll now be in must-win mode beginning with Tuesday's Game 5 in Vancouver. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:20 pm
