    • Scores hat trick
      Nichushkin scored three times on five shots in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Jets.

      Advice: Nichushkin deposited two power-play goals in the second period to give the Avalanche a 4-1 lead going into the third period. He added an empty-net goal late in the third frame for the hatrick and his sixth goal of the playoffs. The 29-year-old winger added two hits, three blocked shots, five shots on net and a plus-2 rating in 22:28 of ice time. Including the regular season, Nichushkin is on a six-game point streak, scoring eight goals and one assist over that span. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:33 pm
       
    • Finds twine on power play
      Nichushkin scored a power-play goal on three shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Jets in Game 3.

      Advice: Nichushkin has scored a goal in each of the Avalanche's first three playoff contests this year, and he's added 11 shots on net, seven hits and a minus-1 rating. Dating back to the regular season, the winger has five goals and an assist during a five-game point streak. He was on the top line Friday and should remain productive in that role if he stays there, though Zach Parise has also gotten looks in that spot. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:23 pm
       
    • Scores twice in overtime win
      Kempe scored two goals on seven shots, went plus-3 and added three hits in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Oilers in Game 2.

      Advice: Kempe's pair of goals came in the first period. The 27-year-old has picked up three straight multi-point efforts, earning four goals and two assists in that span. He's added 12 shots on net and seven hits through two playoff outings. Kempe remains locked in to a top-line role with ice time in all situations, so he should continue to be productive in a first-round series that's showed little patience for defense.

    • Deposits empty-netter
      Nichushkin scored an empty-net goal on five shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Jets in Game 2.

      Advice: Nichushkin had to work for the empty-netter, earning his fifth point over his last four outings. The 29-year-old winger started the contest on the second line but saw some shifts on the first unit as well when Zach Parise got shuffled down the lineup. Nichushkin can provide solid offense as long as he's in the top six, and he's also a good source of hits with five over the first two contests of the postseason.

    • Undergoes shoulder surgery
      Meier will have arthroscopic surgery on his shoulder but is expected to be ready for training camp ahead of the 2024-25 campaign, the Devils announced Tuesday.

      Advice: Despite several injury concerns, Meier still managed to rack up 28 goals and 24 helpers in 69 games this season, including 17 power-play points. The Swiss international should be a near-lock to maintain a top-six role playing alongside Nico Hischier or Jack Hughes (shoulder) next season. It wouldn't be surprising to see Meier find his way back above the 30-goal and 60-point milestones provided he stays healthy. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 7:23 am

    • Goal, assist in loss
      Kempe scored a goal on five shots, dished an assist and added four hits in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Kempe has earned back-to-back multi-point efforts. The 27-year-old continues to play on the Kings' top line, where he had a career-high 75 points in 77 contests during the regular season. Kempe should maintain that role, as well as a spot on both special-teams units, during the playoffs. Rotowire.com Monday, 11:44 pm
       
    • Scores early in loss
      Nichushkin scored a goal on three shots, added two PIM and doled out three hits in Sunday's 7-6 loss to the Jets in Game 1.

      Advice: Nichushkin has scored three times over the last two games. His goal set the Avalanche off on the right foot Sunday, but they couldn't keep pace with an opportunistic attack from the Jets. Nichushkin racked up a career-high 28 goals with 25 helpers, 158 shots on net and 74 hits over 54 regular-season appearances and should be a top-six fixture during the postseason.

    • Practicing in full
      Mantha (undisclosed) practiced without an injury designation Sunday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

      Advice: Matnha missed the final two games of the regular season, but he appears ready to go ahead of the Knights' playoff opener Monday versus Dallas. The 29-year-old winger had 23 goals and 44 points across 74 games this year between Vegas and Washington. Rotowire.com Apr 21, 11:17 am
       
    • Supplies assist Thursday
      Kuzmenko registered an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Sharks.

      Advice: Kuzmenko was one of the Flames' top players in April with seven goals and six assists over nine contests. The 28-year-old winger had more points in 29 games with the Flames (25) than he had in 43 contests with the Canucks (21) prior to a midseason trade. He added 121 shots on net and a minus-9 rating this season. Kuzmenko's offense can be streaky, but he could be a top-six fit for the Flames heading into 2024-25. Rotowire.com Apr 19, 10:51 am
