  • 133-74-23 1st Place
    • Stays warm with helper
      McNabb recorded an assist and four hits in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Stars in Game 4.

      Advice: McNabb has two goals, two assists, seven shots on net, 11 hits and 14 blocked shots over four playoff outings. His strong production at both ends of the ice has earned him a steady top-four role, and it's help to make up for relatively quiet starts to the playoffs for Alex Pietrangelo and Shea Theodore. McNabb can't be expected to maintain this level of offense in the long run, but he's worth a look in DFS while he's got a hot stick. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:06 pm
       
    • Takes loss Monday
      Thompson stopped 28 of 31 shots in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Stars in Game 4. The fourth goal was an empty-netter.

      Advice: Thompson has now lost back-to-back starts, though it's hardly his fault after putting in solid efforts. The 27-year-old has given up 10 goals on 127 shots through four playoff contests. Thompson's status as the starting goalie in the playoffs could come into question if he doesn't get back into the win column soon, but it's unclear if head coach Bruce Cassidy will stay the course or turn to Adin Hill for Game 5 on Wednesday.

    • Two more assists Monday
      Tkachuk registered two assists and six shots on goal in Monday's 6-1 win over the Lightning in Game 5.

      Advice: Tkachuk helped out on third-period goals by Aleksander Barkov and Carter Verhaeghe. This was Tkachuk's fourth multi-point effort in five playoff games -- he has accumulated three goals and six assists in the postseason. The winger should continue to see heavy usage in a top-six role while providing solid offense and physical play. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:11 pm
       
    • First off ahead of Game 4
      Thompson was the first goalie off the ice at the morning skate, per Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal, indicating he will patrol the home crease Monday in Game 4 against Dallas.

      Advice: Thompson is coming off a 43-save performance in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Stars in Game 3. He has stopped 89 of 96 shots in Vegas' first-round series en route to a 2-1 record. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:58 am
       
    • Steals Game 4 win
      Skinner recorded a 33-save shutout in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Kings in Game 4.

      Advice: The Oilers looked like the worse team for the first time in the series, but Skinner stepped up to deliver his first playoff shutout and his third win in four first-round games. The 25-year-old was able to make an Evan Bouchard power-play goal hold for the win Sunday. Skinner has given up 11 goals over four games versus the Kings, and he'll likely be in goal again for Wednesday's Game 5 in Edmonton. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:31 pm
       
    • Back in net Sunday
      Skinner will guard the road cage Sunday in Game 4 against the Kings, Oilers play-by-by announcer Jack Michaels reports.

      Advice: Skinner is coming off a 27-save performance in a 6-1 win over the Kings in Game 3 as the Oilers took a 2-1 series lead. The 25-year-old netminder has an .890 save percentage through the first three games in the postseason. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:31 am
       
    • Two helpers in Game 4 loss
      Tkachuk collected two assists Saturday during a 6-3 loss to the Lightning in Game 4.

      Advice: Both helpers came in the second period as the Panthers tried to rally from an early 3-0 deficit, to no avail. Tkachuk has been outstanding to begin the postseason, and he leads Florida with seven points (three goals, four assists) through four games. He'll look to extend his active point streak to eight games Monday in Game 5, and lead his team into the second round. Rotowire.com Sunday, 6:24 am
       
    • Continues to impress in playoffs
      McNabb scored a goal on four shots, dished an assist, added four hits and blocked five shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Stars in Game 3.

      Advice: McNabb got the Golden Knights on the board midway through the second period, and he set up a Jack Eichel shorthanded tally just a few minutes later. The 33-year-old McNabb has two goals, one assist, six shots on net, seven hits and 13 blocked shots through three playoff outings in a top-four role. He's known more for his physical play but had a career-high 26 points (four goals, 22 assists) in 82 games during the regular season. McNabb has carried over that success into the early stages of the postseason. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:57 pm
       
    • Strong effort in overtime loss
      Thompson allowed three goals on 46 shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Stars in Game 3.

      Advice: Thompson's performance was a big reason the game got deep into overtime, as he came up with a handful of big saves against a desperate Stars team. It wasn't enough in the end, as Wyatt Johnston closed the scoring with a top-shelf goal in the extra session. Thompson has allowed seven goals on 96 shots while going 2-1 in the first-round series, and it's unlikely this loss will cost him the starting job. Game 4 is Monday in Vegas.
