    • Provides helper in loss
      Heiskanen recorded an assist and went minus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 4.

      Advice: Heiskanen set up an Esa Lindell tally in the first period. The helper extended Heiskanen's point streak to three games, though he also took a minus rating for the first time since Game 1 of the second round. The Finnish blueliner is up to 16 points, 38 shots on net, 40 blocked shots, 25 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 17 playoff outings in a top-pairing role.

    • Big impact in Game 4 win
      Nurse logged an assist, 12 hits and three blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Stars in Game 4.

      Advice: Nurse has been the target of some ire for his poor play in the playoffs, and he got off to an ugly start in this game. He was on the ice for both of the Stars' first-period tallies, including one that banked into the net off his body. Nurse was able to rebound, picking up a helper on a Ryan McLeod goal, and he followed up with a huge physical performance for the rest of the game. Nurse has just three assists with an ugly minus-12 rating through 16 playoff contests, but he's added 35 hits, 37 blocked shots and 31 shots on net while playing in a top-four role. That non-scoring production still gives him a path to relevance in DFS formats. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:29 pm
       
    • Deposits empty-netter
      Heiskanen scored an empty-net goal, went plus-2 and blocked five shots in Monday's 5-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Heiskanen has a point in each of the last two contests, and he's blocked 10 shots over three games in the Western Conference Finals. The 24-year-old defenseman is up to 15 points, 37 shots on net, 39 blocks, 25 hits and a plus-2 rating over 16 playoff outings. Heiskanen was caught on the ice for opponents' goals early in the playoffs, but he hasn't logged a minus rating since Game 1 of the second round versus the Avalanche despite lining up against some of the best players in the league.

    • Hands out helper
      Ceci logged an assist in Saturday's 3-1 loss to the Stars in Game 2.

      Advice: Ceci set up a Connor Brown goal in the first period. With a goal and an assist over his last three games, Ceci has doubled his scoring output for the playoffs. He's at four points, 15 shots on net, 19 hits, 16 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating over 14 appearances while playing in a bottom-four role. Rotowire.com May 25, 9:18 pm
       
    • Gathers helper in win
      Heiskanen logged an assist, two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Oilers in Game 2.

      Advice: Heiskanen had the secondary helper on the Stars' opening goal, finding Wyatt Johnston, who then sent Jamie Benn in for the tally on a 2-on-1. The 24-year-old Heiskanen had gone two contests without a point for just the second time in the playoffs. The defenseman has five goals, nine helpers, 36 shots on net, 34 blocked shots, 24 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 15 postseason outings. Heiskanen has been hard-matched with Connor McDavid through two games in the Western Conference Finals, and that could make it tough for the Stars' shutdown blueliner to make steady contributions on offense.
