    • Starting Game 3
      Shesterkin will guard the road goal versus the Hurricanes in Thursday's Game 3, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Shesterkin is 6-0 with a 2.01 GAA and a .929 save percentage over six playoff contests, so it's logical the Rangers will stick with him as this second-round series shifts to Carolina. He earned a 28-save shutout win in his lone appearance in Carolina this season, and he's gone 4-1-0 with 13 goals allowed over five total contests versus the Hurricanes in 2023-24.

    • Traveling with team
      Bennett (upper body) will make the trip to Boston ahead of Friday's Game 3 versus the Bruins, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Bennett practiced with the extras Thursday, and if he's able to get on the ice with the main squad for Friday's morning skate, there's a chance he'll be available for Game 3. Bennett picked up two points through the first two games of the Panthers' first-round series versus Tampa Bay before suffering his upper-body injury. Rotowire.com Today, 8:57 am
       
    • Yanked in Game 2
      Swayman was handed the loss Wednesday in Game 2 against the Panthers after allowing four goals on 23 shots before being replaced by Linus Ullmark early in the third period.

      Advice: Swayman blanked Florida in the first period before surrendering three goals in the second, including a Gustav Forsling tally with just two seconds left in the frame. Swayman would give up a fourth goal 1:28 into the third before he was replaced by Ullmark. It's the first time in eight postseason starts that Swayman's allowed more than two goals -- he still sports an impressive .942 save percentage with a 1.81 GAA during the playoffs. Swayman earned the primary starting job in the postseason after splitting the workload with Ullmark for most of the year, though the Bruins may elect to make a change prior to Friday's Game 3 on Friday.

    • Slated to start
      Swayman was the first goalie off the ice at morning skate, per Steve Conroy of the Boston Herald, putting him on track to guard the road goal in Wednesday's Game 2 versus Florida.

      Advice: Swayman was exceptional in Monday's Game 1, turning aside 38 of 39 shots en route to a convincing 5-1 win. As long as the 25-year-old netminder continues to play at this level, it seems unlikely coach Jim Montgomery will go back to the rotation between Swayman and Linus Ullmark he utilized to open the Bruins' first-round series versus Toronto.

    • Still sidelined
      Bennett (upper body) isn't on the ice for morning skate and isn't expected to be available for Wednesday's Game 2 against Boston, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.

      Advice: Bennett will miss a fifth straight contest due to his upper-body injury. Anton Lundell, who's been hot with four helpers in his last five games, should continue to center the second line until Bennett is ready to return. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:46 am
       
    • Three points to open series
      Makar tallied a goal and two assists in Tuesday's 4-3 Game 1 overtime win over the Stars.

      Advice: Makar logged a pair of power-play points in the second period, setting up a Valeri Nichushkin marker before scoring later in the frame. Makar added a third point with another assist on Nathan MacKinnon's game-tying goal in the opening seconds of the third. The 25-year-old Makar has at least one point in all six of his postseason contests so far, totaling three goals and nine assists over that stretch. He posted 90 points (21 goals, 69 assists) in 77 regular-season games. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:19 am
       
    • Solid in Game 2 win
      Shesterkin turned aside 54 of 57 shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-3 double-overtime win over Carolina in Game 2.

      Advice: Shesterkin extended his undefeated streak in the playoffs to six games, even with Carolina peppering him in this one. It's the second contest in a row Shesterkin has let in at least three goals, but the Rangers have given him enough offensive support to keep his streak going. Overall this postseason, Shesterkin is 6-0 with a 2.01 GAA and a .929 save percentage through six outings. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 9:20 pm
       
    • Set to start Tuesday
      Shesterkin is expected to start at home against Carolina in Game 2 on Tuesday, per Colin Stephenson of Newsday.

      Advice: Shesterkin stopped 22 of 25 shots en route to a 4-3 victory over the Hurricanes in Game 1 on Sunday. He's opened the playoffs with five straight victories while allowing just 10 goals on 126 shots (.921 save percentage). However, the Hurricanes ranked eighth offensively in the regular season with 3.38 goals per contest, so they're likely to continue to be a challenging adversary for Shesterkin.

    • Stellar in Game 1 win
      Swayman stopped 38 of 39 shots in Monday's 5-1 win over the Panthers in Game 1 of the second round.

      Advice: A turnover led to the Panthers' lone goal in the second period, which was scored by Matthew Tkachuk. Swayman was otherwise stellar again, as he allowed a single goal for the fourth time in seven playoffs outings. His other three starts have seen him give up just two tallies each time. Swayman is 5-2 with a 1.42 GAA and a .955 save percentage this postseason, and he should be considered a near lock to start in Game 2 on Wednesday. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:55 pm
