    • Facing elimination after loss
      Shesterkin turned aside 34 of 36 shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Panthers in Game 5.

      Advice: Shesterkin had another great performance in Thursday's loss, but he wasn't able to steal the win for New York. It's his second consecutive loss after wins in Game 2 and Game 3 of the series. Shesterkin lost consecutive games one other time this postseason against Carolina, and a win followed in that instance. The Rangers will need that trend to continue as they look to stave off elimination in Game 6 on Saturday night in Florida. Overall this postseason, Shesterkin has a record of 10-5 with a 2.36 GAA and a .927 save percentage. Rotowire.com Today, 2:51 am
       
    • Registers two points in win
      Bennett scored a goal and added an assist in Thursday's 3-2 win over the Rangers in Game 5.

      Advice: Bennett was a major contributor in Thursday's win -- he set up Gustav Forsling in the second period to tie the game before potting an empty-netter, which ended up being the game-winner. It was Bennett's first multi-point performance since April 23 against Tampa Bay. The 27-year-old has five points in as many games in this series, and he's back to centering the second line after a recent stint on the third line. This would suggest that Bennett is close to or at full strength after missing five contests across the first two rounds of the postseason. Bennett is up to five goals and nine points with a plus-2 rating in 11 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 2:43 am
       
    • Slated to start in Game 5
      Shesterkin will patrol the home crease versus Florida on Thursday, per Dan Rosen of NHL.com.

      Advice: Shesterkin has been outstanding versus the Panthers in the Eastern Conference Finals, turning aside 120 of 130 shots (.923 save percentage). Shesterkin has been especially strong at home against Florida, allowing only three goals on 53 shots in the opening pair of games. He is 10-4 overall, with a 2.37 GAA in 14 playoff appearances in 2024. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:38 am
       
    • Scores early in loss
      Johnston scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went minus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 4.

      Advice: Johnston scored for the second game in a row, but instead of being part of a comeback, it was the opening goal in a loss. The center has two goals and two assists over his last three contests, giving him 15 points, 53 shots on net, 23 hits and a plus-3 rating through 17 playoff outings. Johnston has shuffled around the lineup at times this postseason, but he's often been at or near the top of the ice time list among Stars forwards. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:44 pm
       
    • Bends twine in Game 4
      Bennett scored a goal on two shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win over the Rangers in Game 4.

      Advice: Since returning from injury, Bennett has notched three goals and two assists, including three power-play points, in his last eight contests. The 27-year-old center has been boom or bust on the shot front over that stretch, having failed to garner a single shot in three of those eight outings. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:23 am
       
    • Otherwordly performance in loss
      Shesterkin turned aside 37 of 40 shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Panthers in Game 4.

      Advice: Shesterkin was excellent in Tuesday's loss, but he couldn't carry New York to a two-game series lead. He was beaten on a perfect shot in overtime by Florida's Sam Reinhart after New York had a defensive breakdown leading up to the goal. Shesterkin has been busy during the postseason -- he's faced at least 25 shots on goal in 13 of 14 of his playoff appearances this year. The 28-year-old has also seen more rubber in each subsequent game of this series, although the last three contests have gone to overtime. So far this postseason, Shesterkin is 10-4 with a 2.33 GAA and a .925 save percentage. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 10:18 pm
       
    • Starting in Game 4
      Shesterkin is set to start on the road versus the Panthers in Game 4 on Tuesday, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports.

      Advice: Shesterkin has won his last two contests after dropping Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals. He's now 10-3 with a 2.33 GAA and a .923 save percentage through 13 playoff outings. A win for Shesterkin and the Rangers on Tuesday would put them one victory away from making the Stanley Cup Finals. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 4:43 pm
       
    • Finds twine in Game 3 win
      Johnston scored a goal on three shots and blocked three shots in Monday's 5-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: The goal was Johnston's first in five games, and he was held off the scoresheet in three of his previous four outings. The center's tally gave the Stars a 3-2 lead in the second period. The 21-year-old is up to eight goals, six assists, 51 shots on net, 21 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 16 playoff appearances. Johnston's strong play all over the ice has carried over from the regular season as he cements his status as one of the Stars' top forwards. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:51 pm
       
    • Makes 33 saves in win
      Shesterkin stopped 33 of 37 shots in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 3.

      Advice: The Panthers controlled the pace of play, but the Rangers countered with an opportunistic offense. Shesterkin gave up four goals for just the second time in 13 playoff appearances but came away with a second consecutive win to put the Rangers ahead 2-1 in the Eastern Conference Finals. He's gone 10-3 with a 2.33 GAA and a .925 save percentage this postseason and has done his part to keep a strong Panthers offense mostly under control. It's a virtual guarantee Shesterkin will start again in Tuesday's Game 4. Rotowire.com Sunday, 6:27 pm
