    • Remains day-to-day
      Henrique (lower body) is questionable for Game 2 against Vancouver on Friday, per Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic on Thursday.

      Advice: Henrique was described as "day-to-day" by coach Kris Knoblauch. The 34-year-old missed Wednesday's 5-4 loss to Vancouver due to the injury. He has a goal and two points in five playoff outings this year. Leon Draisaitl's (undisclosed) status for the upcoming contest against the Canucks is also in question, so if Henrique is available, but Draisaitl isn't, then Henrique might slide into the second-line center slot. Connor Brown will likely play if at least one of them is out, but would probably be a healthy scratch if Henrique and Draisaitl are both able to play. Rotowire.com Today, 2:31 pm
       
    • Questionable for Game 2
      Draisaitl (undisclosed) is day-to-day and questionable for Game 2 against Vancouver on Friday, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports Thursday.

      Advice: Draisaitl dealt with a cramping issue during the second period of Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Canucks, though he was able to return in the third frame. However, the 28-year-old forward then missed Thursday's morning skate, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV. Draisaitl's value to the Oilers can't be overstated. He has five goals and 12 points through six playoff outings. If he's unable to play and Adam Henrique (lower body) returns after missing Game 1, then perhaps Henrique will serve as Edmonton's second-line center. However, if neither forward is available, then Ryan McLeod might be moved into that top-six role. Rotowire.com Today, 2:25 pm
       
    • Grabs two helpers
      Draisaitl recorded a pair of assists in a 5-4 Game 1 loss to Vancouver on Wednesday. According to Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet, Draisaitl was dealing with cramps in the second period before returning in the third.

      Advice: Draisaitl managed just 16:43 of ice time due to his cramping issue, his fewest minutes during a game in the postseason. Still, the world-class center has registered at least a point in all six playoff contests, racking up a combined five goals and seven helpers, including eight power-play points. At this point, there is no reason to think Draisaitl won't be ready for Game 2 on Friday since he was able to return for the third period. Rotowire.com Today, 12:12 pm
       
    • Picks up two assists in Game 1
      Nugent-Hopkins registered two assists in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to Vancouver in Game 1.

      Advice: Nugent-Hopkins earned his third multi-point showing in the span of four contests. He's up to a goal and eight points in six playoff appearances this year. Nugent-Hopkins should continue to serve in a top-six capacity and on the Oilers' first power-play unit. His position with the man advantage is of particular importance to his production -- four of his eight points in the postseason have been recorded on the power play, including one of his assists in the series opener.

    • No timetable for return
      Drouin is making progress in his recovery from a lower-body injury, but there's still no timetable for his return, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports Thursday.

      Advice: Drouin recorded 19 goals and 56 points in 79 regular-season outings in 2023-24. However, he hasn't been available in the playoffs due to the injury. When Drouin is healthy, he will probably serve in a top-six capacity. Rotowire.com Today, 11:03 am
       
    • Game-time call Thursday
      Kiviranta (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Thursday's Game 2 against Dallas, according to Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette.

      Advice: Kiviranta has missed the Avalanche's past three contests due to the injury. He had three goals and nine points in 56 regular-season outings in 2023-24. Kiviranta has also registered an assist in three playoff appearances this year. Rotowire.com Today, 11:00 am
       
    • Ready to rock
      Marchment (undisclosed) will return to the lineup for Thursday's Game 2 versus the Avalanche, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

      Advice: Marchment will likely return to a middle-six role following his six-game absence. The 28-year-old winger racked up 22 goals and 53 points through 81 games during the regular season. Rotowire.com Today, 9:32 am
       
    • Scores twice in Game 1
      Hyman scored a pair of goals in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Canucks in Game 1.

      Advice: Hyman opened the scoring with a power-play marker 2:11 into the first period before extending Edmonton's lead to 4-1 with another tally in the second, sliding a wrister under the pad of Arturs Silovs. Hyman's picked up where he left off in the regular season -- he's scored at least one goal in five of his six playoff games, totaling nine goals and 10 points.

    • Three points in Game 1
      Joshua tallied a goal and two assists in Wednesday's 5-4 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Joshua got Vancouver on the board in the opening minute of the second period, beating Stuart Skinner off a rebound, before adding a pair of assists later in the contest. The goal was Joshua's first since he scored a pair in the opening game of Round 1 against Nashville. The 27-year-old winger now has three goals and seven points through seven games in the playoffs after tallying a career-high 32 points (18 goals, 14 assists) in 63 regular-season contests.
