    • Tending twine in Game 4
      Georgiev will protect the home net Sunday in Game 4 against Winnipeg, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Georgiev has stopped 50 of 54 shots in two straight wins following a disastrous showing in Game 1 versus the Jets. With a victory in Sunday's contest, the Avalanche could take a 3-1 series lead back to Winnipeg for Game 5 on Tuesday. Rotowire.com 15 minutes ago
       
    • Three points in Game 4
      Hagel scored two goals, one shorthanded and the other the game-winner, and added a power-play assist Saturday in a 6-3 victory over the Panthers in Game 4.

      Advice: After setting up Steven Stamkos for the game's opening tally midway through the first period, Hagel followed with his own goal a few minutes later before giving the Lightning a 4-1 lead in the second. The 25-year-old had managed only one goal and zero assists through the first three games of the series, and his offensive eruption helped Tampa Bay avoid a first-round sweep. Hagel will look to stay locked in Monday for Game 5. Rotowire.com Today, 6:37 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 Yesterday, 11:57 pm
       
    • Dishes pair of helpers
      Robertson recorded two assists and four shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Golden Knights in Game 3.

      Advice: Robertson set up both of Wyatt Johnston's tallies in the contest, including the game-winner at 16:23 of overtime. Through three playoff outings, Robertson has four points, nine shots on net, six hits and an even plus-minus rating. The Stars found success with a top line of Robertson, Johnston and Roope Hintz, which could end up being an elite trio for the team if they're going to continue to fight back against the Golden Knights in this first-round series that Vegas leads 2-1.

    • Torched for six more goals
      Talbot allowed six goals on 40 shots in Friday's 6-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Talbot has given up a total of 16 tallies over three games in the first round, so he's lucky the Kings are only down 2-1 in the series. The 36-year-old's play has been lackluster, but he's not getting a ton of help from his defense. Game 4 is Sunday, but it's unclear if the Kings will stick with Talbot much longer if he continues to struggle, which could open the door for David Rittich to get a look.

    • Finds twine on power play
      Nichushkin scored a power-play goal on three shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Jets in Game 3.

      Advice: Nichushkin has scored a goal in each of the Avalanche's first three playoff contests this year, and he's added 11 shots on net, seven hits and a minus-1 rating. Dating back to the regular season, the winger has five goals and an assist during a five-game point streak. He was on the top line Friday and should remain productive in that role if he stays there, though Zach Parise has also gotten looks in that spot. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:23 pm
       
    • Wins Game 3
      Georgiev stopped 22 of 24 shots in Friday's 6-2 win over the Jets in Game 3.

      Advice: Georgiev appears to have gotten himself back on track, allowing just four goals on 54 shots over the past two games, both being Avalanche wins. He had a rough second period Friday, but the Avalanche's offense took over in the third. Now that he has consecutive wins for the first time in over a month, there should be less chatter of head coach Jared Bednar switching away from Georgiev going forward. Game 4 is Sunday in Colorado.

    • Set to start Friday
      Talbot is expected to start at home against Edmonton in Game 3 on Friday, per Dennis Bernstein of The Fourth Period.

      Advice: Talbot has struggled against the Oilers, allowing 10 goals on 75 shots (.867 save percentage) over two playoff contests. Edmonton ranked fourth offensively with 3.56 goals per game in the regular season, so the Oilers are likely to continue to give the veteran goaltender trouble, especially because Talbot's been floundering for a while now. He has a 2.92 GAA and an .897 save percentage over his past 17 outings dating back to March 7. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:40 am
       
    • Gets starting nod Friday
      Georgiev will be between the pipes at home for Game 3 versus Winnipeg on Friday, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports.

      Advice: Georgiev was downright bad in Game 1 on Sunday, giving up seven goals on 23 shots (.696 save percentage), but he bounced back in Game 2 to even up the best-of-seven series. With Justus Annunen (illness) ready to serve as the backup Friday, a bad performance in Game 3 could see Georgiev relegated to the No. 2 role going forward. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:24 am
