    • Tending twine Saturday
      Andersen will patrol the visiting crease against the Islanders on Saturday in Game 4, Cory Lavalette of the North State Journal reports.

      Advice: Andersen is a perfect 3-0 versus the Islanders in the opening round. He has allowed six goals on 77 shots (.922 save percentage) as the Hurricanes have shut down the Islanders in the series. Andersen was also outstanding in the regular season, going 13-2-0 with a 1.84 GAA and a .932 save percentage in 16 appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 9:01 am
       
    • Sharp in Game 3 win
      Shesterkin made 28 saves Friday during a 3-1 win over the Capitals in Game 3 of the Rangers' first-round series.

      Advice: John Carlson beat Shesterkin from the blue line with a knuckleball shot less than six minutes into the first period, but it only got the Rangers netminder mad, and he shut the door on Washington the rest of the way. Shesterkin has allowed only five goals on 75 shots while going 3-0 to begin the Rangers' postseason run, and they'll look for the sweep Sunday in Game 4. Rotowire.com Today, 7:53 am
       
    • Snags power-play helper
      Scheifele recorded a power-play assist, two shots on goal and a minus-2 rating in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Avalanche in Game 3.

      Advice: Scheifele has two goals, three assists, six shots on net and eight hits through three playoff outings. The 31-year-old center has been productive alongside the rest of the top line, but it hasn't been enough to match the depth scoring the Avalanche have gotten so far. Scheifele will look to keep his offense rolling in Game 4 on Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 10:59 pm
       
    • Slated to face Capitals
      Shesterkin is slated to start on the road against Washington in Game 3 on Friday, according to Seth Orlemann of USA Today.

      Advice: Shesterkin won the first two contests of the series while stopping 42 of 46 shots (.913 save percentage). The Capitals ranked 28th offensively with just 2.63 goals per game in the regular season, so it's not surprising that they haven't given Shesterkin much trouble in the first round. That said, the series moving to Washington might help the Capitals, who were 22-12-7 at home compared to 18-19-4 on the road during the 2023-24 campaign. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:10 am
       
    • Another win in Game 3
      Andersen stopped 29 of 31 shots in Thursday's 3-2 victory over the Islanders in Game 3.

      Advice: After alternating starts with Pyotr Kochetkov late in the regular season, Andersen's now started each of the first three games of Carolina's first-round series against the Islanders, posting an excellent .922 save percentage while helping the Canes jump out to a convincing 3-0 series lead. The 34-year-old netminder figures to be back in goal Saturday as Carolina will look for an opening-series sweep in Game 4 on the road. Rotowire.com Thursday, 7:57 pm
       
    • Set to start Thursday
      Andersen is expected to start on the road against the Islanders in Game 3 on Thursday, per Andrew Gross of Newsday.

      Advice: Andersen won the first two outings of this first-round series while stopping 42 of 46 shots (.913 save percentage). He was fantastic in the regular season, posting a 13-2-0 record, 1.84 GAA and .932 save percentage in 16 appearances. The Islanders weren't particularly strong offensively during the 2023-24 campaign, finishing 22nd with 2.99 goals per contest, so Andersen likely won't be challenged too much in the first round.

    • Travels with team
      Demko (knee) joined the Canucks for their trip to Nashville for Games 3 and 4 despite being labeled week-to-week, Dan Murphy of Sportsnet reports Thursday.

      Advice: Given Demko's week-to-week timeline, his presence on the trip is likely more about being around the team and perhaps helping Casey DeSmith in an off-ice capacity than him potentially returning to action soon. Another update on Demko will likely surface once he's upgraded to day-to-day. Rotowire.com Thursday, 8:14 am
       
    • Two points in Game 2 win
      Eichel scored an empty-net goal on five shots, added an assist, went plus-2 and logged two hits in Wednesday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 2.

      Advice: Eichel has four points over two playoff outings, and he's earned three goals and six helpers during his six-game point streak. The center set up Jonathan Marchessault's game-tying goal in the first period before adding the empty-netter in the third. Eichel led the 2023 postseason with 26 points to contribute to the Golden Knights' first Stanley Cup championship, and he's off to a great start during their title defense.

    • Considered week-to-week
      Demko (undisclosed) is regarded as week-to-week, coach Rick Tocchet told Thomas Drance of The Athletic on Wednesday.

      Advice: Demko was a key part of the Canucks' regular-season success, posting a 35-14-2 record, 2.45 GAA and .918 save percentage in 51 contests. He also stopped 20 of 22 shots en route to a 4-2 victory over the Predators in Game 1 on Sunday. The Canucks will likely lean on Casey DeSmith during Demko's absence. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:52 am
