  • 119-85-26 1st Place
    • Surrenders four goals in loss
      Andersen stopped 19 of 23 shots in Sunday's 4-3 loss to the Rangers in Game 1 of the second round.

      Advice: Andersen had not allowed more than three goals in any of his 15 games since returning from a blood clotting issue in early March. He'll likely have his hands full with the Rangers, who won the Metropolitan Division and the Presidents' Trophy in the regular season. Andersen is 4-2 with a 2.54 GAA and an .899 save percentage through six playoff contests. He has probably earned the right to start again and attempt to bounce back in Tuesday's Game 2.

    • Grabs Game 1 win
      Shesterkin stopped 22 of 25 shots in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Hurricanes in Game 1 of the second round.

      Advice: Shesterkin didn't show much rust despite getting a week off after the Rangers swept the Capitals in the first round. He's won seven starts in a row, and this was just the second time in that span he's given up more than two goals. The 28-year-old netminder has allowed 10 goals over five playoff outings and should have no trouble maintaining his place between the pipes in the second round. Rotowire.com Sunday, 4:43 pm
       
    • Guarding goal in Game 1
      Andersen will guard the road net in Game 1 against the Rangers on Sunday, per Walt Ruff of the Hurricanes' official site.

      Advice: Andersen was superb in the first round of the postseason, posting a 4-1 record with a 2.25 GAA and a .912 save percentage against the Islanders. The Rangers rank fifth in the playoffs with 3.75 goals per contest. Rotowire.com Sunday, 12:34 pm
       
    • Guarding cage Sunday
      Shesterkin will get the starting nod for Game 1 at home against the Hurricanes on Sunday, Arthur Staple of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Shesterkin was dominant in a sweep over the Capitals last round. He posted a .931 save percentage and allowed two or fewer goals in three contests. The 28-year-old hasn't lost a game since April 9 and hasn't given up more than three goals in a start since March 26. Shesterkin is 9-2-0 with a 1.98 GAA over his last 11 appearances.

    • Still unavailable
      Demko (knee) won't be available for the start of Vancouver's second-round series against Edmonton, Brendan Batchelor of Sportsnet 650 reports.

      Advice: Demko, who is considered week-to-week, sat out the final five contests of the Canucks' first-round series versus Nashville. It remains unclear when he will be available to return. During Demko's absence, Casey DeSmith and Arturs Silovs have shared time between the pipes. The 23-year-old Silovs could make his fourth straight start in Game 1 versus the Oilers on Wednesday.

    • Punches ticket to next round
      Andersen made 22 saves Tuesday in a 6-3 win over the Islanders in Game 5 of the Hurricanes' first-round series.

      Advice: Carolina never trailed in the game as they cruised into the second round. Andersen has a firm hold on the No. 1 job in net for the 'Canes after beginning the playoffs with a 4-1 record, 2.25 GAA and .912 save percentage, but he'll face a tougher test in the next round against the Presidents' Trophy-winning Rangers.

    • Guarding goal in Game 5
      Andersen will patrol the home crease Tuesday in Game 5 against the Islanders, according to Andrew Gross of Newsday.

      Advice: Andersen is coming off a 32-save effort in a 3-2 double-overtime loss to the Islanders on Saturday in Game 4. He has stopped 103 of 112 shots en route to a 3-1 record this postseason. The Hurricanes can advance to the second round of the playoffs with a victory in Tuesday's contest. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 2:43 pm
       
    • Completes sweep of Capitals
      Shesterkin stopped 23 of 25 shots in Sunday's 4-2 win over the Capitals in Game 4.

      Advice: Shesterkin had no problem guiding the Rangers to a first-round sweep over the Capitals, allowing just seven goals during the series. He's won six straight games dating back to the regular season. Shesterkin will now get a little time to recharge as the Rangers await their second-round opponent, which will be either the Hurricanes or the Islanders. Rotowire.com Apr 28, 8:03 pm
       
    • Tending twine Sunday
      Shesterkin will get the starting nod for Game 4 in Washington on Sunday, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.

      Advice: Shesterkin has led the Rangers to a dominant 3-0 series lead as they look for a sweep Sunday. He's stopped 70 of 75 shots, including a 28-save win in Game 3. Shesterkin is 7-2-0 with a terrific 2.00 GAA and .921 save percentage in nine games this month. Rotowire.com Apr 28, 4:36 pm
