  • Plays through injury
    Karlsson played through a lower-body injury during the Golden Knights' first-round playoff series versus the Stars, which concluded with a 2-1 loss in Game 7 on Sunday, Danny Webster of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.

    Advice: The injury wasn't bad enough to keep Karlsson off the ice, but it was obvious he was struggling, as he was limited to two helpers over seven games. He added nine shots on net, eight hits, five blocked shots and a plus-4 rating from a third-line role. Karlsson was a 60-point contributor in the regular season, and he should fill a middle-six role again in 2024-25. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:40 pm

  • Supplies assist
    Smith logged an assist, two shots on goal and four hits in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 7.

    Advice: Smith set up Radek Faksa's third-period tally, which was the game-winner. After being a scratch for the first two contests of the playoffs, Smith contributed two helpers, 10 shots on net, eight hits and a plus-1 rating over the last five games of the first round. The 34-year-old winger should continue to play in a fourth-line role when he's in the lineup. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:33 pm
     
  • Returns with series-clinching goal
    Faksa scored a goal and added four hits in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Golden Knights in Game 7.

    Advice: Faksa missed three games due to an undisclosed injury and was deemed a healthy scratch for Friday's Game 6. The 30-year-old then drew back in Sunday and came up clutch with the game-winning goal just 44 seconds into the third period. It was his first point in nine games. Faksa plays in mainly a fourth-line role, but he's had no fewer than 19 points in any of his full-length NHL campaigns, so he can provide some supplementary offense.

The 20-year-old center finished the first round with four goals and three assists in seven contests, to go with 27 shots on net, 11 hits and an even plus-minus rating. He's played both as the third-line center and first-line right wing, giving the Stars a couple of roster constructions that work heading into the second round versus the Avalanche.
