    • Seals series in double overtime
      Oettinger stopped 29 of 30 shots in Friday's 2-1 double-overtime win over the Avalanche in Game 6.

      Advice: Oettinger was tagged for five goals on 27 shots in Game 5, but he bounced back in a big way to secure the series win Friday. This was the fifth time in 13 contests that he's limited an opponent to a single goal. Oettinger also hasn't lost consecutive games since his first two outings in the first round. He's locked in as the Stars' starter as they await the winner of the Canucks-Oilers series to join them in the Western Conference Finals. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:24 pm
       
    • Set to start Friday
      Oettinger is slated to guard the road goal against Colorado in Game 6 on Friday.

      Advice: Oettinger will look to rebound after allowing five goals on 27 shots en route to a 5-3 loss to the Avalanche in Game 5 on Wednesday. He's 7-5 with a 2.27 GAA and a .914 save percentage in 12 playoff appearances this year. The Avalanche are fantastic offensively, having ranked first in the regular season with 3.68 goals per contest, so they're likely to test Oettinger frequently in the upcoming clash.

    • Leaky in Game 5 loss
      Oettinger stopped 22 of 27 shots in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Avalanche in Game 5.

      Advice: Oettinger let a couple of one-goal leads slip away, and the Avalanche rallied ahead for good in the third period. This loss snapped his three-game winning streak, but the Stars are still ahead 3-2 in the series. Oettinger has won four of his five road games this postseason, allowing a total of seven goals in those contests, so he remains a strong option heading into Game 6 on Friday in Colorado.

    • Garners helper in win
      Manson provided an assist, five shots on goal and eight hits in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Stars in Game 5.

      Advice: Manson's offense has slowed in the second round -- he has two helpers across five games against the Stars after racking up two goals and three assists over five contests versus the Jets in the first round. The 32-year-old defenseman continues to occupy a top-four role for the Avalanche, providing solid defense in addition to his surprising offense. Through 10 playoff appearances, he has 23 shots on net, 35 hits, 19 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-8 rating. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:40 pm
       
    • Slated to start Wednesday
      Oettinger is set to guard the home goal in Wednesday's Game 5 against the Avalanche, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

      Advice: Oettinger is aiming for his fourth consecutive victory after stopping 80 of 85 shots (.941 save percentage) across his previous three wins over Colorado. The netminder has a 7-4 record, 2.02 GAA and .923 save percentage in 11 playoff appearances this year. While Oettinger has been great, the Avalanche have a potent offense, so it wouldn't be surprising if they prove to be quite the challenge for the 25-year-old goaltender as Colorado fights to avoid elimination.

    • Gathers helper in loss
      Hughes recorded an assist and two blocked shots in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 4.

      Advice: Hughes has four assists over his last three games, though this one was his first at even strength in that span. The defenseman is up to nine helpers, 14 shots on net, 10 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating over 10 playoff appearances. Hughes is still providing solid offense and steady defense from a top-pairing role, so the lack of goals shouldn't be a concern for fantasy managers or Canucks fans.

    • Pots goal in loss
      Garland scored a goal on four shots and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 4.

      Advice: Garland got the Canucks on the board in the third period. The winger has two goals and 11 shots on net over four games in the second round after he was held to two assists in six first-round appearances. The winger has added 19 shots, 10 hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 10 playoff outings while filling a middle-six role. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 11:38 pm
       
    • Nets lone goal in Game 5 loss
      Reinhart scored a goal on eight shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Bruins in Game 5.

      Advice: Reinhart has been dialed in with two goals and four assists over five games in the second round. The 28-year-old is up to five goals, nine points, 46 shots on net, 30 hits and a plus-3 rating over 10 playoff contests. Reinhart has earned just two of his postseason points with the man advantage after collecting 34 of his 94 regular-season points on the power play. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 7:37 pm
       
    • Wins again Monday
      Oettinger stopped 24 of 25 shots in Monday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 4.

      Advice: Oettinger has won three starts in a row after dropping the first game in the second round. He limited the damage to a Casey Mittelstadt tally in the second period of Monday's tilt. Through 11 postseason contests, Oettinger is 7-4 with a 2.02 GAA and a .923 save percentage. The Stars lead the Avalanche 3-1 in the series and will have up to three chances to book their tickets to the Western Conference Finals. Game 5 is Wednesday in Dallas. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 12:02 am
