Overview

Poti said he will not be returning to the Capitals, stating that he never felt he was in the Caps' plans this season.
Recommendation: Poti returned to the NHL this season after missing two years due to a fractured pelvis and multiple groin injuries. Poti is confident in his ability to play next year, despite being limited to 16 games this year due to neck and back injuries.

Rask stopped 23 of 24 shots Tuesday to give Boston a 3-0 lead over the Rangers in their Eastern Conference Semifinal series.
Recommendation: Though Rask wasn't challenged very often in this one, he was sharp against the Rangers' few quality opportunities. He seems to be getting better and better as he goes along -- a scary sign for the opposition.

Redden (undisclosed) will not play in Tuesday's Game 3 against the Rangers.
Recommendation: Redden will sit out Tuesday for the fifth time in six games. He was able to practice Monday, so there is a chance he could be back on the ice for Thursday's Game 4.
