  • Not playing Monday
    Lomberg won't play Monday in Game 5 against Tampa Bay despite being cleared to return from an illness, according to Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.

    Advice: Lomberg participated in the morning skate after partaking in Sunday's practice but needs a bit more time to get back up to game speed. He picked up four hits in 6:32 of ice time in Game 1 before missing three straight contests. Lomberg had five goals, seven points, 80 PIM and 179 hits in 75 outings during the 2023-24 regular season.

  • Fails to score in loss
    Moore couldn't put one past the keeper despite registering five shots on goal in Sunday's 1-0 Game 4 loss to Edmonton.

    Advice: Moore and the Kings couldn't figure out Oilers' netminder Stuart Skinner, who recorded his first shutout since Dec. 28 versus the Sharks. Through the first four postseason contests, the 29-year-old Moore has notched just one point, a far cry from his career-best regular season in which he set new highs in goals (31) and points (57). If the Kings are going to climb out of their 3-1 series deficit, Moore is going to have to start contributing offensively. Rotowire.com Today, 7:04 am
     
  • Sets up decisive goal
    Draisaitl recorded a power-play assist, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Sunday's 1-0 win over the Kings in Game 4.

    Advice: Draisaitl has eight points over four playoff outings, and six of those points have come with the man advantage. He set up Evan Bouchard's second-period marker Sunday, which was enough to give the Oilers a 3-1 lead in this first-round series. While Draisaitl's 5-on-5 offense has been lacking, he continues to be a reliable scorer while seeing big minutes in the top six and on the power play. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 11:34 pm

During the first round, Lafreniere produced four assists, seven shots on net, eight hits and a plus-1 rating over four contests.

  • Tallies in loss
    Nyquist scored a goal and went minus-2 in Sunday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Canucks in Game 4.

    Advice: Nyquist put the Predators ahead 2-1 in the second period with his first goal of the playoffs. The 34-year-old winger has added two assists, three shots on net, four hits and a minus-4 rating over four appearances. Nyquist is still steady on offense, but the Predators have been unable to protect narrow leads well in the first round. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:25 pm

    Advice: Forsberg's tally 12 seconds into the third period put the Predators up 3-1, but they couldn't hold the lead. The 29-year-old has done his part with two goals, two assists, 12 shots on net and 12 hits over four playoff contests, but Nashville is facing elimination after Sunday's loss. Forsberg will look to find another gear in Game 5 on Tuesday in Vancouver. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 7:23 pm
