  • Assists on opening goal
    Rodrigues registered a primary assist in Saturday's 2-1 series-clinching win over the Rangers in Game 6.

    Advice: Rodrigues was back on the board in Saturday's win after being held off the scoresheet since Game 3. He added three shots on goal in 15:14 of ice time. Rodrigues isn't relied upon much for offensive production, but he's currently playing on Florida's second line with Matthew Tkachuk and Sam Bennett. Rodrigues is up to three goals and five assists with an even plus-minus rating in 17 playoff contests. Rotowire.com Today, 9:08 pm
     
  • Extends goal streak in win
    Bennett potted his sixth goal of the postseason in Saturday's 2-1 series-clinching win over New York in Game 6.

    Advice: Bennett opened the scoring in the first period after being set up by Evan Rodrigues. Bennett has elevated his game at a crucial point of the postseason -- he has goals in three straight contests and he finished this series with six points in as many games. The 27-year-old added four shots, three hits, one block and a plus-1 rating in 15:27 of ice time Saturday night. Bennett is up to six goals, four assists and a plus-3 rating through 12 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Today, 8:56 pm
     
  • Plucks apple Friday
    Stankoven logged an assist and three shots on goal in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 5.

    Advice: Stankoven has just two helpers over five contests in the Western Conference Finals after picking up four points in the second round. The 21-year-old forward is at eight points, 33 shots on net, 21 hits, 17 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 18 playoff outings. He'll likely continue to see middle-six minutes as the Stars look to keep their season alive in Game 6 on Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:00 pm
     
  • Tips in lone goal in loss
    Johnston scored a goal on two shots in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 5.

    Advice: Johnston has scored in three straight games, but the Stars have just three tallies over their last two contests. The 21-year-old is up to 10 goals, six assists, 55 shots on net, 24 hits and a plus-4 rating through 18 playoff appearances. Johnston's steady offense has made him a reliable option in fantasy in this breakout campaign. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:56 pm
     
  • Garners assist
    Henrique recorded an assist in Friday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5.

    Advice: Henrique has a goal and an assist over three games since he returned from an ankle injury. The 34-year-old forward is up to four points, seven shots on net, 30 hits and an even plus-minus rating through nine playoff appearances. The Oilers have found success with him on the third line, so it's unlikely his role will change heading into Game 6 on Sunday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:48 pm
     
  • Supplies power-play helper
    Draisaitl notched a power-play assist in Friday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5.

    Advice: Draisaitl set up Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' second goal of the game, which stood as the game-winner. It's been a bit of a quiet round for Draisaitl, at least by his lofty standards, as he's posted three points over five contests against the Stars. For the playoffs, he's at 10 goals, 17 helpers, 57 shots on net, 17 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 17 outings. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:43 pm
     
  • Contributes power-play assist
    McDavid logged a power-play assist, five shots on goal and three hits in Friday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5.

    Advice: McDavid helped out on the first of Ryan Nugent-Hopkins' tallies in the contest. The 27-year-old McDavid is up to two goals and six assists over five games in the Western Conference Finals as he continues to lead by example on offense. He's picked up four goals, 25 helpers, 12 power-play points, 53 shots on net, 36 hits and a plus-7 rating through 17 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:40 pm
     
  • Two power-play goals in win
    Nugent-Hopkins scored two power-play goals in Friday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5.

    Advice: The pair of goals were the first power-play tallies for either team in the Western Conference Finals. A lack of power-play production for the Oilers will typically hurt Nugent-Hopkins more than other players -- he's earned nine of his 20 points this postseason with the man advantage, including four of his six goals. The veteran forward has added 24 shots on net, 30 hits and a plus-3 rating over 17 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:34 pm
     
  • Inks two-year deal
    Davidson agreed to terms on a two-year, entry-level contract with Montreal on Friday.

    Advice: Davidson spent the 2023-24 season playing for AHL Laval on a minor-league-only contract, notching 11 goals and five assists in 38 games for the Rocket. Selected by the Montreal organization in the fifth round of the 2022 NHL Draft, the 21-year-old center will likely need some more time developing in the minors before getting a chance to make his NHL debut.
