  • Finds twine in Game 3 win
    Johnston scored a goal on three shots and blocked three shots in Monday's 5-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

    Advice: The goal was Johnston's first in five games, and he was held off the scoresheet in three of his previous four outings. The center's tally gave the Stars a 3-2 lead in the second period. The 21-year-old is up to eight goals, six assists, 51 shots on net, 21 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 16 playoff appearances. Johnston's strong play all over the ice has carried over from the regular season as he cements his status as one of the Stars' top forwards. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:51 pm
     
  • Slides helper in overtime loss
    Rodrigues notched an assist, four shots on goal and two hits in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3.

    Advice: Rodrigues snapped a four-game point drought with his helper on a Gustav Forsling tally in the third period. For the most part, Rodrigues has filled a depth role this postseason, earning seven points, 26 shots on net, 42 hits and a minus-2 rating over 14 contests. The 30-year-old can fill in for top-six minutes when necessary, but with the Panthers at full health, he's likely to remain on the third line. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:15 pm
     
  • Distributes two assists
    Tkachuk recorded two assists (one on the power play), seven shots on goal and two hits in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3.

    Advice: Tkachuk helped out on a Sam Reinhart power-play tally in the first period and also set up Gustav Forsling's equalizer in the third. This was Tkachuk's second multi-point effort in three Eastern Conference Finals games. The winger has played his usual excellent game with five goals, 13 helpers, 53 shots, 39 hits, 19 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 14 playoff outings in a top-six role. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:10 pm
     
  • Strikes twice on power play
    Reinhart scored a pair of power-play goals on three shots and added three hits in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3.

    Advice: Reinhart had 27 power-play tallies in the regular season, but these were just his second and third goals with the man advantage during the playoffs. The 28-year-old ended a three-game slump Sunday and is now at seven markers, 11 points, 58 shots on net, 34 hits, 21 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 14 playoff appearances. Even with the diminished offense, Reinhart's skill set makes him a threat for a big game at any moment, especially as he remains in his usual top-line and first power-play unit roles.

  • Picks up assist in overtime win
    Roslovic recorded an assist in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 3.

    Advice: Roslovic was credited with the secondary helper on Alexander Wennberg's tally in overtime. While he hasn't scored in nine games, Roslovic has picked up three assists over his last four contests. The 27-year-old winger began the playoffs in a top-line role, but he's now on the third line after Filip Chytil took his spot alongside Chris Kreider and Mika Zibanejad. Roslovic is at eight points, 18 shots on net, nine hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 13 playoff appearances, but his scoring chances are likely to be limited as long as he remains in the bottom six.

  • Scores twice in overtime win
    Lafreniere scored two goals on six shots and added three hits in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 3.

He entered Sunday on a four-game point drought, though he added eight shots on net and 12 hits over that span before breaking through with a strong game on the scoresheet. Prior to his slump, Lafreniere was playing a key supporting role for the Rangers. He's at six goals, six helpers, 36 shots, 27 hits and a plus-1 rating over 13 playoff appearances.

    Advice: Foegele snapped an 11-game point drought dating back to Game 2 of the first round. The 28-year-old winger has a steady spot in the lineup, but he's seen a smaller role amid his slump.
