    • Returns with two helpers
      Hintz logged two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 5-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Hintz set up the first two goals of Jason Robertson's hat trick. This was Hintz's return from a four-game absence due to an upper-body injury, and he looked much like his usual self in 17:48 of ice time in a top-line role. The center is up to two goals, six helpers, 15 shots on net, 16 hits and a plus-1 rating over 12 playoff appearances. Hintz should see significant ice time for the Stars moving forward, so he'll be a solid option in DFS formats. Rotowire.com Monday, 8:58 pm
       
    • Deposits empty-netter
      Heiskanen scored an empty-net goal, went plus-2 and blocked five shots in Monday's 5-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Heiskanen has a point in each of the last two contests, and he's blocked 10 shots over three games in the Western Conference Finals. The 24-year-old defenseman is up to 15 points, 37 shots on net, 39 blocks, 25 hits and a plus-2 rating over 16 playoff outings. Heiskanen was caught on the ice for opponents' goals early in the playoffs, but he hasn't logged a minus rating since Game 1 of the second round versus the Avalanche despite lining up against some of the best players in the league.

    • Suiting up Monday
      Hintz (upper body) is in Monday's Game 3 lineup against the Oilers, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

      Advice: Hintz is set to return from a four-game absence after suffering an injury during Game 4 of the second round against Colorado. He has six points in 11 postseason games, including five points in four appearances last series. The 27-year-old will slot back into his usual top-six role. Rotowire.com Monday, 5:04 pm
       
    • Game-time decision
      Hintz (upper body) will be a game-time decision Monday in Game 3 versus Edmonton, per Mike Zeisberger of NHL.com.

      Advice: If Hintz returns from a four-game absence in Monday's contest, he will likely occupy a top-six role and see time on the top power-play unit. He has produced two goals, six points, 13 shots on net, seven blocked shots and 15 hits in 11 outings this postseason. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:39 am
       
    • Makes 33 saves in win
      Shesterkin stopped 33 of 37 shots in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 3.

      Advice: The Panthers controlled the pace of play, but the Rangers countered with an opportunistic offense. Shesterkin gave up four goals for just the second time in 13 playoff appearances but came away with a second consecutive win to put the Rangers ahead 2-1 in the Eastern Conference Finals. He's gone 10-3 with a 2.33 GAA and a .925 save percentage this postseason and has done his part to keep a strong Panthers offense mostly under control. It's a virtual guarantee Shesterkin will start again in Tuesday's Game 4. Rotowire.com Sunday, 6:27 pm
       
    • Tending twine in Game 3
      Shesterkin will defend the road net in Game 3 versus Florida on Sunday, according to Mollie Walker of the New York Post.

      Advice: Shesterkin is coming off a 26-save performance in Friday's 2-1 overtime win over the Panthers in Game 2. He has earned a 9-3 record with a 2.22 GAA and a .926 save percentage across 12 starts this postseason. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:44 am
       
    • Poised to travel with team
      Hintz (upper body) will accompany the Stars to Edmonton ahead of Monday's Game 3, per Taylor Baird of NHL.com.

      Advice: Hintz could return from a four-game absence in Monday's contest. Coach Pete DeBoer suggested Sunday that Hintz might have played as early as Saturday in Game 2 if it had been a Game 7. Hintz has notched two goals, six points, 13 shots on net, seven blocked shots and 15 hits in 11 outings this postseason. If the 27-year-old forward is cleared to return, he will likely occupy a top-six role and see power-play time. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:35 am
       
    • Gathers helper in win
      Heiskanen logged an assist, two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Oilers in Game 2.

      Advice: Heiskanen had the secondary helper on the Stars' opening goal, finding Wyatt Johnston, who then sent Jamie Benn in for the tally on a 2-on-1. The 24-year-old Heiskanen had gone two contests without a point for just the second time in the playoffs. The defenseman has five goals, nine helpers, 36 shots on net, 34 blocked shots, 24 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 15 postseason outings. Heiskanen has been hard-matched with Connor McDavid through two games in the Western Conference Finals, and that could make it tough for the Stars' shutdown blueliner to make steady contributions on offense.

    • Not playing Saturday
      Hintz (upper body) did not take the ice for warmups and won't play in Saturday's Game 2 versus the Oilers, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

      Advice: Hintz's absence will reach a fourth game, but it's encouraging that he's progressed into the range of being a game-time decision. With Hintz still out, Tyler Seguin will center Jason Robertson and Evgenii Dadonov for this contest. Hintz's next chance to play is Monday's Game 3 in Edmonton. Rotowire.com Saturday, 4:40 pm
