    • Scores first of series
      Tarasenko scored a goal that stood as the game-winner in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Rangers in Game 6.

      Advice: Tarasenko registered his first point of the series when he gave Florida a 2-0 lead just before the midway point of the third period. The 32-year-old has faced his share of struggles during the postseason -- he was recently demoted to the third line after serving mostly in a top-six role since he was traded from Ottawa. He did have a crucial marker against his former club in Game 6, so perhaps this game serves as a confidence booster for Tarasenko ahead of the Stanley Cup Finals. The Russian native has three goals and three assists and a plus-4 rating in 17 postseason contests. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:22 pm
       
    • Helps eliminate Rangers
      Bobrovsky turned aside 23 of 24 shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 series-clinching victory over New York in Game 6.

      Advice: Bobrovsky faced less than 24 shots on net for the third time over the Panthers' last four contests. Florida's style of play has allowed the netminder not to be overworked en route to the team's second consecutive trip to the Stanley Cup Finals. The Panthers will face either Edmonton or Dallas in the final round of the postseason. Bob is 12-5 with a 2.20 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 17 playoff appearances this year.

    • Starting in Game 6
      Bobrovsky will patrol the home crease versus the Rangers on Saturday, according to Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site.

      Advice: Bobrovsky was stellar during the regular season, going 36-17-4 with a 2.37 GAA and a .915 save percentage. That success has continued in the playoffs, as the Russian netminder is 11-5 with a 2.27 GAA and a .905 save percentage. If the Panthers emerge victorious Saturday, the team will compete in the Stanley Cup Finals for a second straight year. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:41 am
       
    • Snags helper in win
      Ekblad recorded an assist in Thursday's 3-2 victory over the Rangers in Game 5.

      Advice: Ekblad was able to bring his six-game pointless streak to a close with his helper Thursday but remains mired in a 29-game goal drought dating back to Feb. 20 versus the Senators. While the blueliner should continue to register plenty of hits and blocks in the postseason, fantasy players probably shouldn't be banking on him suddenly producing points regularly.

    • Steady once again in road win
      Bobrovsky made 25 saves on 27 shots in Thursday's 3-2 win against New York in Game 5.

      Advice: Bobrovsky was his usual self between the pipes Thursday, helping the Panthers inch closer to advancing to the Stanley Cup Finals. The 35-year-old has allowed two goals or less in nine of his last 10 appearances. With Florida rarely allowing more than 30 shots on goal during this playoff run, Bobrovsky has been able to perform at an extremely high level. Florida has also consistently been able to provide Bobrovsky with offensive support -- they've scored less than two goals only three times this postseason and have not been shutout. Bobrovsky is 11-5 with a 2.27 GAA and a .905 save percentage in 16 postseason appearances. Rotowire.com Friday, 2:48 am
       
    • Starting in Game 5
      Bobrovsky will defend the road crease against the Rangers on Thursday, Jameson Olive of the Panthers' official site reports.

      Advice: Bobrovsky has been terrific in the playoffs, starting all 15 games, going 10-5 with a sparkling 2.29 GAA. Bobrovsky was stellar Tuesday, stopping 21 shots in a 3-2 overtime win at home versus the Rangers, as the Panthers tied the series at two games apiece. Bobrovsky has allowed nine goals on 100 shots in the first four games of the best-of-seven series. Rotowire.com Thursday, 9:29 am
       
    • Helps out on both goals in loss
      Benn registered two assists and two hits in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 4.

      Advice: This was Benn's third straight multi-point effort. He's racked up two goals and six assists during a five-game point streak. The 34-year-old forward is up to four goals, 11 assists, 35 shots on net, 46 hits and a plus-4 rating through 17 playoff contests, playing well in a middle-six role in the Stars' balanced offense.

    • Helps Florida tie series
      Bobrovsky made 21 saves on 23 shots in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win against New York in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

      Advice: Bobrovsky was busy in the first period of Tuesday's win with 13 saves, but he only faced 10 more shots over the final 40 minutes of the contest. This was a result of Florida controlling the play over their opponent again -- it's the ninth time in the last 10 outings that Bobrovsky has faced less than 30 shots on goal. The 35-year-old netminder has a record of 10-5 with a 2.31 GAA and a .904 save percentage in 15 postseason appearances this year. Bob and the Panthers will be in New York on Thursday for Game 5.

    • Slated to start Game 4
      Bobrovsky will guard the home crease Tuesday in Game 4 against the Rangers, per Steve Goldstein of Bally Sports Florida.

      Advice: Bobrovsky has been solid thus far during this series against the Rangers, recording a .909 save percentage and allowing only seven goals in three games, though he gave up five in Game 3. The 35-year-old will perhaps need a stellar performance Tuesday for the Panthers to tie this series at two games apiece. He will have the home crowd in front of him for one of the biggest games in recent franchise history. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 7:50 am
