    • Playing in Game 6
      Kreider (undisclosed) told reporters he would be in action versus the Hurricanes for Game 6 on Thursday, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Kreider didn't play it coy like coach Peter Laviolette, clearly telling reporters that he would be in the lineup Thursday. Through the first five games of this series, the 33-year-old winger has generated two goals and two assists, including three power-play points. Even with concerns about a potential minor injury, Kreider remains a top-end fantasy target heading into Game 6. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:09 am
       
    • Status Thursday uncertain
      Kreider, who took a maintenance day Wednesday, is not a lock to suit up against Carolina in Game 6 on Thursday, though coach Peter Laviolette said it was "a real positive" that Kreider skated Thursday, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

      Advice: Kreider's potential absence could be nothing more than playoff head games being played by the Rangers bench boss, but unfortunately, fantasy players will need to monitor the situation ahead of warmups. In nine playoff appearances, the 33-year-old Kreider has generated four goals and three assists, including three power-play points. If Kreider can't go in Game 6, Will Cuylle could be shifted into a top-six role. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:47 am
       
    • Scores twice in Game 5
      Makar scored two goals on five shots in Wednesday's 5-3 win over the Stars in Game 5.

      Advice: Makar tallied on a power play late in the second period and scored again at even strength in the third. His second goal was the game-winner. Makar has been held off the scoresheet in the Avalanche's three losses in the second round, but he's earned five points in their two wins. The defenseman is up to five goals, 14 points (seven on the power play), 34 shots on net, 20 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 10 playoff outings. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:22 pm
       
    • Undergoes finger surgery
      Letang had surgery to repair a fractured finger and will need eight weeks to recover, the team announced Wednesday.

      Advice: Letang's recovery timeline shouldn't impact his availability for the start of training camp in the fall. Despite the injury concern, the veteran blueliner played a full 82-game season this past year for the first time since 2010-11. While the Montreal native still managed to rack up 51 points in 2023-24, his productivity with the man advantage dropped significantly, as he managed just five power-play points compared to 21 the campaign before.

    • Minus-3 in loss
      Kreider was on the ice for three goals against in Monday's 4-1 loss to Carolina in Game 5.

      Advice: It was a forgettable night for Kreider as he failed to register a point and went minus-3 in the clash. No other Rangers player was on the ice for more than two goals against in Monday's defeat. After starting the postseason with points in six of seven games, Kreider has now failed to find the scoresheet in consecutive contests. The 33-year-old did have two shots on goal and four hits in 18:51 of ice time in his latest tilt. Kreider and the Rangers will have another chance to eliminate the Hurricanes in Game 6 on Thursday.

    • Scores game-winning goal
      Barkov scored his fifth goal of the postseason in Sunday's 3-2 win over Boston in Game 4.

      Advice: Barkov scored the game-winning goal Sunday in Boston to help the Panthers get within one win of advancing to the third round of the postseason. The Finnish superstar diced through the middle of the ice before beating Jeremy Swayman under his right arm almost midway through the third period. The goal extended Barkov's point streak to five games -- he has 11 points over that span. Florida's captain is leading the team in scoring so far this postseason with 13 points in nine games to go along with a plus-4 rating. Rotowire.com Sunday, 8:19 pm
       
    • Generates assist
      Burns logged an assist, three shots on goal, two blocked shots and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rangers in Game 4.

      Advice: Burns has three helpers over his last five contests. Through nine playoff outings, the veteran defenseman has produced four points, 22 shots on net, 15 blocks, six hits and a plus-5 rating. The 39-year-old remains on the top pairing and still sees a healthy amount of power-play time despite an increased role their for Brady Skjei. Rotowire.com Saturday, 9:48 pm
       
    • Nets short-handed tally
      Kreider scored a goal on two shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over the Hurricanes in Game 3.

      Advice: Kreider got New York on the board with a shorthanded marker midway through the second period, backhanding a feed from Mika Zibanejad under the pad of Pyotr Kochetkov. The 33-year-old Kreider now has goals in back-to-back games and four points in his last three contests. He's up to four goals and seven points through seven games in the postseason.

    • Two points, OT winner
      Panarin notched a goal and an assist in Thursday's 3-2 overtime victory over the Hurricanes in Game 3.

      Advice: Panarin set up Alexis Lafreniere's go-ahead tally early in the third period before eventually scoring the game-winner 1:43 into overtime, deflecting a Vincent Trocheck feed between his legs and past Pyotr Kochetkov to give the Rangers the win in Game 3. The 32-year-old Panarin now has three goals and eight points in his last four games. He's up to nine points (four goals, five assists) through seven postseason contests. Rotowire.com Friday, 7:17 am
