    • Guarding crease Monday
      Shesterkin will get the starting nod for Game 5 at home against the Hurricanes, Colin Stephenson of Newsday reports.

      Advice: Shesterkin was riding a seven-game winning streak to begin the playoffs before Carolina finally beat him in Game 4 on Saturday. He allowed four goals on 31 shots in the loss, the first time this postseason he's allowed more than three. He's registered an impressive .925 save percentage while facing 160 shots this series.

    • Sets up opening goal
      Heiskanen provided an assist in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

      Advice: Heiskanen set up Logan Stankoven's first playoff goal at 18:39 of the first period. With four points over three games in the second round, Heiskanen is looking like himself again after his offense tailed off late in the first round. He's at three goals, six helpers, 26 shots on net, 20 blocked shots, 17 hits and a minus-6 rating through 10 playoff appearances. He can be a big factor on offense, though his surface stats defensively are likely to suffer from dealing with tough matchups. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:15 pm
       
    • Grabs helper in win
      Robertson logged an assist and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

      Advice: Robertson has a helper in all three second-round games so far, though this was his first to not come on the power play. The 24-year-old winger is up to eight points, 19 shots on net, 18 hits, 12 blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 10 playoff contests. He's not dominating in the postseason, but the Stars' balanced offense doesn't require Robertson to hit lofty scoring totals. Rotowire.com Saturday, 11:10 pm
       
    • Takes first playoff loss
      Shesterkin allowed four goals on 31 shots in Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Hurricanes in Game 4.

      Advice: The defeat snapped Shesterkin's nine-game winning streak, which included the first seven contests of the Rangers' playoff run. He allowed three goals in the first period, and while the Rangers covered that damage, Brady Skjei's power-play tally late in the third was decisive. Shesterkin also hadn't allowed more than three goals in any of his last 14 appearances dating back to March 28. The 28-year-old has been exceptional so far, but a few bumps in the road can be expected in the postseason. Look for him to be back between the pipes on home ice in Monday's Game 5.

    • Pots goal in win
      Aho scored a goal and added four hits in Saturday's 4-3 win over the Rangers in Game 4.

      Advice: Aho snapped a five-game goal drought with his first-period tally, which gave the Hurricanes a 3-1 lead. The center has been much more involved in the second round with seven points over four contests. He's up to three goals, seven helpers, 26 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-4 rating through nine playoff outings. Rotowire.com Saturday, 9:26 pm
       
    • Set to start Saturday
      Shesterkin will start on the road against Carolina in Game 4 on Saturday, per Chip Alexander of The Raleigh News & Observer

      Advice: Shesterkin will aim to earn his eighth straight victory to open the 2024 playoffs. He's posted a 2.01 GAA and a .935 save percentage across his first seven postseason wins this year. Although the Rangers have an opportunity to complete the second-round sweep of Carolina, the Hurricanes have kept things close, forcing the last two contests to go to overtime while firing a combined 104 shots on Shesterkin over that span. As a result, it wouldn't be surprising to see the 28-year-old netminder challenged often with the Hurricanes' playoff hopes on the line. Rotowire.com Saturday, 3:33 pm
       
    • Picks up assist Thursday
      Aho recorded an assist in a 3-2 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3 on Thursday.

      Advice: He helped on Andrei Svechnikov's game-tying marker late in the third period, but Aho's efforts ultimately failed to prevent Carolina from falling behind 3-0 in the second-round series. Although the Hurricanes have come up short against the Rangers, Aho has excelled with six assists through three contests in the series. That gives him two goals and nine points across eight playoff outings this year after setting a career high of 89 points (36 goals) in 78 regular-season games. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:22 am
       
    • Stellar again in Game 3
      Shesterkin stopped 45 of 47 shots in Thursday's 3-2 overtime win over Carolina in Game 3.

      Advice: Shesterkin was the difference maker Thursday as the Rangers picked up the overtime win despite being outshot 47 to 25. The 28-year-old netminder's now stopped 99 of 104 shots in his last two starts, improving to a perfect 7-0-0 in the postseason with an outstanding .942 save percentage and 1.78 GAA. Shesterkin will almost certainly be back between the pipes Saturday with the Rangers looking for a sweep in Game 4 on the road. Rotowire.com Friday, 7:10 am
       
    • Helps out on power play
      Robertson recorded a power-play assist and three blocked shots in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Avalanche in Game 2.

      Advice: Robertson helped out on the first of Miro Heiskanen's two goals in the game. This was Robertson's second straight game with an assist, and he's up to seven points (four on the power play) through nine playoff contests. The first-line winger has added 18 shots on net, 17 hits, 11 blocked shots and a minus-6 rating during the postseason. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:10 pm
