    • Big impact in Game 4 win
      Nurse logged an assist, 12 hits and three blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Stars in Game 4.

      Advice: Nurse has been the target of some ire for his poor play in the playoffs, and he got off to an ugly start in this game. He was on the ice for both of the Stars' first-period tallies, including one that banked into the net off his body. Nurse was able to rebound, picking up a helper on a Ryan McLeod goal, and he followed up with a huge physical performance for the rest of the game. Nurse has just three assists with an ugly minus-12 rating through 16 playoff contests, but he's added 35 hits, 37 blocked shots and 31 shots on net while playing in a top-four role. That non-scoring production still gives him a path to relevance in DFS formats. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:29 pm
       
    • Extends point streak
      Verhaeghe scored his ninth goal of the postseason in Tuesday's 3-2 overtime win versus New York in Game 4.

      Advice: Verhaeghe extended his point streak to five games after potting a goal on the power play in Tuesday's win. The 28-year-old also fired four shots on net in 20:04 of ice time. Verhaeghe is up to six points in this series after notching just two points in Florida's second-round series versus Boston. In 15 postseason appearances to this point, Verhaeghe leads the team in goals with nine and is tied for second on the team in points with 17. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 11:34 pm
       
    • Supplies pair of helpers
      Verhaeghe notched two assists and seven shots on goal in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3.

      Advice: Verhaeghe set up a power-play goal by Sam Reinhart in the first period and also fed Aleksander Barkov for an even-strength tally in the third. The 28-year-old Verhaeghe has two goals and four assists during his active four-game point streak, a big turnaround after he had just one goal over the previous five contests. Overall, he's at 16 points, 55 shots, 20 hits, 16 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 14 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Sunday, 7:13 pm
       
    • Scores lone goal in loss
      Verhaeghe scored a goal and added two shots with a minus-1 rating in 21:03 of ice time in Friday's 2-1 Game 2 overtime loss versus New York.

      Advice: Verhaeghe has points in three consecutive games after potting a goal on the power play in Friday's loss. The 28-year-old is a crucial part of Florida's attack -- he's second on the team in points during the postseason behind only Matthew Tkachuk. Verhaeghe is up to a team-leading eight goals and six assists in 13 playoff contests. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:36 pm
