    • Contributes helper in win
      Tkachuk notched an assist, two shots on goal, two hits, two PIM and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Tkachuk ended his four-game point drought by setting up Sam Bennett's goal in the second period. It's been eight games since Tkachuk has scored a goal of his own, but he's continued to provide a physical impact even with the lack of offense. He's produced five goals, 15 assists, 73 shots on net, 55 hits, 23 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 20 playoff appearances. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:26 pm
       
    • Tallies in win
      Bennett scored a goal on two shots, doled out three hits, added two PIM and went minus-2 in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Bennett has four goals and three assists during his six-game point streak. The 27-year-old center hadn't taken a minus rating in any of the previous five games, though he was caught on the ice a few times as the Oilers attempted a comeback in the third period of this one. Bennett has done well in a second-line role this postseason with 13 points, 32 shots on net, 73 hits and a plus-3 rating over 15 appearances. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:14 pm
    • Grabs helper in Game 2
      Bennett registered an assist in a 4-1 Game 2 victory over the Oilers on Monday.

      Advice: Bennett extended his point streak to five games, having notched three goals, three assists and 15 shots over that stretch. In addition, the 27-year-old winger is adding plenty of physicality, dishing out 32 hits in those five outings. Despite averaging 2:07 of ice time with the man advantage, Bennett hasn't recorded a power-play point in his last six appearances. Rotowire.com Tuesday, 6:35 am
    • Plays heavy in win
      Bennett registered an assist, 11 hits, two shots on goal and two PIM in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Bennett is no stranger to heavy play, but he had to be feeling amped up for the series opener of the Stanley Cup Finals. The center has produced 11 points, 28 shots on net, 64 hits and a plus-4 rating through 13 playoff appearances. He remains in a second-line role and should continue to blend offense and physicality as the Panthers look to keep up their high-energy playing style. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:53 pm
