    • Loses Game 1 in double-overtime
      Oettinger stopped 35 of 38 shots in Thursday's 3-2 double-overtime loss to the Oilers in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals.

      Advice: Oettinger was strong in the contest, but the Oilers attacked quickly and scored on a Connor McDavid goal 32 seconds into the second overtime. This was just the fifth time in 14 playoff outings Oettinger has allowed three or more goals. The Stars have dropped Game 1 of their last seven playoff series, so this is not a reason for concern just yet, but they'll need Oettinger at his best in Saturday's Game 2 to even it up.

    • Sets up game-winner
      Bouchard notched an assist, four shots on goal, a plus-3 rating, two blocked shots and two PIM in Thursday's 3-2 double-overtime win over the Stars in Game 1.

      Advice: Bouchard's attempt was deflected in by Connor McDavid at the 32-second mark of the second overtime. The playoffs have elevated Bouchard's breakout year to the league stage -- he's picked up five goals and 16 helpers over 13 appearances while adding a plus-13 rating and 22 blocks. The 24-year-old defenseman will continue to get his looks in a top-pairing role and on the first power-play unit, where he's earned eight of his 21 points this postseason.

    • Steady in Game 1 win
      Skinner stopped 31 of 33 shots in Thursday's 3-2 double-overtime win over the Stars in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals.

      Advice: Skinner didn't face more than 24 shots in any of his five appearances in the second round versus the Canucks, but the Stars predictably were more active. The 25-year-old was up to the challenge, earning his third straight win. He's allowed just five goals in that span. Skinner's back in the No. 1 job for the Oilers, so he should be expected to start Game 2 on Saturday. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:55 pm
       
    • Tending twine Thursday
      Oettinger will guard the home crease Thursday in Game 1 against the Oilers, according to Nick Cotsonika of NHL.com.

      Advice: Oettinger was outstanding Friday while helping clinch the Stars' second-round series, as he turned aside 29 shots in a 2-1 double-overtime win over Colorado. Oettinger is 8-5 with a 2.09 GAA and a .918 save percentage over the first two rounds of the Stanley Cup playoffs. He went 1-0-1 in two appearances during the regular season versus Edmonton, giving up four goals on 55 shots. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:50 am
       
    • Between pipes for Game 1
      Skinner will tend the twine on the road in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals against the Stars on Thursday, Jason Gregor of Sports 1440 Edmonton reports.

      Advice: Skinner has faced less than 20 shots in each of his last four appearances, posting a 3-1 record to go with a 2.66 GAA and .848 save percentage over that stretch. Despite being benched for Games 4 and 5 of the Oilers' second-round series versus Vancouver, the 25-year-old backstop was able to reclaim the starting role from Calvin Pickard for the final two games of the best-of-seven series. Skinner will likely remain the preferred choice in net for Edmonton during the Western Conference Finals. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:16 am
       
    • Supplies two more assists
      Bouchard logged two assists, three shots on goal and two blocked shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Canucks in Game 7.

      Advice: Bouchard has earned multiple points in four of the last five games. The defenseman is up to five goals, 15 assists, 40 shots, 20 blocks and a plus-10 rating through 12 playoff contests. The 24-year-old will continue to see top-pairing minutes, though he may end up playing in his own zone more against a Stars team that lacks some of the flaws that plagued the Canucks in the postseason.

    • Nabs Game 7 win
      Skinner stopped 15 of 17 shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Canucks in Game 7.

      Advice: Skinner earned back-to-back wins after a two-game benching, but he's still not showing that much to inspire confidence. In those wins, he stopped 29 of 32 shots, a product of the Canucks' lackluster offense more than Skinner's own quality of play. Nonetheless, he's likely done enough to regain the starting job heading into the Western Conference Finals, which begin in Dallas on Thursday. Rotowire.com Monday, 9:04 pm
       
    • Gets starting nod for Game 7
      Skinner will be between the road pipes for Monday's Game 7 clash with the Canucks, Daniel Nugent-Bowman of The Athletic reports.

      Advice: Skinner returned from a two-game benching to stop 14 of 15 shots in a Game 6 win. In each of his last three appearances, the netminder has faced less than 20 shots, though that's not surprising since the Canucks have averaged a league-worst 21.1 shots per game in the postseason. If he can secure the win Monday, Skinner should be the presumptive starter moving forward. Rotowire.com Monday, 10:58 am
       
    • Racks up three points in win
      Bouchard scored a goal on two shots, added two assists, went plus-4 and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Canucks in Game 6.

      Advice: Bouchard had a point in each period en route to earning his third multi-point effort over six second-round contests. The defenseman has been excellent with five goals, 13 helpers, 37 shots on net, 18 blocked shots and a plus-10 rating over 11 playoff outings. Even more impressively, Bouchard has held his own defensively, though he's also clearly benefiting from playing alongside Mattias Ekholm on the top pairing. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:15 pm
