    • 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 59 minutes ago
       
    • Picks up helper in win
      Reinhart logged an assist, three shots on goal, three blocked shots, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Reinhart hadn't logged an assist since he dished out four of them in Game 2 of the second round versus the Bruins. Over the 10 contests in between, the 28-year-old winger posted five goals and 33 shots on net. He's up to 13 points (five on the power play), 68 shots, 44 hits, 27 blocks and a plus-2 rating through 18 playoff appearances in a top-line role. Rotowire.com Today, 8:51 pm
       
    • Dishes pair of assists
      Barkov recorded two assists, two shots on goal, three hits, four blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Barkov has a goal and five assists over his last five contests. The 28-year-old is firmly in the Conn Smythe conversation with six goals, 13 helpers, 47 shots on net, 40 hits, 17 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 18 playoff appearances, to go along with his usual stellar defensive work. Aside from the score, the Panthers didn't control much Saturday, and Barkov may have his hands full with arguably the toughest defensive matchups he's faced all season throughout the rest of the series.

    • Deposits empty-netter
      Luostarinen scored an empty-net goal and added two hits in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Luostarinen has a goal and two assists over his last three games after finishing Saturday's win with an empty-netter. The 25-year-old forward continues to play on the Panthers' third line, so his scoring chances are likely to remain limited. He's picked up a decent seven points with 24 shots on net, 53 hits, 20 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 18 playoff contests in that supporting role. Rotowire.com Today, 8:46 pm
       
    • Adds insurance marker
      Rodrigues scored a goal, doled out three hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Rodrigues tallied on a feed from Sam Bennett early in the second period to put the Panthers up 2-0. The 30-year-old Rodrigues had gone nine games without a goal, picking up four assists and 17 shots on net in that span. The forward is up to nine points, 33 shots on net, 46 hits and a plus-1 rating through 18 playoff contests while playing in a middle-six role. Rotowire.com Today, 8:44 pm
       
    • Opens scoring in Game 1 win
      Verhaeghe scored a goal on three shots, blocked three shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Verhaeghe is up to 10 goals this postseason, four of which he's scored over the last seven games. The 28-year-old forward converted after a spring pass from Aleksander Barkov in the first period, and that goal was all the Panthers needed to get the win. Verhaeghe continues to provide clutch offense in a top-line role with 18 points, 64 shots on net, 22 hits, 18 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 18 playoff outings. Rotowire.com Today, 8:41 pm
       
    • Secures two-year deal
      Thomas inked a two-year, $1.55 million contract with Los Angeles on Thursday.

      Advice: Thomas made his NHL debut this season, drawing into seven regular-season games for the Kings in which he recorded three goals on nine shots, one assist and eight hits while averaging just 8:44 of ice time. While he won't be a lock for an Opening Night roster spot, Thomas should certainly be in the mix heading into training camp in the fall. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:05 am
       
    • Playing days likely over
      Pavelski said Tuesday that he won't play in 2024-25 and is likely to bring an end to his 18-year NHL career, Ryan S. Clark of ESPN.com reports. "This is it for me," Pavelski said.

      Advice: While Pavelski didn't say outright that he was retiring from professional hockey, he acknowledged in his postseason exit interviews that he had known for a while that the 2023-24 season would be his last in the NHL. The second-oldest player in the NHL this past season, Pavelski remained a productive source of offense for Dallas, notching 27 goals and 40 assists while playing in all 82 contests. Before joining Dallas as a free agent in 2019, Pavelski served as a longtime captain for San Jose and represented the club in two All-Star Games. He added two more All-Star appearances to his ledger during his five seasons in Dallas and finishes his career with 476 goals and 592 assists over 1,332 regular-season games.

    • Registers assist Sunday
      Seguin produced an assist, two shots on goal and four hits in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.

      Advice: Seguin finished the postseason with five goals, eight assists, 59 shots on net, 32 hits and a plus-9 rating in a top-six role for the Stars, but he went without a goal in the last five contests. The 32-year-old forward was bothered by a lower-body injury late in the regular season, and it's unclear if that was still a factor in the playoffs, though he certainly played well enough to seem fully healthy. Seguin has three years left on a contract with a $9.85 million cap hit and a no-move clause, so he's a virtual lock to reprise his top-six role with the Stars in 2024-25 even though his offense doesn't match his salary at this stage of his career.
