    • Garners helper in Game 1 win
      Montour logged an assist and two hits in Saturday's 3-0 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

      Advice: Montour had the secondary helper on Evan Rodrigues' second-period tally. Through 18 playoff contests, Montour has 10 points, 38 shots on net, 38 hits and 28 blocked shots while playing in a top-four role. His offense has dipped later in the postseason -- he has just two assists over his last 10 outings. Rotowire.com Today, 8:55 pm
    • Falls short in Game 6
      Oettinger gave up two goals on 10 shots in Sunday's season-ending 2-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.

      Advice: The Oilers struck twice on the power play in the first period and then bunkered down. That left Oettinger with little to do over the final 40 minutes, but the Stars couldn't make a comeback to give their goalie a chance to be a hero. Oettinger's postseason comes to a close with a 10-9 record, a 2.24 GAA and a .915 save percentage over 19 appearances. He'll head into 2024-25 as the Stars' No. 1 goalie while playing for a new contract. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:41 pm
    • Starting Sunday
      Oettinger will get the starting nod for Game 6 in Edmonton on Sunday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: Oettinger has allowed seven goals on just 54 shots over his last two starts. The Oilers capitalized on this by winning both games and going up 3-2 in the series. Oettinger owns a .907 save percentage this series after posting a .918 save percentage in the first two series against Vegas and Colorado. He hasn't dropped three straight games since February.

    • Yields three goals
      Oettinger stopped 23 of 26 shots in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 5.

      Advice: Oettinger has taken back-to-back losses for the first time since the first two games of the playoffs, and now the Stars will face elimination in Edmonton on Sunday. The Oilers' power play did most of the damage Friday, with Ryan Nugent-Hopkins scoring twice in the contest after the Stars had killed off all their penalties in the first four games of the series. Oettinger's role as the starter is not in doubt, so he should be back between the pipes for Game 6. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:55 pm
    • Grabs helper in win
      Kane logged an assist in Friday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5.

      Advice: Kane snapped a five-game point drought when he assisted on a Philip Broberg tally in the second period. The 32-year-old Kane has generally been more consistent in the postseason, though he has just eight points over 17 contests. He's added 61 hits, 35 PIM, 44 shots on net and a minus-3 rating while filling a middle-six role. Rotowire.com Friday, 8:45 pm
    • Tending twine Friday
      Oettinger will get the starting nod for Game 5 at home against Edmonton on Friday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: After winning two straight games to put the Stars up 2-1 over the Oilers, Oettinger turned in his worst start of the series and one of his worst performances of the postseason in Game 4 on Wednesday. He coughed up four goals on 28 shots, lowering his postseason save percentage to .917 through 17 games. Oettinger hasn't lost two straight games since the first round of the playoffs against Vegas.

    • Helps out on both goals in loss
      Benn registered two assists and two hits in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Oilers in Game 4.

      Advice: This was Benn's third straight multi-point effort. He's racked up two goals and six assists during a five-game point streak. The 34-year-old forward is up to four goals, 11 assists, 35 shots on net, 46 hits and a plus-4 rating through 17 playoff contests, playing well in a middle-six role in the Stars' balanced offense.

    • Falters in Game 4
      Oettinger allowed four goals on 28 shots in a 5-2 loss to the Oilers in Wednesday's Game 4. The fifth goal was an empty-netter.

      Advice: Oettinger was spotted a 2-0 lead early in the first period, but he couldn't hold back the surge the Oilers generated after that. They got to him twice in both the first and second periods. Oettinger is down to 10-7 with a 2.20 GAA and a .919 save percentage this postseason after allowing three or more goals for the fourth time in the last six contests Wednesday. Despite the recent inconsistent play, the 25-year-old is just about a guarantee to start in Friday's pivotal Game 5 back in Dallas. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 10:42 pm
    • Fills empty cage
      Ekholm scored an empty-net goal on three shots and went plus-3 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Stars in Game 4.

      Advice: Ekholm has had some strong moments in the playoffs, but he entered Wednesday on a six-game point drought. It nearly got to seven contests, but he was able to fire home an empty-netter to seal the Oilers' win, which tied the Western Conference Finals at 2-2. Ekholm is up to four goals, three assists, 28 shots on net, 17 hits, 26 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 16 playoff outings as the Oilers' top shutdown defenseman.
