    • Returns with two helpers
      Hintz logged two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 5-3 win over the Oilers in Game 3.

      Advice: Hintz set up the first two goals of Jason Robertson's hat trick. This was Hintz's return from a four-game absence due to an upper-body injury, and he looked much like his usual self in 17:48 of ice time in a top-line role. The center is up to two goals, six helpers, 15 shots on net, 16 hits and a plus-1 rating over 12 playoff appearances. Hintz should see significant ice time for the Stars moving forward, so he'll be a solid option in DFS formats. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:58 pm
       
    • Suiting up Monday
      Hintz (upper body) is in Monday's Game 3 lineup against the Oilers, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

      Advice: Hintz is set to return from a four-game absence after suffering an injury during Game 4 of the second round against Colorado. He has six points in 11 postseason games, including five points in four appearances last series. The 27-year-old will slot back into his usual top-six role. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 5:04 pm

      Hintz (upper body) will be a game-time decision Monday in Game 3 versus Edmonton, per Mike Zeisberger of NHL.com.

      Advice: If Hintz returns from a four-game absence in Monday's contest, he will likely occupy a top-six role and see time on the top power-play unit. He has produced two goals, six points, 13 shots on net, seven blocked shots and 15 hits in 11 outings this postseason. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 9:39 am
       
    • Distributes two assists
      Tkachuk recorded two assists (one on the power play), seven shots on goal and two hits in Sunday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Rangers in Game 3.

      Advice: Tkachuk helped out on a Sam Reinhart power-play tally in the first period and also set up Gustav Forsling's equalizer in the third. This was Tkachuk's second multi-point effort in three Eastern Conference Finals games. The winger has played his usual excellent game with five goals, 13 helpers, 53 shots, 39 hits, 19 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 14 playoff outings in a top-six role.

    • Poised to travel with team
      Hintz (upper body) will accompany the Stars to Edmonton ahead of Monday's Game 3, per Taylor Baird of NHL.com.

      Advice: Hintz could return from a four-game absence in Monday's contest. Coach Pete DeBoer suggested Sunday that Hintz might have played as early as Saturday in Game 2 if it had been a Game 7. Hintz has notched two goals, six points, 13 shots on net, seven blocked shots and 15 hits in 11 outings this postseason. If the 27-year-old forward is cleared to return, he will likely occupy a top-six role and see power-play time. Rotowire.com Sunday, 11:35 am
       
    • Not playing Saturday
      Hintz (upper body) did not take the ice for warmups and won't play in Saturday's Game 2 versus the Oilers, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

      Advice: Hintz's absence will reach a fourth game, but it's encouraging that he's progressed into the range of being a game-time decision. With Hintz still out, Tyler Seguin will center Jason Robertson and Evgenii Dadonov for this contest. Hintz's next chance to play is Monday's Game 3 in Edmonton. Rotowire.com Saturday, 4:40 pm
       
    • Game-time decision Saturday
      Hintz (upper body) will be a game-time decision in Game 2 versus Edmonton on Saturday, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

      Advice: Hintz partook in the optional morning skate and is nearing a return after missing three games. If he gets the green light to play in Saturday's contest, the talented center will likely replace Wyatt Johnston on the top line with Jason Robertson while returning to the top power-play unit. Hintz has two goals and six points in 11 playoff games, which includes a four-point effort in Game 2 versus Colorado on May 9. Rotowire.com Saturday, 8:42 am
       
    • Could play Saturday
      Hintz (upper body) may be available to face Edmonton in Game 2 on Saturday after coach Pete DeBoer told reporters Hintz was "skating and possible for tomorrow" Friday, Brian Rea of Bally Sports Southwest reports.

      Advice: Hintz has already missed the team's last three games due to his upper-body issue but appears to be nearing a return to action. Prior to getting hurt, the 27-year-old center had tallied two goals on 13 shots and four assists in his previous 11 postseason contests. Once cleared to play, Hintz figures to slot back into a first-line role in addition to linking up with the No. 1 power-play unit. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:03 am
       
    • Scores opening goal of series
      Tkachuk registered a goal and an assist in Wednesday's 3-0 win over New York in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

      Advice: Tkachuk's goal to open the scoring in Wednesday's win wound up being the game-winner. The 26-year-old's marker was his first since Game 1 of Florida's second-round series against Boston. In addition to recording two points against New York, Tkachuk had three hits, one shot and a plus-3 rating in 18:49 of ice time Wednesday. The multi-point effort marks the sixth time in 12 games this postseason that Tkachuk has notched at least two points. The star winger is leading the way for the Panthers during the playoffs with five goals and 11 assists in 12 contests so far. Rotowire.com Thursday, 10:41 am
