  • 123-82-25 6th Place
    • Gets no help in Game 1 loss
      Skinner allowed two goals on 17 shots in a 3-0 loss to the Panthers in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals on Saturday. The third goal was an empty-netter.

      Advice: Skinner had the lighter workload of the two goalies, but Sergei Bobrovsky stood on his head while the Panthers got a goal in each period. The 25-year-old Skinner has allowed two or fewer goals in eight of his last nine games, going 6-3 in that span. He's now 11-6 with a 2.47 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 17 playoff appearances. Game 2 is in Florida on Monday, and it's likely Skinner will get the start since he can't be blamed for the series-opening loss. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:34 pm
       
    • Tending twine in Game 1
      Skinner will guard the road net in Game 1 against Florida on Saturday, Ryan Frankson of the Oilers' official site reports.

      Advice: Skinner has stopped 72 of 76 shots during his three-game winning streak. He has posted a record of 11-5 with a 2.50 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 16 appearances this postseason. The Panthers rank fourth in the 2024 playoffs with 3.24 goals per game.

      Advice: Bobrovsky has been solid this postseason, posting a .908 save percentage with a 2.20 GAA through 17 games. He'll now take on an Oilers team that has averaged 3.50 goals per game in the playoffs. Rotowire.com Yesterday, 8:41 am
       
    • Underwent surgery in April
      Drysdale underwent surgery in April to address a significant lower-body injury, Adam Kimelman of NHL.com reports.

      Advice: The exact nature of Drysdale's injury wasn't revealed, but general manager Daniel Briere suggested it was a lower-body issue. Drysdale is expected to be ready to play by the start of the 2024-24 season, but given the severity of the injury, fantasy managers will want to track his status through training camp.

    • 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
       
    • Signs two-year extension
      Carlile signed a two-year, two-way contract with the Lightning on Thursday.

      Advice: Carlile played most of the 2023-24 season with AHL Syracuse, where the defenseman had seven goals and 27 points in 61 regular-season games. He made his NHL debut Jan. 4 versus Minnesota, blocking a pair of shots in 11:27 of ice time. Carlile will likely spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors.

    • 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.

    • Cracks rib in postseason
      Lindgren said Tuesday that he suffered a cracked rib in the Rangers' May 16 win over the Hurricanes in the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, Mollie Walker of the New York Post reports.

      Advice: Lindgren was held out of a few practices leading up to the Eastern Conference Finals due to the injury, but he proceeded to play in all six of games in the Rangers' eventual 4-2 series loss to the Panthers, tallying two assists while averaging 19:07 in ice time. The 26-year-old will get some extended time to heal up over the offseason and should be fully cleared well in advance of training camp. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:24 pm
       
    • Sends Edmonton to Cup Finals
      Skinner allowed one goal on 35 shots in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Stars in Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals.

      Advice: The Oilers scored twice on their 10 shots, and Skinner made sure that was enough to win with one of his best performances of the playoffs. This was just the second time the Stars were able to put up 30-plus shots, but Skinner won both of those contests. He's now 11-5 with a 2.50 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 16 contests. Skinner is almost certain to be between the pipes for Game 1 of the Stanley Cup Finals versus the Panthers on Saturday in Florida. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:26 pm
