Player Notes

  • Deemed day-to-day
    Marchment (undisclosed) is considered day-to-day ahead of Saturday's Game 3 versus Vegas, according to Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine.

    Advice: Marchment was injured in the third period during Wednesday's Game 2 and did not return. The Stars recalled Mavrik Bourque on Friday, giving the team an insurance policy in case Marchment or Radek Faksa (undisclosed) is unable to play Saturday. Rotowire.com Today, 10:23 am
  • Out of action Saturday
    Lomberg (illness) will not be in the lineup Saturday for Game 4 versus Tampa Bay, George Richards of Florida Hockey Now reports.

    Advice: Lomberg has missed the last two games and coach Paul Maurice said Friday that there will be no lineup changes for Game 4. Lomberg was pointless in Game 1, but he had four hits in only 6:32 of ice time. He managed five goals, two assists, 80 PIM and 179 hits in 75 games during the regular season.

  • Suiting up Friday
    Milano (undisclosed) will be in action against the Rangers for Game 3 on Friday, Tom Gulitti of NHL.com reports.

    Advice: Milano has scored just two goals in his last 13 outings while registering a mere 10 shots over that span. Nicolas Aube-Kubel figures to find himself watching from the press box with Milano available to play Friday. Rotowire.com Today, 8:18 am
  • Goal streak at three games
    Stamkos scored a goal on two shots and added six hits, two blocked shots and a minus-2 rating Thursday in a 5-3 loss to the Panthers in Game 3 of the Lightning's first-round series.

    Advice: The 34-year-old has done his best to keep Tampa Bay afloat, finding the back of the net in three straight games to begin the playoffs, but his team still faces the prospect of getting swept after losing all three contests. Stamkos also has a couple career milestones in his sights -- he needs two more playoff goals for 50 in his caree, and one more playoff point for 100. He might need to reach both marks Saturday in Game 4 in order for the Lightning to stay alive. Rotowire.com Today, 8:04 am
  • Lights lamp twice in Game 3 win
    Tkachuk scored two goals on five shots while adding five hits, two blocked shots and a plus-1 rating Thursday in a 5-3 win over the Lightning in Game 3.

    Advice: The 26-year-old winger opened and closed the scoring on the night, beating Andrei Vasilevskiy midway through the first period before firing home an empty-netter late in the third. Tkachuk has three goals and five points to fuel the Panthers' 3-0 start to the series, and Florida will try to secure the sweep Saturday back in Tampa Bay. Rotowire.com Today, 7:47 am
