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

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.

Draisaitl logged a power-play assist and two PIM in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Stars in Game 6.

With just four points over six games in the Western Conference Finals, Draisaitl actually had a quiet round. It didn't ultimately matter, as Connor McDavid picked up the slack to help the Oilers make the Stanley Cup Finals for the first time since 2006. Draisaitl is at 10 goals, 18 helpers, 57 shots on goal, 17 hits and 12 PIM through 18 playoff outings. The Panthers will likely have Aleksander Barkov hard-matched with McDavid in the Stanley Cup Finals, so there could be more room for Draisaitl to make an impact on his own line.

Hyman scored a power-play goal on three shots in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Stars in Game 6.

Hyman finished the Western Conference Finlas with three goals and two assists over six games. He continues to be a force on the top line and first power-play unit with 14 goals, 18 points and 76 shots on net through 18 playoff contests. Five of Hyman's goals have come with the man advantage.

McDavid scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Stars in Game 6.

Both of McDavid's points came on the power play in the first period. He dazzled with his handiwork through the Stars' defense on the opening tally 4:17 into the game before setting up Zach Hyman later in the first. After somewhat taking a backseat to Leon Draisaitl in the first two rounds, McDavid exploded with three goals and seven helpers over six contests in the Western Conference Finals. He'll get his first taste of Stanley Cup Finals action when the puck drops in Florida for Game 1 on Saturday.

Trocheck supplied a helper in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Panthers in Game 6.

Trocheck had the primary assist on Artemi Panarin's marker late in the third period, which cut Florida's lead to one. Trocheck did not record a shot on goal Saturday, but he did have a whopping 10 hits and a plus-1 rating in 23:59 of ice time, the most of any Rangers forward. The 30-year-old center had a fantastic postseason, finishing with eight goals and 20 points in 16 appearances. Trocheck doubled up on his previous career high in the playoffs -- he recorded 10 points during the 2021-22 season with Carolina.

Rodrigues registered a primary helper in Saturday's 2-1 series-clinching win over the Rangers in Game 6.

Rodrigues was back on the board in Saturday's win after being held off the scoresheet since Game 3. He added three shots on net in 15:14 of ice time. Rodrigues isn't relied upon much for offensive production, but he's currently slotted on Florida's second line with Matthew Tkachuk and Sam Bennett. Rodrigues is up to three goals and five assists with an even plus-minus rating in 17 playoff contests.

Marchment scored a goal on two shots and added five hits in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.

Marchment batted home a pass from Tyler Seguin while crashing the net in the third period. That goal briefly gave the Stars hope for a comeback, but a tying goal never materialized. Marchment had three goals and two assists over 13 playoff outings, though it's unclear if he had any lingering effects from an undisclosed injury he suffered in the first round. The 28-year-old winger has two years left on his current contract, so it's expected he'll around to provide grit and depth scoring in a middle-six role for the Stars in 2024-25.

Panarin scored his fifth goal of the postseason in Saturday's 2-1 season-ending loss to Florida in Game 6.

Panarin hadn't scored in eight consecutive contests prior to Saturday before cutting Florida's lead to one in the final minutes of Game 6. It was only his fourth point of the series after he produced 11 points in 10 outings across the first two rounds. The 32-year-old concludes the postseason with 15 points (five goals) and a minus-2 rating in 16 appearances. Panarin has two years remaining on his contract with the Rangers heading into the offseason.

Tarasenko scored a goal that stood as the game-winner in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Rangers in Game 6.

Tarasenko registered his first point of the series when he gave Florida a 2-0 lead just before the midway point of the third period. The 32-year-old has faced his share of struggles during the postseason -- he was recently demoted to the third line after serving mostly in a top-six role since he was traded from Ottawa. He did have a crucial marker against his former club in Game 6, so perhaps this game serves as a confidence booster for Tarasenko ahead of the Stanley Cup Finals. The Russian native has three goals and three assists and a plus-4 rating in 17 postseason contests.

Vesey (upper body) is at practice Saturday in a non-contact jersey, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.

Vesey was injured eight days ago in Game 2 against Florida on May 24 and was deemed week-to-week. The 31-year-old winger has a goal and two assists through 12 appearances this postseason.

Wheeler (undisclosed) is not at Saturday's morning skate ahead of Game 6 against Florida, Vince Z. Mercogliano of USA Today reports.

According to a source, Wheeler is banged up, leaving his status unclear for Saturday's must-win contest. He has suited up in only one game since Feb. 15 because of a leg injury. Wheeler logged just 9:18 of ice time in Game 4 versus the Panthers on Tuesday before sitting out Thursday's Game 5. Anton Blidh has been filling in for Wheeler during Saturday's practice, but the 29-year-old Blidh probably won't be in the lineup even if Wheeler is unavailable.

Kane logged an assist in Friday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5.

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.

Tanev logged an assist, four hits and two PIM in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.

Tanev avoided missing time after suffering an injury in Game 4 versus the Oilers. The defenseman did his job this postseason, picking up two assists to go with 73 blocked shots, 31 hits and a plus-7 rating over 19 playoff contests. Even at 34 years old, Tanev should have a healthy market as a steady and reliable shutdown defenseman if he makes it to free agency July 1.

Bouchard logged two power-play assists and blocked four shots in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Stars in Game 6.

Bouchard was held partly in check early in the series, but he racked up four helpers over the last two games as the Oilers' power play returned to its usual level of dominance. The defenseman is up to six goals, 21 helpers, 12 power-play points, 54 shots on net, 33 blocks and a plus-14 rating through 18 playoff outings. The Panthers' high pace and heavy play will be the next hurdle for Bouchard to face amid his breakout postseason as an all-around top-tier defenseman.

Fox recorded his eighth assist of the playoffs in Saturday's 2-1 season-ending loss against Florida in Game 6.

Fox had the secondary assist on Artemi Panarin's goal late in the third period, but New York couldn't pull off the comeback. Fox added one shot, three hits, two blocks and a plus-1 rating in 24:11 of ice time. The 26-year-old led New York's blueliners in points this postseason with eight. That is not surprising, but he did not score a goal in 16 contests. There's speculation that the star defenseman could've been battling an injury, but there should be clarification on that front in the coming days.

Hakanpaa (lower body) won't be an option for Game 6 against Edmonton on Sunday, per Stars radio host Owen Newkirk .

Hakanpaa will miss his 32nd straight contest, including his 19th consecutive playoff outing. It remains unclear when he will be ready to return to the lineup. Hakanpaa registered two goals, 12 points, 56 shots on net, 196 hits and 123 blocked shots in 64 regular-season outings during the 2023-24 campaign.

Harley notched an assist and blocked six shots in Friday's 3-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 5.

The six blocks were one off Harley's playoff high. More notably, he got on the scoresheet for the second game in a row, assisting on a Wyatt Johnston tally in the third period to break up Stuart Skinner's shutout bid. Harley has been limited to four helpers over 18 playoff outings, but he's added 50 blocks, 27 shots on net and a plus-8 rating in a top-four role.

Bouchard registered two power-play assists, two shots on goal and three blocked shots in Friday's 3-1 win over the Stars in Game 5.

This was Bouchard's first multi-point game in the Western Conference Finals, and it's likely no coincidence that it happened alongside the Oilers' power play coming back to life. The defenseman is up to 25 points (10 on the power play) through 17 playoff contests. He's added 53 shots on net, 29 blocked shots and a plus-15 rating while seeing a large role on the top pairing.

Oettinger gave up two goals on 10 shots in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Oilers in Game 6.

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.

Skinner allowed one goal on 35 shots in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Stars in Game 6 of the Western Conference Finals.

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.

Skinner will face the Stars at home for Game 6 on Sunday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

Skinner has won two straight games to put the Oilers up 3-2 over Dallas. In those two victories, he stopped a combined 39 of 42 shots. He's struggled at times this postseason and has an .890 save percentage through 15 playoff appearances. However, he's been much better against the Stars, posting a 2.08 GAA and .908 save percentage through five contests.

Oettinger will get the starting nod for Game 6 in Edmonton on Sunday, Tracey Myers of NHL.com reports.

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.

Shesterkin made 32 saves on 34 shots in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Panthers in Game 6.

Shesterkin was peppered again Saturday night, it marked the fourth consecutive outing that the netminder faced at least 34 shots on goal. The Rangers were just two wins away from reaching the Stanley Cup Finals, but they were out-shot in 13 of 16 postseason contests. New York also allowed 524 shots on goal in those 16 games, which highlights just how important Shesterkin was to the team's success. The 28-year-old concludes the 2023-24 postseason at 10-6 with a 2.34 GAA and a .927 save percentage.

Bobrovsky turned aside 23 of 24 shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 series-clinching victory over New York in Game 6.

Bobrovsky faced less than 24 shots on net for the third time over the Panthers' last four contests. Florida's style of play has allowed the netminder not to be overworked en route to the team's second consecutive trip to the Stanley Cup Finals. The Panthers will face either Edmonton or Dallas in the final round of the postseason. Bob is 12-5 with a 2.20 GAA and a .908 save percentage in 17 playoff appearances this year.
