Robertson scored a power-play goal on seven shots in Saturday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Wild in Game 4.

Robertson has scored in every game of this first-round series, compiling four goals, two assists and 23 shots on net over four contests. The winger has earned four of those six points on the power play, which has been an area of strength for the Stars so far. Robertson will look to extend the goal streak again as the series heads back to Dallas for a pivotal Game 5 on Tuesday.

Lyon led the Sabres out for warmups Sunday and will get another start in goal for Game 4 against the Bruins, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

After coming on in relief of Ukko-Pekka Luukkonen in the third period of Game 2 and looking sharp in Game 3, Lyon earned himself another start in net for Game 4. The 33-year-old Lyon has stopped 31 of 32 shots in nearly four periods of postseason play, a big improvement after allowing 13 goals over his last three starts in the regular season.

Sturm registered an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Stars in Game 4.

Sturm set up a Marcus Foligno goal in the third period. This effort ended a five-game point drought for Sturm, who has played the last two contests while both of Yakov Trenin (upper body) and Mats Zuccarello (upper body) are out of the lineup. Sturm was limited to 11 points over 49 regular-season appearances this year, and prior to this campaign, he had a total of five points in 30 career playoff outings.

Foligno scored a goal on two shots and doled out seven hits in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Stars in Game 4.

Foligno earned his first point of the series when he scored at 14:40 of the third period to tie the game at 2-2. The winger has filled a bottom-six role, earning a goal, four shots, 24 hits and four PIM across four playoff contests. Prior to this playoff run, he had collected 11 points over 34 postseason appearances across six separate years.

Boldy scored a goal on four shots and added three hits in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Stars in Game 4.

Boldy tallied at 19:31 of overtime to help the Wild even up the series at 2-2. The 25-year-old has three goals, two assists, 21 shots on net, eight hits and a plus-6 rating over four playoff contests. Boldy broke out with 42 goals and 85 points over 76 regular-season appearances, so his continued scoring success in the playoffs should come as no surprise.

Swayman will patrol the home crease against Buffalo on Sunday in Game 4, per Belle Fraser of the Bruins' official site.

Swayman has a 1-2 record this postseason, allowing only seven goals on 101 shots. He went 19-7-1 with a 2.18 GAA and a .920 save percentage across 28 appearances on home ice during the 2025-26 regular season. Despite going 0-for-14 on the power play, Buffalo has scored nine goals through three games during the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Greig will have a hearing with the NHL Department of Player Safety for roughing Sean Walker during Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Hurricanes.

The incident in question surrounds a post-whistle scrum in which Greig punched Walker while Walker was engaged with another player. The 23-year-old Greig was not penalized on the play, but the Department of Player Safety will take a look regardless. The Senators were eliminated with Saturday's loss, so if a suspension is handed down, Greig would have to serve it at the beginning of next season.

Connelly has been recalled from AHL Henderson by the Golden Knights, the team announced Sunday.

Connelly has been one of the top scorers for Henderson, the Golden Knights' AHL affiliate, registering 49 points (14 goals, 35 assists) in 46 games. With about a week in between games after the Silver Knights picked up an opening-round playoff sweep, Connelly will get a chance to spend some time with the big club. Barring an injury up front for Vegas, it's likely that the 20-year-old will be sent back to Henderson in time for Game 1 of the Calder Cup Pacific Division Finals against AHL Colorado on May 1.

Bowman was recalled from AHL Henderson on Sunday.

Bowman contributed eight goals, 26 points, 75 shots on net, 24 blocked shots and 19 hits in 54 NHL appearances during the 2025-26 regular season. He could be an option for Monday's Game 4 matchup against Utah.

D'Astous (undisclosed) won't play against Montreal in Game 4 on Sunday, according to Benjamin Pierce of the Lightning's official site.

D'Astous will miss his third straight game, but he has been skating and will have additional time to recover before Game 5 against the Canadiens on Wednesday. He generated six goals, 29 points, 80 shots on net, 74 blocked shots and 96 hits across 70 appearances in the 2025-26 regular season. Once healthy, D'Astous could replace Declan Carlile in the lineup.
