Carcone scored a goal on four shots and added three hits in Monday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Golden Knights in Game 4.

Carcone's tally was his first point of the postseason, and it made up for him whiffing on a premium chance earlier in the contest. The Mammoth didn't get enough offense in the end, losing on Shea Theodore's tally at 19:08 of overtime. Carcone has contributed a goal, seven shots on net, 15 hits and two PIM over his first four career playoff outings.

Bump scored a goal on four shots and added two hits in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Penguins in Game 5.

Bump made his postseason debut Monday, replacing Matvei Michkov in a third-line role. Considering the goal, it's tough to see Bump coming back out of the lineup for Game 6, though he's no lock to play in the future as one of a handful of rookie forwards on the Flyers' roster. Bump made a decent impression in the regular season with nine points, 23 shots on net and 16 hits over 17 contests.

Sanheim scored a goal and blocked four shots in Monday's 3-2 loss to the Penguins in Game 5.

Sanheim has chipped in three points, five shots on net, 10 blocked shots, six PIM, three hits and a plus-5 rating over five contests to open the postseason. The 30-year-old continues to see significant minutes in the top four, though he's only gotten a trace of power-play time in most games. His defensive work will keep him in a large role, and after a 37-point effort in 81 regular-season outings, he has shown an ability to chip in on offense as well.

Shea logged an assist and two blocked shots in Monday's 3-2 win over the Flyers in Game 5.

The helper was Shea's first point in five playoff games, and he's added three shots on net, three hits and seven blocked shots. This is his first year in the postseason as an NHL player. He had a breakout year with six goals, 35 points, 92 blocked shots, 72 shots on net and a plus-30 rating over 80 regular-season appearances.

Soderblom scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Monday's 3-2 win over the Flyers in Game 5.

Soderblom is getting his first taste of playoff action in the NHL, and he's doing so in a bottom-six role. The goal was his first point in four appearances in this first-round series. The 24-year-old has added nine shots on net, 10 hits and an even plus-minus rating. Soderblom split the regular season between Pittsburgh and Detroit, totaling seven goals, 13 points, 69 shots on net and 99 hits across 59 games.

Dewar scored a goal on two shots and added three hits in Monday's 3-2 win over the Flyers in Game 5.

Dewar has scored both of his goals this series over the last two games. The 26-year-old has added 17 hits, providing some physicality from a fourth-line role. Dewar should continue to play regularly as the Penguins look to dig out from what was a 3-0 deficit in the series that they've now cut down to 3-2.

Letang scored a goal and added three hits in Monday's 3-2 win over the Flyers in Game 5.

Letang's shot missed the net, but the carom off the back boards landed in the crease, and Dan Vladar inadvertently shuffled the puck into his net. This was Letang's second goal in as many games, and both have sealed victories as the Penguins work their way back from what was a 3-0 series deficit. Letang has added nine shots on net, seven hits, four blocked shots, 18 PIM and a minus-2 rating over five playoff contests.

Ingram is drawing the start for Tuesday's Game 5 at home versus the Ducks, according to Oilers play-by-play announcer Jack Michaels.

The Oilers are turning back to Ingram on the cusp of elimination after Tristan Jarry played in Sunday's Game 4 loss. Ingram won the first game of this series, but he has been blitzed for 14 goals on 93 shots through three outings against the Ducks in the 2026 postseason, posting an .849 save percentage and a 4.70 GAA in the process. The Oilers have a couple of moving parts for Game 5, as Connor McDavid (undisclosed) and Jason Dickinson (lower body) are game-time decisions.

Dickinson (lower body) will be a game-time decision against Anaheim on Tuesday in Game 5, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

Dickinson didn't participate in Tuesday's morning skate and has been a game-time decision for most of the opening round of the playoffs because of a lingering injury. He has provided two goals and one assist in two appearances against the Ducks this postseason.

McDavid was deemed a game-time decision ahead of Tuesday's Game 5 matchup with the Ducks due to an ankle injury, Mark Spector of Sportsnet reports.

McDavid didn't take part in Tuesday's morning skate and has now been classified as day-to-day by head coach Kris Kloblauch. While it seems unlikely the world-class center would miss a playoff game unless absolutely necessary, fantasy managers will now need to monitor his status in the lead-up to Game 5. If McDavid were to be unavailable, Leon Draisaitl figures to anchor the top line for the Oilers.
