McMann (lower-body) is "not too far off" but won't play in Game 7.

McMann has yet to play in the first round due to a lower-body injury that he suffered on April 13th vs. the Red Wings. McMann could be ready for game one of round two, if the Maple Leafs are able to eliminate the Bruins on Saturday.

Matthews (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision for Game 7.

Matthews has missed the last two games with an undisclosed ailment but took part in Saturday's morning skate and could return to the lineup for Game 7. According to head coach Sheldon Keefe, Matthews is "progressing," but there's been "no determination" on whether he will play in Game 7.

Saros led the Predators onto the ice for warmups for Game 6.

Saros stopped 19 of 20 shots in the Predators' Game 5 win in Vancouver. Through five games, Saros is 2-3 with a 2.21 GAA and .879 SV%. The Predators have done an outstanding job in front of Saros, allowing just 18.2 shots against per game and the lowest xGA/60 (2.27) in the postseason.

Hill will start Game 6 vs. the Stars.

Hill allowed three goals on 25 shots in his series debut in Game 5. Despite strong play from Logan Thompson early in the series, the Golden Knights will turn to Hill's experience again in Game 6. Hill was 10-7-1 with a 2.54 GAA, .913 SV% and two shutouts on home-ice this season.

DeAngelo (wrist) will be available for Game 1 vs. the Rangers.

DeAngelo suffered a wrist injury in Game 5 vs. the Islanders, but X-rays came back negative, and he's expected to play in Game 1. DeAngelo will likely remain in the lineup until Brett Pesce returns from his lower-body injury, which could happen at some point in Round 2.

Tony DeAngelo
Pesce (lower-body) is questionable to play in Round 2.

Pesce recently removed his walking boot but his status for Round 2 is still uncertain. Head coach Rod Brind'Amour said the team remains hopeful that he'll play at some point vs. the Rangers. Look for Tony DeAngelo to remain his replacement in Game 1.
