Impact Zuccarello has yet to be held off the scoresheet in his six playoff games this year. He's earned two goals and seven helpers, as well as 13 shots on net and an even plus-minus rating so far. The 38-year-old winger is likely to continue being a strong playmaker in a top-six role and on the power play.

Ryan Hartman - Strikes on power play in win Hartman scored a power-play goal on three shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

Impact Hartman got a tip on a deflected shot to pot the Wild's third goal of the contest. The 31-year-old forward has contributed two goals and an assist over three contests against the Avalanche in the second round. He's at three goals, four helpers, 29 shots on net, 17 hits, nine blocked shots, 18 PIM and a plus-1 rating over nine playoff outings. Hartman provides solid two-way play, though the penalties could ultimately come back to bite the Wild down the line.

Matt Boldy - Fills empty cage Boldy scored an empty-net goal on five shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

Impact Boldy's last three goals have all gone into empty nets. The 25-year-old is up to seven tallies, four assists, 42 shots on net, 14 hits and a plus-9 rating across nine playoff contests. The Avalanche have mostly been able to contain the winger in the second round, but he's talented enough to find a way to turn that around as the series progresses.

Quinn Hughes - Goal, assist in win Hughes scored a power-play goal, dished an assist, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

Impact Hughes' pair of points came 1:33 apart in the first period, and his goal stood as the game-winner. The 26-year-old blueliner has four multi-point efforts this postseason, including three over his last four contests. He's up to four goals, nine helpers, two power-play points, 16 shots on net, eight blocked shots and a plus-10 rating over nine playoff outings.

Impact This was Faber's third multi-point effort over nine playoff contests. All of his points came at even strength -- he's yet to log a power-play point this postseason. The defenseman has four goals, five assists, 28 shots on net, 17 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-12 rating. Faber gets overshadowed by Quinn Hughes a lot of the time, but the former is a talented blueliner on his own merits.

Kirill Kaprizov - Three points in Saturday's win Kaprizov scored a goal on four shots, dished two power-play assists, blocked two shots and went plus-3 in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

Impact Kaprizov has earned five points over three games in the second round. The Avalanche have done a little better at slowing him down compared to the Stars' efforts in the first round, but Kaprizov is tough to contain. He's up to four goals, 10 assists, 24 shots on net, 15 hits and a plus-11 rating over nine playoff outings in his usual top-line role.

Jesper Wallstedt - Rebounds with win Wallstedt stopped 35 of 36 shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

Impact Wallstedt was benched for Game 2 after giving up eight goals on 42 shots in the series opener. Filip Gustavsson fared no better in his first start of the postseason, so Wallstedt was given another chance and delivered his best performance yet to help the Wild avoid a daunting deficit. He's now 5-3 with a 2.61 GAA and a .913 save percentage over eight playoff outings. With Wallstedt getting back in a groove, expect him to get the nod again Monday in Game 4.
