Vancouver Canucks right wing Brock Boeser is not expected to play in Game 7 of their second-round series against the Edmonton Oilers on Monday because of a blood-clotting issue, a source told ESPN, confirming a report.

There's no timeline for his return to action. The Canucks had no comment on Boeser's status.

The decision to pull goaltender Stuart Skinner after the second period of a 4-3 loss Sunday to the Vancouver Canucks has left the Edmonton Oilers facing questions about their goaltending for a second straight postseason.

Skinner, who has started every game during these playoffs, was replaced by Calvin Pickard to begin the third period. Skinner was pulled after allowing four goals on 15 shots in a Game 3 that saw the Canucks take a 2-1 series lead in the Western Conference semifinals.

"Yes, we need more saves," Oilers coach Kris Knoblauch said. "Tonight, obviously, I felt like that with Picks going in the third period but defense along with goaltending is very important to winning hockey games. Especially in the long term. Yeah, it's got to be better."

Toronto Maple Leafs star forward Auston Matthews was named a finalist for the Lady Byng Trophy on Saturday.

It marks the third time that Matthews has been a finalist for the award, which is presented annually to the player voted to best combine sportsmanship, gentlemanly conduct and ability as voted on by the Professional Hockey Writers Association.

Vancouver Canucks forward Elias Pettersson and Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Jaccob Slavin also were named finalists.

Rick Bowness, Andrew Brunette and Rick Tocchet are finalists for this year's Jack Adams Award, the NHL announced on Friday.

The distinction is given annually to the coach who is "adjudged to have contributed the most to his team's success."

Quinn Hughes, Roman Josi and Cale Makar are finalists for this year's Norris Trophy, the NHL announced Wednesday.

The Norris is awarded annually to the "defense player who demonstrates throughout the season the greatest all-round ability in the position."

The NHL named Sergei Bobrovsky, Thatcher Demko and Connor Hellebuyck finalists for the Vezina Trophy.

The Vezina Trophy, which goes to the goaltender adjudged to be the best at his position, was voted on by the NHL's general managers with Bobrovsky, Demko and Hellebuyck finishing in the top three in votes for this season.

Superstar captain Connor McDavid will sit out his third straight game Saturday when his Edmonton Oilers host the Vancouver Canucks.

McDavid sustained a lower-body injury during the final five minutes of the Oilers 4-2 win over the Calgary Flames on April 6. He missed the 5-1 victory versus the Vegas Golden Knights on Wednesday and a 3-2 overtime loss to the Arizona Coyotes on Friday.

After clinching home ice for at least their first-round series in the playoffs, the Edmonton Oilers turn their sights on trying to finish in first place in the Pacific Division when they host the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday night.

Edmonton (48-24-6, 102 points) trails Vancouver (48-22-9, 105 points) by three points entering the showdown but still has one game in hand on the Canucks. And the Oilers also might have reigning Hart Trophy recipient Connor McDavid back in the lineup.

Star center Elias Pettersson and the Vancouver Canucks have agreed to an eight-year contract extension worth $92.8 million, ending speculation about his future with the franchise.

Pettersson, 25, has 75 points in 62 games this season, including 29 goals. Over six NHL seasons, the center has 165 goals and 233 assists in 387 games. The Canucks drafted him fifth overall in 2017.

The Vancouver Canucks announced Tuesday that veteran winger Phil Kessel will work out this week in Abbotsford, British Columbia, where the team's AHL affiliate team is located.

Kessel has not played since last season, when he won his third Stanley Cup, as a member of the Vegas Golden Knights. The 36-year-old finished with 14 goals and 36 points in 82 regular-season games while scoring two points, both assists, in four playoff games.
