Matthews (illness) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday for Game 5 vs. Boston.

Matthews did not play in the third period of Saturday's 3-1 game-four loss to the Boston Bruins and did not participate in practice on Monday. He has three points (1G / 2A) in four postseason games this year and his status for game five on Tuesday is up in the air despite participating in morning skate.

Faksa (undisclosed) will not play in Game 4 in Vegas on Monday.

Faksa appears to have suffered an undisclosed injury in Game 2 of the series and has now missed the last two games as a result. Largely relied on for his defensive prowess, Faksa still managed to tally seven goals and 12 assists across 74 games in the 2023-24 regular season.

The Jets find themselves in a 3-1 series deficit, now without Dillon, who had three assists, 12 hits, and six blocks while averaging 21:04 time-on-ice through the first three games of the series.
