Top Stars News

  • Stars' Jason Robertson: Week-to-week

    Robertson (knee) is week-to-week after he was injured Wednesday versus Nashville, according to Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News.

    This puts a serious crimp in the Stars' playoff hopes as they take on Colorado in the opening round. Robertson led Dallas with 35 goals and was second in team scoring with 80 points, two in arrears of Matt Duchene. He likely won't be available at any point during the first round and it may be longer than that for the winger. Look for Oskar Back or Colin Blackwell to enter the Dallas lineup in place of Robertson.

  • Stars' Ben Kraws: Recalled on emergency basis

    Kraws was called up on an emergency basis by Dallas on Friday.

    There is no word if either Jake Oettinger or Casey DeSmith are injured at this time, or if the Stars are going to carry three goaltenders during the playoffs. Kraws was signed to a one-year, entry-level contract by Dallas last season after completing his senior year at St. Lawrence University. Kraws was 23-12-5 with a 2.88 GAA and a .910 save percentage at ECHL Idaho this season. He also managed three games at the AHL level with Texas, going 2-1-0.

  • Stars' Alex Petrovic: Recalled by NHL club

    Petrovic was recalled from AHL Texas on Friday.

    Petrovic was sent to the minors Wednesday, but he'll rejoin the NHL club ahead of postseason play. The 33-year-old appeared in five games for Dallas this year, recording no points, 10 hits, six blocked shots and four PIM while averaging 14:06 of ice time. He's unlikely to play a significant role in the postseason.

  • Stars' Lian Bichsel: Back in NHL

    Bichsel was recalled from AHL Texas on Friday.

    Bichsel was sent down Wednesday as the Stars needed his cap room to activate Tyler Seguin (hip) from long-term injured reserve. The playoffs have no bearing on the salary cap, enabling the Stars to recall the 20-year-old defenseman. Bichsel had four goals and five assists across 38 regular-season NHL games before his demotion.

  • Stars' Tyler Seguin: Earns assist in return

    Seguin recorded an assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Predators.

    Seguin missed 58 games due to a hip surgery. He saw 14:48 of ice time in his return, compared to an average of 16:13 prior to the injury. The 33-year-old will be called on for top-six usage in the playoffs, though he may have his minutes managed if he's playing at less than 100 percent. Still, his presence in the lineup should give the Stars a boost. He earned 21 points, 46 shots on net and a plus-15 rating over 20 regular-season outings.

  • Stars' Matt Duchene: Garners assist in loss

    Duchene logged an assist in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Predators.

    Duchene snapped a three-game point drought with the helper on Mason Marchment's first-period tally. That little skid at the end of the season didn't stop Duchene from finishing at a point-per-game pace for the second time in his career. Both instances have been within the last four seasons. Duchene concludes the regular season with 30 goals, 52 assists, 152 shots on net and a plus-13 rating over all 82 contests. He'll be a key top-six forward in the playoffs, where the Stars are set to face his original NHL team, the Avalanche, in the first round.

  • Stars' Mason Marchment: Scores early in loss

    Marchment scored a goal in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Predators.

    Marchment tallied just 16 seconds into the game, but that was the only shot that evaded Juuse Saros in this contest. This was Marchment's first game back after missing two due to an illness. The winger racked up eight goals and 10 assists over his last 21 regular-season outings, giving him some momentum to work with entering the postseason. He matched his career high of 22 goals and added 25 assists, 134 shots on net, 79 hits, 53 PIM and a plus-15 rating over 62 appearances this season. Marchment should work with his regular linemates Matt Duchene and Tyler Seguin in a top-six role to begin the playoffs.

  • Stars' Casey DeSmith: Makes relief appearance Wednesday

    DeSmith stopped all 12 shots he faced in relief of Jake Oettinger in Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Predators.

    Once the game turned into a blowout in the second period, head coach Pete DeBoer turned to DeSmith to play the final frame of the regular season. Barring an injury to Oettinger, this was likely DeSmith's last playing time for a while. DeSmith allowed 15 goals on 117 shots over his last four appearances as part of a larger seven-game losing streak for the Stars. Overall, DeSmith ends the season at a 14-8-2 record with a 2.59 GAA and a .915 save percentage across 27 appearances in his first year with the Stars.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Can't shake skid in finale

    Oettinger stopped 17 of 22 shots before he was pulled from Wednesday's 5-1 loss to the Predators.

    Oettinger probably shouldn't have been starting in the regular-season finale, but he got the nod anyway. He wasn't able to shake his recent skid, which is up to four straight losses (0-3-1), a span in which he's allowed 17 goals on 134 shots. Oettinger ends the regular season at 36-18-4, one win shy of his career high from 2022-23, and he also posted a 2.59 GAA and a .909 save percentage in 58 starts. He'll be the man between the pipes for the Stars' playoff run, which begins with Game 1 versus the Avalanche on Saturday.

  • Stars' Jason Robertson: Seen in knee brace after game

    Robertson left Bridgestone Arena with a brace on his right knee Wednesday, Emma Lingan of The Hockey News reports.

    Robertson was removed from Wednesday's regular-season finale due to the injury, and this update suggests this was more than a precautionary move. Consider the star winger questionable to play in the Stars' playoff opener versus the Avalanche on Saturday. If Robertson can't suit up, Oskar Back or Colin Blackwell will draw into the lineup.

  • Stars' Jason Robertson: Sustains lower-body injury

    Robertson will not finish Wednesday's game versus the Predators after sustaining a lower-body injury in the second period.

    Robertson will end the regular season at 35 goals and 80 points over 82 appearances. This was the third season in a row in which he played every game. Given the Stars didn't need anything from their regular-season finale, this may simply be a cautious approach with one of the team's best players.

  • Stars' Esa Lindell: In lineup Wednesday

    Lindell (rest) will return to the lineup Wednesday versus the Predators, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Lindell rested two games to prepare for the playoffs. He'll be back in a top-four role. The 30-year-old defenseman will play a key shutdown role in the first round versus the Avalanche, but don't be surprised if his minutes are managed in Wednesday's regular-season finale.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Stars' Mason Marchment: Playing Wednesday

    Marchment (illness) will return to the lineup Wednesday versus the Predators, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Marchment missed the previous two games while under the weather. The 29-year-old will reunite with Matt Duchene and Tyler Seguin as the trio gets a look prior to the playoffs. Marchment has earned 46 points over 61 outings this season.

  • Stars' Thomas Harley: Returning Wednesday

    Harley (rest) is back in the lineup Wednesday versus the Predators, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Harley was out for two games to rest before the playoffs. The return of Tyler Seguin made Lian Bichsel and Alex Petrovic cap casualties for the season finale, but Harley is able to suit up and should see top-four minutes with power-play time.

  • Stars' Alex Petrovic: Heads back to minors

    Petrovic was reassigned to AHL Texas on Wednesday, per Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News.

    Petrovic has no points over five appearances with Dallas in 2024-25. He also has five goals, 25 points and 66 PIM in 58 outings with Texas this season.

    ... See More ... See Less
  • Stars' Lian Bichsel: Dropped to minors

    Bichsel was reassigned to AHL Texas on Wednesday, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Bichsel's demotion will clear the necessary cap space for Tyler Seguin (hip) to be activated off long-term injured reserve. Additionally, the demotion of Bichsel and Alex Petrovic means Esa Lindell (rest) and Thomas Harley (rest) figure to be ready to play against Nashville on Wednesday.

  • Stars' Tyler Seguin: Taken off IR

    Seguin (hip) was activated off long-term injured reserve ahead of Wednesday's matchup with Nashville, per the NHL media site.

    Seguin was technically classified as a game-time decision by head coach Pete DeBoer, but this move clears the way for the veteran forward to suit up for the first time since Dec. 1 versus Winnipeg. Even with his return to the lineup, Seguin may have to settle for a bottom-six role given his lengthy injury absence.

  • Stars' Tyler Seguin: Game-time decision against Preds

    Seguin (hip) will be a game-time call for Wednesday's matchup with Nashville, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    In order to suit up Wednesday, Seguin will need to be activated off long-term injured reserve, so that figures to be the final determination on whether he suits up versus the Predators. The 33-year-old forward has been out of action since Dec. 1 against the Jets due to his hip problem, a stretch of 58 games on the shelf. Once given the all-clear, Seguin figures to fill a middle-six role that will likely see Oskar Back dropped from the lineup.
