Lundkvist will be the odd-man out Tuesday in order to make room for Chris Tanev's Stars debut. Lundkvist has two goals and 13 assists in 45 games this season.

The Stars acquired Tanev on Wednesday by giving up a 2024 second-round pick, a 2026 fourth-round pick, Artem Grushnikov and a conditional 2026 third-round pick to acquire Tanev. Tanev is a rugged defenseman, who has racked up 171 blocked shots this season to go along with one goal and 13 assists (14 points) in 56 games. He should bring plenty of stability to the Stars' second pairing. He has missed two games since joining the Stars due to immigration issues.

White will miss Tuesday's game in Nashville due to the upper-body injury and has been placed on injured reserve as a result. White is yet to register a point in 16 games this season.
