Ilya Lyubushkin will be a healthy scratch on Tuesday against the Minnesota Wild, allowing Petrovic to draw into the lineup for his season debut. The 33-year-old Petrovic has played only five regular-season NHL games since 2019-20 but has been a regular with the Stars over the last two postseasons, playing 24 combined games, potentially earning himself a larger role with the team in 2025-26.
