Seguin (illness) is expected to be back in the Stars lineup on Sunday.

Seguin missed Friday's game in Winnipeg but practiced on Saturday and "should be fine" for Sunday's game according to head coach Rick Bowness. Expect confirmation either a few hours prior to puck-drop or when the Stars hit the ice for warmups at 3:30 PM ET.

Smith (head) was released from the hospital to travel with the team to Philadelphia.

Smith was taken to the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center for evaluation after taking a shot off his helmet on Sunday. Smith was released and travelled with the team to Philadelphia but will likely be replaced by Ian Cole in the lineup on Monday.

The Maple Leafs have acquired Ilya Lyubushkin and Ryan Dzingel from the Coyotes for Nick Ritchie and a conditional second-round pick.

Lyubushkin is a big (6'2", 201 lbs) rugged defenseman, who is in his fourth year in the NHL. Lyubushkin has just one goal and 18 assists (19 points) in 180 career NHL games but has 498 hits and 246 blocked shots. Lyubushkin was a key penalty killer for the Coyotes and should serve a similar role as a third-pairing defenseman for the Maple Leafs.
