Dallas Stars News

Lindell, 21, failed to record a point in four games with Dallas and since the Stars are off until after the All-Star break, they’ve sent Lindell back to Texas. He has 25 points (7G / 18A) in 42 games with the AHL Stars.

Lindell, 21, was the 74th overall pick in the 2012 NHL Draft. The 6-foot-3, 210 lbs. defenseman is expected to make his NHL debut after being recalled from Texas (AHL) when Jordie Benn was moved to IR. Lindell has 25 points (7G / 18A) In 42 games in his first full season in Texas.

Perron will be a unrestricted free agent at the end of the season. Despite playing the majority of the season with Sidney Crosby, Perron had just 16 points (4G / 12A) in 43 games. He could slide into Hagelin’s spot in the Ducks top six, but he remains a low-end wing option in standard 12-team leagues.

Faksa appeared in four games during his most recent call-up—he had one assist, which give him one goal and two assists in 18 games on the year. He heads back to Texas where he has 13 points (9G / 4A) in 19 games this season.

Duchene missed the morning skate because of an illness, but is still expected to be in the lineup tonight vs. the Islanders. Duchene has been red-hot in the month of November, having recorded 11 goals and nine assists (20 points) in 13 games.

Faksa, 21, had one goal and one assist in 14 games with the Stars. He returns to Texas, where he has two goals in one game this season. His return to the AHL suggests that Patrick Eaves will return to the lineup on Tuesday.

Faksa, 21, was the 13th overall pick in the 2012 Draft and it looks like he will make his NHL debut on Saturday vs. the Panthers. Patrick Eaves and Curtis McKenzie went down with injuries in back-to-back games, opening the door for the 21-year-old to make his debut. He had just 10 points (4G / 6A) in 32 games with Texas last season, but scored twice in the 2015-16 season opener.

Benn had a crazy four-point season finale and five goals and five assists in his last three games to win the Art Ross Trophy this season. He played all 82 games, but will go under the knife after the Stars were eliminated from the playoffs. Benn is expected to be ready for training camp.

Myers will take a seat in the final game of the regular season, which is well deserved since Myers has been playing nearly 26-plus minutes per night in April. He has three goals and 12 assists (15 points) in 24 games since being traded to Winnipeg.

Seguin showed up late for a practice on Friday and will be a healthy scratch on Saturday as a result. Seguin will finish the season with 37 goals and 40 assists (77 points) in 71 games.

Perron missed Saturday’s game with an illness and it doesn’t look like he will go tonight either. Monitor his status during pre-game warmups and if he does end up playing, expect him to skate with Sidney Crosby and Patric Hornqvist.

There was no word prior to warmups that Perron was dealing with an illness, but he will sit this afternoon, so Patric Hornqvist will replace him on the first line. Perron has no points and is a minus-5 in his last five games. Monitor Perron’s status prior to Sunday’s contest.

Benn was listed as questionable on Tuesday, but he took part in the morning skate and said that he will play tonight vs. the Flames. Benn has been red-hot as of late, scoring three goals with five assists (8 points) in his last six games.

Benn was banged up in the Stars win over the Sabres last night and is a question mark for Wednesday. Benn had two goals and one assist last night vs. Buffalo and has three goals and five assists (8 points) in his last six games. Monitor his status during the morning skate.

Myers missed Saturday’s game with upper-body injury, but he will be back in the lineup tonight vs. San Jose. Myers has been great, posting nine point in his first 12 games with the Jets. Myers will be on the top-pair with Tobias Enstrom.
