Stars' Derrick Pouliot: Loaned to AHL

Pouliot was assigned to AHL Texas on Tuesday.

Pouliot has picked up five shots on goal, five blocked shots and four hits in five NHL appearances this season. His return to the minors suggests that the Stars could get back Jani Hakanpaa (upper body) or Nils Lundkvist (concussion) for Tuesday's matchup versus Colorado.
