Khudobin will start in the crease when the Stars host the Panthers on Thursday, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

Khudobin retakes the cage looking to right the Dallas ship, with the club entering Thursday on a six-game losing streak. Khudobin has performed well in his opportunities between the pipes recently, sporting a 1.78 GAA and a .942 save percentage over his last six starts. Fortunately, he's catching the Panthers when they are averaging just 1.75 goals per game over four March contests.

Khudobin allowed a pair of power-play goals in a 2-0 loss to Nashville on Thursday.

The loss is Khudobin's third defeat in a row and knocks the netminder's season record down to 16-8-4. The two prior losses came in overtime. Dallas will get another crack at Nashville on Saturday, but Ben Bishop figures to start in that game, not Khudobin.

Khudobin has been saddled with a pair of overtime losses in the last two games but will aim to turn his fortunes around Thursday. He fared well in his only other appearance versus the Preds this season, stopping 37 of the 38 shots he faced to pick up the victory.

Khudobin yielded two goals on 27 shots in a 2-1 overtime loss to the Oilers on Tuesday.

Even in defeat, Khudobin played very well, as he only yielded two power-play goals, including one in overtime during a 4-on-3 situation.

Khudobin was a little shaky in his last start Saturday against St. Louis, surrendering three goals on 29 shots en route to a 4-3 road loss. The 33-year-old backstop will try to bounce back at home in a matchup with a Connor McDavid led Edmonton squad that's 19-13-3 on the road this year.

Despite the loss, Khudobin ended the month of February with an impressive 5-0-2 record. He needs three more wins over the remainder of the regular season to equal his personal-best mark of 19 victories. Expect Ben Bishop back in goal Tuesday versus Edmonton, but Khudobin certainly will see more starts down the road given how well he's played of late.

The Russian's two-game winning streak came to an end Saturday. Khudobin now has a 16-7-3 record with a 2.23 GAA and a .930 save percentage in 28 appearances. A rough outing here and there can be forgiven -- Khudobin remains one of the better backups in the league.

Khudobin turned aside 31 shots in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Blackhawks.

Khudobin will defend the road net Sunday against the Senators, Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Khudobin has been excellent since the All-Star break. He's won all three starts while recording a .930 save percentage and 1.98 GAA. It's a favorable matchup against the Senators, too, as they've lost seven of the last eight games while averaging 1.8 goals per contest.

Khudobin stopped 24 shots Tuesday in a 4-1 win over Carolina.

Khudobin made 23 saves in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over St. Louis.

Khudobin gave No. 1 netminder Ben Bishop the night off and delivered his second win in as many starts, helping the Stars rally from a 2-0 deficit. He also logged an assist on Roope Hintz's overtime winner. The 33-year-old Khudobin has been remarkably consistent whenever he's been called upon this season, posting a .917 save percentage or better in all but two of his last 15 starts dating back to mid-November. Khudobin doesn't receive a starter's workload but is certainly a usable asset when he does draw in.

Khudobin was solid in his last start Monday against the Rangers, turing aside 33 of 36 shots en route to a 5-3 victory. The 33-year-old netminder will attempt to secure a second straight road victory in a matchup with a stumbling St. Louis squad that's gone 1-3-0 in its last four games.

Khudobin had dropped back-to-back games before coming away with the win Monday evening, pushing his season record to 12-7-1. The Stars' backup netminder hadn't won since Jan. 8, so the positive result was definitely needed to establish confidence going forward. With back-to-back games Friday and Saturday, Khudobin will likely see more work before the week's end.
