  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Posts 26-save shutout

    Oettinger stopped all 26 shots he faced in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.

    Oettinger delivered another flawless performance between the pipes, recording a second consecutive shutout while helping Dallas secure a comfortable road victory. Oettinger was beaten four times in the season opener against the Blues, but he's bounced back and has stopped each of the last 39 shots he's faced. Casey DeSmith is a strong backup alternative who can start on any given day, but Oettinger is locked in as the Stars' No. 1 goaltender until further notice.

  • Stars' Jason Robertson: Scores vs. Buffalo

    Robertson scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.

    Robertson was one of four Dallas players to find the back of the net, joining Mikko Rantanen, Roope Hintz and Sam Steel in the scoring column. His four shots ranked second on the team behind Hintz's six, highlighting his involvement in an efficient offensive showing for Dallas, and he's trending in the right direction. After going pointless in the first two games of the campaign, Robertson has posted three points in his last two games (two goals, one assist). He's also taken four shots in each of his last two appearances after tallying three combined in his first two showings.

  • Stars' Wyatt Johnston: Records three assists

    Johnston recorded three assists, including one on the power play, and one shot on goal in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.

    Johnston was one of Dallas' primary playmakers, matching Rantanen with three assists while helping the Stars generate offense throughout the contest. The 23-year-old center also won seven of 11 faceoffs, providing a strong all-around contribution in the convincing victory, and he's up to four assists this season. He's lacking in the goals column, though, as he hasn't scored in four appearances despite taking 10 shots on goal.

  • Stars' Mikko Rantanen: Records four points in shutout win

    Rantanen scored a goal on two shots and added three assists, including one on the power play, in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.

    Rantanen factored into all four Dallas goals, delivering a dominant offensive performance despite playing a season-low 15:27. The Finnish winger also finished with a plus-3 rating and contributed three points at even strength, helping Dallas control the game without relying heavily on its power play. His chemistry with Wyatt Johnston was particularly productive, as the pair combined for seven points. Rantanen went pointless in the season-opening loss to the Blues, but he's turned things around with six points (two goals, four helpers) in his last three outings.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Tending twine Thursday

    Oettinger will defend the cage for Thursday's road clash with the Sabres, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.

    Oettinger is coming off a shutout victory over the Sharks on Monday, though he only faced 13 shots in that contest. While the 27-year-old backstop figures to face more rubber from Buffalo, he remains an elite netminder capable of putting together a fifth straight 35-win season.

  • Stars' Joel Kiviranta: Set to miss next two games

    Kiviranta (lower body) will miss Dallas' upcoming two-game road trip, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports Wednesday.

    Dallas will play in Buffalo on Thursday and Pittsburgh on Saturday without Kiviranta. However, the hope is that he's ready to go after the road trip, per Robert Tiffin of NHL.com, so Kiviranta might still be an option for Tuesday's home game against Colorado. The 30-year-old has a goal in two appearances with the Stars in 2025-26. Colin Blackwell will likely draw back into the lineup due to Kiviranta's absence.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Dishes pair of assists

    Hintz notched two assists and a plus-3 rating in Monday's 5-0 win over the Sharks.

    Hintz got on the scoresheet for the first time in three games this season with the pair of helpers. He set up Miro Heiskanen's opening tally late in the first period and also assisted Jamie Benn's goal to stretch the Dallas lead to 3-0. Hintz has functioned in a top-six role to start the year, adding three shots on net, seven hits and a plus-1 rating. The Stars have a fair amount of balance between the first and second lines -- neither trio is likely to see heavy ice time in most situations.

  • Stars' Joel Kiviranta: Puts away goal

    Kiviranta scored a goal and added two hits in Monday's 5-0 win over the Sharks.

    Kiviranta's tally stretched the Stars' lead to 2-0 in the second period. The 30-year-old winger has opened the season in a fourth-line role, though he's battling with Colin Blackwell for the last spot in the lineup. Over two appearances, Kiviranta has a goal, three shots on net, four hits and a plus-1 rating. He probably won't produce a lot of offense, but he could earn a decent share of hits.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Earns shutout Monday

    Oettinger stopped all 13 shots he faced in Monday's 5-0 win over the Sharks.

    Oettinger wasn't heavily tested, but he turned aside everything San Jose sent his way to record his first shutout of the season -- and the 17th of his NHL career. Dallas controlled the contest after Miro Heiskanen opened the scoring late in the first period and eventually provided Oettinger with five goals of support. The victory was also the Stars' first of the season following a disappointing start. As for Oettinger, he's given up just two goals on 35 shots faced in the early stages of the 2026-27 campaign. This was his second start of the season, and while Casey DeSmith is a competent goalkeeper, Oettinger should be the No. 1 option as long as he's healthy.

  • Stars' Mikko Rantanen: Takes four shots, scores goal

    Rantanen scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 5-0 win over the Sharks. He also added two blocked shots.

    Rantanen capped the scoring at 15:22 of the third period, beating Yaroslav Askarov with a wrist shot from the left circle to record his first goal of the campaign. The star winger had been held without a goal through Dallas' first two contests, making Monday's tally a welcome breakthrough as the Stars secured their first victory. Rantanen remains a focal point of the Dallas offense and should continue seeing heavy usage in all situations, meaning his slow start will likely become a distant memory in a few more games given his elite usage rate.

  • Stars' Miro Heiskanen: Breaks deadlock vs. San Jose

    Heiskanen scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 5-0 win over the Sharks.

    Heiskanen opened the scoring with 1:09 remaining in the first period, collecting a rebound behind the net and banking a backhand off Dmitry Orlov and Yaroslav Askarov. The tally ultimately stood as the game-winner after Jake Oettinger blanked San Jose at the other end. Heiskanen continues to occupy a major role on Dallas' blue line and should remain heavily involved offensively while seeing substantial time with the Stars' top power-play unit. He has scored two goals in his first three outings of the season while averaging 2.67 shots on goal per game.

  • Stars' Jason Robertson: First points of season Monday

    Robertson scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Monday's 5-0 win over the Sharks.

    Robertson set up Jamie Benn's second-period tally with a nifty touch pass before scoring one of his own at 16:30, beating Yaroslav Askarov from the slot to stretch Dallas' lead to 4-0. It was Robertson's first goal of the campaign after he was held off the scoresheet in each of the Stars' first two games. He remains entrenched in a prominent offensive role alongside Roope Hintz and Benn, and while repeating the 45-goal output from 2025-26 might be difficult on paper, Robertson should be a dominant offensive weapon for one of the top teams in the West, so the upside is there as long as he stays healthy.

  • Stars' Jamie Benn: Notches goal, assist in win Monday

    Benn scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Monday's 5-0 win over the Sharks.

    Benn helped set up Miro Heiskanen's goal late in the first period before getting on the board himself at 6:19 of the second, jamming home a feed from Jason Robertson to extend Dallas' advantage to 3-0. It was the first multi-point performance of the season for Benn, who skated on the top line alongside Robertson and Roope Hintz as the Stars picked up their first victory of the campaign. He should continue to have plenty of opportunities to score moving forward as long as he stays healthy and in a top-six role, as the Stars have one of the deepest forward lines in the Western Conference.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Tending twine against San Jose

    Oettinger will start Monday's home game against the Sharks, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

    Oettinger drew the Opening Night start at home against the Blues on Friday, and he allowed two goals on 22 shots during the 4-0 loss, with two goals being empty-netters. He got the night off in the second half of a back-to-back set Saturday in Nashville but will return to the crease a few days later in search of his first win of the 2026-27 campaign.

  • Stars' Jaxon Fuder: Returns to action in minors

    Fuder (undisclosed) recorded a shot and two PIM during AHL Texas' 4-3 loss to Iowa on Saturday.

    Fuder was hampered during training camp due to an injury he sustained during the prospect tournament, but it was encouraging to see him return to action for Texas. The 20-year-old hasn't yet made his NHL debut and should spend most, or all, of the 2026-27 campaign in the minors.

  • Stars' Tristan Bertucci: Returns to action in AHL

    Bertucci (undisclosed) was assigned to AHL Texas on Saturday.

    After beginning the 2026-27 NHL campaign on the injured non-roster list, Bertucci returned to the lineup for Dallas' top minor-league affiliate over the weekend. He contributed an assist in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to AHL Iowa.
