Top Stars News

  • Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Deposits goal Thursday

    Dadonov scored a goal in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues.

    Dadonov has received extra opportunities in preseason since Jason Robertson (foot) has missed the exhibition slate. The 35-year-old Dadonov will likely be in a bottom-six role when the Stars are at full health, though he has the experience necessary to move up the lineup and even fill in on the power play if injuries pile up. Dadonov was limited to 23 points in 51 regular-season outings in 2023-24, and he added seven points in 19 playoff contests.

  • Stars' Logan Stankoven: Scores twice in overtime loss

    Stankoven scored two goals on four shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues.

    Stankoven tallied twice in the third period, with his second goal coming at the 19:20 mark of the frame to tie the game at 3-3. He's up to four goals and seven points over five preseason outings, proving himself more than ready to begin the year in the NHL. Stankoven racked up 22 points across 43 regular-season and playoff games last year, and since just 24 of those appearances came in the regular season, he'll retain eligibility for the Calder Trophy with 2024-25 serving officially as his rookie year. Look for the 21-year-old to fill a middle-six spot when the Stars open their schedule in Nashville next Thursday.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Loses in overtime

    Oettinger allowed four goals on 29 shots in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues.

    Oettinger allowed a couple of goals in the third period that allowed the Blues to build a 3-1 lead. The Stars rallied back, but Jordan Kyrou's tally at 1:43 of overtime sent Oettinger to his first loss of any type this preseason. The 25-year-old goalie will look to reclaim his status as one of the top netminders in the NHL after posting a 2.72 GAA and a .905 save percentage over 54 games in 2023-24. Even in a down year, he was able to collect 35 wins, and he should have no trouble in that area in 2024-25 as the Stars look to be one of the top teams in the league.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Slated to start Thursday

    Oettinger is expected to start in Thursday's preseason game on the road against the Blues, Brian Rea of Bally Sports Southwest reports.

    Oettinger is expected to play the full game Thursday, while Casey DeSmith will serve as the backup goaltender. Oettinger had a down year by his standards during the 2023-24 campaign, posting a 35-14-4 record, 2.72 GAA and .905 save percentage over 54 regular-season appearances, but he still enters this season as the Stars' clear No. 1 goaltender.

  • Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Back at practice

    Bourque (undisclosed) practiced Tuesday without limitations, Sam Nestler of DLLS Stars reports.

    Bourque had been dealing with a minor injury. Even if he sits out Thursday's preseason finale against St. Louis, the 22-year-old forward should be ready for Opening Night on Oct. 10 versus Nashville. Bourque is slated to occupy a middle-six role and could be on the second power-play unit in the 2024-25 campaign.

  • Stars' Casey DeSmith: Guarding crease Sunday

    DeSmith will guard the road goal Sunday in preseason action versus Minnesota, according to the NHL media site.

    In two periods of work, DeSmith stopped all 14 shots he faced in a 2-1 exhibition victory over the Blues on Sept. 21. He posted a 12-9-8 record with a 2.89 GAA and an .895 save percentage over 29 regular-season appearances with Vancouver in 2023-24. DeSmith will occupy the backup role for the Stars in 2024-25 behind Jake Oettinger.

  • Stars' Jason Robertson: Back at practice

    Robertson (foot) participated in Saturday's practice, Sam Nestler of DLLS Stars reports.

    After undergoing foot surgery in the offseason, Robertson skated with his teammates for the first time at training camp. He is still on track to be ready for Opening Night versus Nashville on Oct. 10. Robertson compiled 29 goals and 80 points across 82 regular-season outings in 2023-24.

  • Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Dealing with minor injury

    Bourque (undisclosed) didn't practice Saturday because of a minor injury, per Sam Nestler of DLLS Stars.

    Bourque was kept off the ice as a precaution but has been working out off the ice. The 22-year-old forward is expected to occupy a middle-six role with Dallas in 2024-25 after starring in the minors last campaign. Bourque earned 26 goals and amassed a league-leading 77 points in 71 regular-season games for AHL Texas in 2023-24.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Set to start Friday

    Oettinger is expected to start in Friday's preseason home game versus Colorado, per Brian Rea of Bally Sports Southwest.

    Oettinger got the nod Wednesday and stopped 17 of 18 shots across two periods in Dallas' 5-2 victory over the Wild. He'll once again serve for two frames in Friday's action as he continues to get ready for his role as the Stars' No. 1 goaltender during the regular season ahead of projected backup Casey DeSmith. For the upcoming exhibition contest against Colorado, Ben Kraws is scheduled to step in for the third.

  • Stars' Jake Oettinger: Slated to start Wednesday

    Oettinger is set to start in Wednesday's preseason home game against Minnesota, according to Mike Heika of the Stars' official site.

    Oettinger posted a 35-14-4 record, 2.72 GAA and .905 save percentage in 54 regular-season games with Dallas in 2023-24. As long as he stays healthy, Oettinger is a strong bet to reach the 30-win mark for the fourth consecutive campaign. Casey DeSmith is penciled in to replace Oettinger for the third period of Wednesday's action.

  • Stars' Magnus Hellberg: Starting in Colorado

    Hellberg will guard the road goal in Monday's preseason matchup against the Avalanche, according to Sam Nestler of DLLS Stars.

    Hellberg will play two periods, and Remi Poirier will enter the contest in the third frame. The 33-year-old Hellberg appeared in 27 AHL regular-season contests between Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and Charlotte in 2023-24. In 26 career NHL appearances, he has an 8-8-1 record with a 3.08 GAA and an .890 save percentage. He will likely begin the 2024-25 campaign in the minors because he ranks behind Jake Oettinger and Casey DeSmith on the Dallas depth chart.

  • Stars' Casey DeSmith: Expected to start Saturday

    DeSmith is set to start for Saturday's preseason home game against St. Louis.

    DeSmith had a 12-9-6 record, 2.89 GAA and .895 save percentage in 29 regular-season contests with Vancouver in 2023-24. He signed a three-year, $3 million contract with the Stars over the summer and is expected to open the 2024-25 campaign as Jake Oettinger's understudy.

  • Stars' Jason Robertson: Will miss camp after foot surgery

    Robertson underwent foot surgery to remove a cyst this offseason and will miss preseason games, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Robertson is expected to be healthy in time for the Stars' first game of the year Oct. 10 versus the Predators. His absence should provide an opportunity for multiple players to audition for a top-six role, including rookies Logan Stankoven and Mavrik Bourque, though both may ultimately end up on the third line to begin 2024-25.

  • Stars' Thomas Harley: Signed before camp opens

    Harley signed a two-year, $8 million contract with the Stars on Tuesday.

    It's a bridge deal for the 23-year-old defenseman, who broke out with 15 goals, 32 assists, nine power-play points, 135 blocked shots and a plus-28 rating over 79 games last year. Harley was a restricted free agent prior to signing. He'll be a popular depth pick in fantasy drafts this fall, though his 10.4 shooting percentage from 2023-24 could be a cause for worries about regression, as that's an unusually high mark for a blueliner.

  • Stars' Esa Lindell: Inks five-year extension

    Lindell signed a five-year, $26.25 million contract extension with Dallas on Tuesday, per Chris Johnston of The Athletic.

    Lindell provided five goals, 26 points, 114 shots on net, 162 blocked shots and 74 hits across 82 regular-season contests in 2023-24. He will have a $5.8 million cap hit for 2024-25 before it drops to $5.25 million during his new agreement. Lindell will likely occupy a top-four role in the upcoming campaign while featuring prominently on the penalty kill.

  • Stars' Magnus Hellberg: Secures two-way deal

    Hellberg inked a one-year, two-way contract with Dallas on Tuesday.

    Hellberg saw action in just three NHL games for the Penguins last season in which he went 1-0-0 with a 2.50 GAA and a .922 save percentage. All told, the backstop has logged 26 NHL games over his career for the Rangers, Red Wings, Predators, Senators and Penguins. He figures to serve as an organizational depth piece behind Jake Oettinger and Casey DeSmith, plying his trade in the minors this year.

  • Stars' Emil Hemming: Will play in OHL

    Hemming signed a contract to play with OHL Barrie in 2024-25, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Hemming was initially expected to remain in Finland for the upcoming season, but the player and the Stars decided his development would be better served in the OHL. The No. 29 pick from this year's draft, Hemming is still a couple of years away from being an NHL threat, as the 18-year-old winger could play the next two years in junior hockey before needing to jump to the pro ranks.

  • Stars' Emil Hemming: Inks entry-level deal

    Hemming signed a three-year, entry-level contract with Dallas on Monday.

    Hemming supplied seven goals and 11 points in 40 regular-season games for TPS of Finland's Liiga in 2023-24. The Stars selected the 18-year-old forward with the No. 29 overall pick in the 2024 NHL Entry Draft. He is projected to play in Finland again during the 2024-25 campaign to continue to hone his skills.

  • Stars' Colin Blackwell: Pens one-year pact

    Blackwell signed a one-year, $775,000 contract with Dallas on Tuesday.

    Blackwell earned eight goals, 12 points, 88 shots on net and 45 hits across 44 regular-season appearances for Chicago in 2023-24. He has been limited to 97 games over the past two campaigns because of injuries but should occupy a fourth-line role with the Stars if he can stay healthy.
