2 months agoAccording to Lia Assimakopoulos of the Dallas News, Dallas Stars left wing Mason Marchment (face) is hoping to return before the 4 Nations Face-Off. The 29-year-old has been sidelined since the end of December due to a facial injury. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status, as the Stars have five games before the international break. While he has been sidelined, Evgenii Dadonov was promoted to the top-six. While Marchment did not tally a point over his previous seven games before the injury, he was enjoying a nice stretch prior to this. Over his previous 14 contests before his seven-game scoreless streak, Marchment tallied an impressive 19 points (10 goals, nine points) with a +8 rating. Fantasy managers should expect Marchment to return to a top-six role when he is cleared for action.
