Jake Oettinger Makes His Season Debut Tuesday Night

Dallas Stars goaltender Jake Oettinger will be the man between the pipes in Tuesday's meeting against Detroit, logging his season debut.

Braden Holtby Gets The Nod On Wednesday

Jamie Benn Scoring Goals Across Canada For Dallas

Dallas Stars left-winger Jamie Benn is still struggling this season but has scored goals in consecutive games.

Tyler Seguin Finding Form As Vancouver Looms

Denis Gurianov Will Return To The Lineup Thursday Night

Dallas Stars winger Denis Gurianov will be back in the lineup for Thursday's clash with the Flames. He missed his first game of the season on Tuesday against Winnipeg as a healthy scratch. The 24-year-old has two solid NHL seasons under his belt but next to nothing has gone his way in 2021-22, as Gurianov […]

Braden Holtby Gives Up Four Goals In Defeat

Dallas Stars goaltender Braden Holtby had little chance on Friday night as the Stars held the Ottawa Senators to just 24 shots. However, they allowed 10 high-danger scoring chances at even strength.
