Poirier was called up from AHL Texas on Saturday.
The Stars designated backup goaltender Casey DeSmith (personal) as a non-roster player in a corresponding move. Poirier has a record of 8-10-4 with a 2.77 GAA and a .903 save percentage across 22 AHL appearances this season. He could see action Tuesday in Carolina or Wednesday in Washington, if DeSmith has not returned to the roster.
