• Stars' Jamie Benn: Dominant at faceoff dot

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Benn logged an assist, fired six shots on goal, levied three hits and won all 16 of his faceoffs in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks. That level of dominance in the faceoff circle is extremely rare, and it's all the more impressive since it was just the third time in 12 games Benn has taken 10 or more draws. He often functions as a winger on the Stars' third line as well as playing on the power play. The forward has two goals and two assists over his last five games as he tries to bounce back from a quiet start to the campaign. Overall, he has six points, 22 shots on net, 23 hits and a minus-2 rating.

• Stars' Jamie Benn: Extends point streak in loss

  8D ago • By RotoWire

  Benn deposited a goal on four shots in Friday's 6-4 loss to Florida. Benn added four blocks, one hit, one takeaway and a minus-1 rating in 14:44 of ice time. The left-shot winger extended his point streak to three games Friday, and he's produced two goals and an assist during that span. Benn has garnered three goals, two assists and a minus-2 rating over 10 contests while skating on the top line and No. 1 power-play unit. If the 35-year-old stays healthy for the entirety of the 2024-2025 campaign, it would be the fourth consecutive season in which Benn doesn't miss a regular-season game -- that's an incredible portrayal of durability for a player in year-16 of his NHL career.

• Stars' Jamie Benn: Nets goal Saturday

  14D ago • By RotoWire

  Benn scored a goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks. Benn recorded a season-high mark in shots, and that resulted in the veteran winger notching his second strike of the campaign. Even though Benn will no longer be the productive winger he was during his prime years, he should continue to be a threatening presence as a middle-six forward who also has a prominent role in the power-play unit. However, he's racked up only four points in nine contests, though he's also cracked the scoresheet in his past two outings.

• Stars' Jamie Benn: Contributes power-play helper

  16D ago • By RotoWire

  Benn notched a power-play assist and four PIM in Thursday's 5-2 win over the Bruins. Benn snapped a four-game point drought with an assist on Jason Robertson's second-period go-ahead tally. While that's a positive, Benn has still been held without a shot in four straight games and five of the Stars' eight contests this season. The captain has three points, five shots on net, 14 hits, eight PIM and a minus-2 rating, and his slow start will make it tough for him to reach the 60-point mark for a third straight season. Benn never went more than three games without a shot during 2023-24.

He's contributed three shots on net, five hits and one blocked shot through three contests this season. If Benn's usage remains steady, he could challenge for a third straight 60-point campaign.
