Stars' Matt Dumba: Traveling with team
Matt Dumba (lower body) will join the Dallas Stars for their upcoming two-game road trip, Brian Rea of Bally Sports Southwest reports Monday.Dumba has missed four games due to his lower-body injury but could be back on the ice soon. In his two appearances this year, the 30-year-old blueliner failed to get onto the scoresheet while registering four hits, two blocked shots and four PIM. He played alongside Miro Heiskanen at even strength before his injury, so Dumba would likely return to a top-four role when ready. In order to return to action, Dumba will need to first be activated off injured reserve.
