Top Oskar Back News

  • Stars' Oskar Back: Picks up assist

    Back notched an assist in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.

    Back has four helpers over his last six contests. It's one of his best runs so far, but the 24-year-old forward remains in a fourth-line role and isn't expected to be a big contributor on offense. He's at eight points, 16 shots on goal, 12 hits and a plus-4 rating through 26 appearances.

  • Stars' Oskar Back: Provides pair of assists

    Back notched two assists and went plus-2 in Sunday's 6-2 win over the Flames.

    Back has contributed three helpers over his last two games. He assisted on goals by Jason Robertson and Thomas Harley in this contest. This isn't likely to be a sustained improvement on offense for Back, who is stuck in a fourth-line role. He has seven points, 15 shots on net, 12 hits and a plus-5 rating over 22 appearances, though he hasn't sat out since Nov. 11 and likely won't do so since Tyler Seguin's (hip) long-term absence means the Stars are unlikely to carry any spare forwards until Seguin moves from regular to long-term injured reserve officially.

  • Stars' Oskar Back: Snags helper in loss

    Back notched an assist in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights.

    Back snapped a seven-game point drought when he set up Mavrik Bourque's second-period tally. The 24-year-old Back has been in the lineup most of the season, but he's a fixture on the fourth line when he plays. He's contributed just one goal, four assists, 14 shots on net, 11 hits, four blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over 21 appearances.

  • Stars' Oskar Back: Posts assist in win

    Back logged an assist in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.

    Back has three points over his last four games. The 24-year-old has received a steady run of playing time in a stretch where Colin Blackwell and Mavrik Bourque have been healthy scratches. Back is likely to peak at the fourth line. He has four points, 10 shots on net, nine hits and a plus-1 rating through 13 appearances this season.

  • Stars' Oskar Back: First career multi-point game

    Back recorded a goal and an assist in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Bruins.

    Back didn't play in either of the Stars' previous two contests and had suited up in just three of the team's last eight games. However, he made his presence felt in this game with arguably the best outing of his entire NHL career. The 24-year-old center doesn't have a secure spot in the lineup and doesn't produce consistently enough to warrant roster consideration in most formats, but there's no question he turned more than a few heads with his play Thursday.

  • Stars' Oskar Back: Notches first NHL point

    Back tallied a short-handed assist while logging 9:02 of ice time during Thursday's 3-2 loss to the Capitals.

    Back's helper was his first career NHL point and comes in his fifth NHL appearance after signing a one-year contract with Dallas in June. The third-round pick from the 2018 NHL Entry Draft could be returning to the minors before too long since Tyler Seguin (lower body) is nearing a return.

  • Stars' Oskar Back: Signs one-year deal

    Back signed a one-year, two-way contract with Dallas on Tuesday.

    Back collected seven goals and 36 points in 59 regular-season contests for AHL Texas in 2023-24. The 24-year-old forward doesn't have any NHL experience yet. Back will probably spend most, if not all, of the 2024-25 campaign in the minors.

  • Stars' Oskar Back: Summoned from AHL

    Back was recalled from AHL Texas on Saturday.
