Stars' Logan Stankoven: Two points in Thursday's win
Rotowire
Stankoven scored an empty-net goal on six shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 3-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Stankoven earned his third multi-point effort of the campaign in this contest. The 21-year-old was once again on the third line, but he's been productive despite frequently moving around the lineup. He's up to two goals, 10 helpers, 33 shots on net and a plus-4 rating through 12 appearances, and that's with a 6.1 shooting percentage that is likely well below his talent level.

Stars' Logan Stankoven: Assists in consecutive games
Rotowire
Stankoven logged an assist and a game-high five shots on goal in Tuesday's 3-2 shootout win over the Sharks.

While he began the season on the first line, Stankoven was down to a third-line role for the second game in a row Tuesday, though he saw his most ice time in any game (17:51) in this contest, as the Stars tend to balance the usage across the top-nine forwards.

Stars' Logan Stankoven: Tallies twice in Game 3
Rotowire
Stankoven scored a pair of goals, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.
Predictably, adjusting to the playoffs has been tougher for the 21-year-old rookie than it was when he came up for the last quarter of the regular season. Stankoven is up to four points, 22 shots on net, 15 hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through 10 playoff contests. He's seen some even-strength time on the first line, but his usage overall is more limited than that role would suggest, as head coach Pete DeBoer is likely trying to shelter Stankoven, especially on the road.
