Stars' Radek Faksa: Expected to play Tuesday
Faksa (lower body) is expected to play against Colorado on Tuesday, according to Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News.
Faksa left Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to Pittsburgh after logging only 8:27 of ice time due to a lower-body injury, but he appears to have avoided missing additional action. The 32-year-old forward has contributed one assist, four shots on net, six blocked shots and seven hits in five games this season.

Stars' Joel Kiviranta: Slated to return Tuesday
Head coach Glen Gulutzan said Monday that he expects Kiviranta (lower body) to be good to go for Tuesday's game against the Avalanche, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.
Kiviranta has been sidelined for the Stars' last two games due to his lower-body injury, but it appears as though he'll be back in action Tuesday. Across his first two appearances of the season, he's recorded a goal, four hits and a blocked shot while averaging 10:28 of ice time.

Stars' Matt Duchene: Out for about three months
Duchene will be out for approximately three months after undergoing surgery to repair a core injury, the team announced Monday.
The Stars placed Duchene on long-term injured reserve just before the start of the 2026-27 campaign. It remains unclear when he will return, but his new timeline could keep him out until at least mid-January. Duchene posted 16 goals, 45 points and 89 shots on net in 57 regular-season appearances for Dallas in 2025-26.

Stars' Tyler Seguin: Forces overtime
Seguin scored a goal on two shots in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Penguins.
Seguin scored with 30 seconds left in the third period, tying the game to salvage a standings point. The goal was his first point of the season, to go with 11 shots on net, one hit, one blocked shots, six PIM and a minus-2 rating over five contests. Seguin is coming back from a torn ACL that ended his 2025-26 campaign in early December. He's filling a middle-six role for the Stars early in the campaign, but it wouldn't be surprising if he still needs to shake off some rust given the lengthy recovery process of his most recent injury.

Stars' Jake Oettinger: Steady in shootout loss
Oettinger stopped 19 of 20 shots in Saturday's 2-1 shootout loss to the Penguins.
Oettinger's bid for a third straight shutout was broken up by Connor Dewar in the third period. The 27-year-old Oettinger still put in another strong outing, proving he's been well worth the early-round pick fantasy managers needed to select him this year. Over four starts, Oettinger is 2-1-1 with three goals allowed on 81 shots. The Stars' defense has been stingy, which will make it tough to maintain a high save percentage, but he's in a great spot for picking up wins as well as seeing plenty of starts. Expect Oettinger and Casey DeSmith to split the upcoming home-and-home set versus the Avalanche, which begins Tuesday in Dallas before shifting to Denver on Wednesday.

Stars' Radek Faksa: Suffers lower-body injury
Faksa has sustained a lower-body injury and won't return to Saturday's game against Pittsburgh.
Faksa has an assist in five outings in 2026-27, including Saturday's action. Joel Kiviranta (lower body) is questionable for Tuesday's tilt against Colorado after missing the past two games. If Faksa and Kiviranta both can't play Tuesday, then the Stars might need to summon a forward from the minors.

Stars' Jake Oettinger: Tending twine Saturday
Oettinger will guard the road crease in Saturday's clash with the Penguins, per Seth Rorabaugh of Tribune-Review Sports.
After being handed a loss in the Stars' Opening Night matchup, Oettinger has responded extremely well, posting back-to-back shutouts in his two most recent outings. The 27-year-old netminder currently has a 2-1-0 record, an 0.67 GAA and a .967 save percentage over 61 shots on net across three outings. He'll look to carry his momentum into Saturday's tough clash against the Penguins, who are currently tied for fifth in the NHL with 4.00 goals per game to begin the new season. Regardless, Oettinger should be started with confidence in all fantasy formats in Saturday's matchup.

Stars' Sam Steel: Puts away goal in win
Steel scored a goal and went plus-2 in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.
The Stars are still tinkering with line combinations, and the latest adjustment had Steel alongside Wyatt Johnston and Mikko Rantanen to begin Thursday's game. That's a great spot, but it's unclear if Steel will stay there in the long run. He's a versatile forward who can fit in all over the lineup. He has two points, seven shots on net, three hits and a plus-2 rating over four appearances.

Stars' Roope Hintz: Strikes on power play
Hintz scored a power-play goal on six shots in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.
Hintz had the last tally of the game. The center is starting to get going with three points over his last two outings. He's up to nine shots on net, seven hits and a plus-2 rating across four contests. Hintz should continue to see steady top-six usage and power-play time.

Stars' Jake Oettinger: Posts 26-save shutout
Oettinger stopped all 26 shots he faced in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.
Oettinger delivered another flawless performance between the pipes, recording a second consecutive shutout while helping Dallas secure a comfortable road victory. Oettinger was beaten four times in the season opener against the Blues, but he's bounced back and has stopped each of the last 39 shots he's faced. Casey DeSmith is a strong backup alternative who can start on any given day, but Oettinger is locked in as the Stars' No. 1 goaltender until further notice.

Stars' Jason Robertson: Scores vs. Buffalo
Robertson scored a goal on four shots in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.
Robertson was one of four Dallas players to find the back of the net, joining Mikko Rantanen, Roope Hintz and Sam Steel in the scoring column. His four shots ranked second on the team behind Hintz's six, highlighting his involvement in an efficient offensive showing for Dallas, and he's trending in the right direction. After going pointless in the first two games of the campaign, Robertson has posted three points in his last two games (two goals, one assist). He's also taken four shots in each of his last two appearances after tallying three combined in his first two showings.

Stars' Wyatt Johnston: Records three assists
Johnston recorded three assists, including one on the power play, and one shot on goal in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.
Johnston was one of Dallas' primary playmakers, matching Rantanen with three assists while helping the Stars generate offense throughout the contest. The 23-year-old center also won seven of 11 faceoffs, providing a strong all-around contribution in the convincing victory, and he's up to four assists this season. He's lacking in the goals column, though, as he hasn't scored in four appearances despite taking 10 shots on goal.

Stars' Mikko Rantanen: Records four points in shutout win
Rantanen scored a goal on two shots and added three assists, including one on the power play, in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.
Rantanen factored into all four Dallas goals, delivering a dominant offensive performance despite playing a season-low 15:27. The Finnish winger also finished with a plus-3 rating and contributed three points at even strength, helping Dallas control the game without relying heavily on its power play. His chemistry with Wyatt Johnston was particularly productive, as the pair combined for seven points. Rantanen went pointless in the season-opening loss to the Blues, but he's turned things around with six points (two goals, four helpers) in his last three outings.

Stars' Jake Oettinger: Tending twine Thursday
Oettinger will defend the cage for Thursday's road clash with the Sabres, Heather Engel of NHL.com reports.
Oettinger is coming off a shutout victory over the Sharks on Monday, though he only faced 13 shots in that contest. While the 27-year-old backstop figures to face more rubber from Buffalo, he remains an elite netminder capable of putting together a fifth straight 35-win season.

Stars' Joel Kiviranta: Set to miss next two games
Kiviranta (lower body) will miss Dallas' upcoming two-game road trip, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports Wednesday.
Dallas will play in Buffalo on Thursday and Pittsburgh on Saturday without Kiviranta. However, the hope is that he's ready to go after the road trip, per Robert Tiffin of NHL.com, so Kiviranta might still be an option for Tuesday's home game against Colorado. The 30-year-old has a goal in two appearances with the Stars in 2025-26. Colin Blackwell will likely draw back into the lineup due to Kiviranta's absence.

Stars' Roope Hintz: Dishes pair of assists
Hintz notched two assists and a plus-3 rating in Monday's 5-0 win over the Sharks.
Hintz got on the scoresheet for the first time in three games this season with the pair of helpers. He set up Miro Heiskanen's opening tally late in the first period and also assisted Jamie Benn's goal to stretch the Dallas lead to 3-0. Hintz has functioned in a top-six role to start the year, adding three shots on net, seven hits and a plus-1 rating. The Stars have a fair amount of balance between the first and second lines -- neither trio is likely to see heavy ice time in most situations.
