Stars' Tyler Seguin: Two more apples in win
RotowireSeguin logged two assists and a plus-3 rating in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.
Seguin helped out on tallies by Esa Lindell and Vladislav Kolyachonok in this contest. While Seguin has gone five games without a goal, he's racked up seven helpers in that span. The 33-year-old forward is up to seven goals, 10 assists, 29 shots on net, 15 hits and a plus-9 rating through 24 outings this season. As long as he's seeing top-six minutes, he should be productive enough to help in most fantasy formats.

RotowireKolyachonok scored the game-winning goal and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 3-2 victory over the Kraken.
Kolyachonok's long-range shot found the net at 14:16 of the third period, and that stood as the decisive goal. The 24-year-old has picked up both of his points this season over the last two games while filling in on the third pairing. He's added five shots on net, two hits, a plus-1 rating and one blocked shot over five appearances. However, Kolyachonok is unlikely to contribute enough in the long run to be an option for most fantasy managers.
... See More... See LessStars' Esa Lindell: Scores in Wednesday's win
RotowireLindell scored a goal on two shots and blocked two shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.
Lindell has two goals and two helpers over his last seven outings. The 31-year-old defenseman can chip in some offense, but he's being leaned on heavily to shut down opposing teams' top players while theStars are running thin on the blue line. For the season, Lindell has three goals, eight points, a plus-12 rating, 25 shots on net, 47 blocked shots and 14 hits over 24 appearances.

RotowireHintz scored a goal on three shots, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.
Hintz has scored in three straight games, and six of his seven goals on the year have come in November. The 29-year-old center is up to 19 points, 53 shots on net, 15 hits and a plus-6 rating through 19 appearances. Hintz continues to be a steady source of offense in a top-six role and on the first power-play unit.
... See More... See LessStars' Casey DeSmith: Secures fifth win
RotowireDeSmith stopped 26 of 28 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Kraken.
DeSmith handled the second half of a back-to-back after Jake Oettinger defeated the Oilers on Tuesday. The 34-year-old DeSmith put in a good effort, letting two leads slip away before making Vladislav Kolyachonok's tally with 5:44 to go in the third period stand as the game-winner. Overall, DeSmith is up to 5-1-2 with a 2.20 GAA and a .919 save percentage over eight starts in the backup role for Dallas this year. He should continue to be a viable streaming option in fantasy whenever he gets the nod.

RotowireRantanen has served his one-game suspension and will be available to face the Kraken on Wednesday.
Rantanen was handed an automatic one-game ban after receiving game misconducts for boarding in two of his last three outings. In 22 appearances this season, the 29-year-old winger has registered at least a point on 18 occasions. Against the Kraken, Rantanen figures to slot into a first-line role while anchoring the No. 2 power-play unit.

RotowireDeSmith will defend the road crease against Seattle on Wednesday, Mike Heika of theStars' official site reports.
The Stars will play the second half of a back-to-back set after Jake Oettinger appeared in Tuesday's 8-3 win over Edmonton. DeSmith will draw the start for the second time in the team's last six games. Across seven appearances this season, he's gone 4-1-2 with a 2.22 GAA and a .917 save percentage. DeSmith had a successful outing at home against the Kraken on Nov. 9, turning aside 30 of 31 shots (.968 save percentage) in a 2-1 victory.

RotowireKolyachonok notched an assist and two PIM in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Kolyachonok helped out on a Justin Hryckowian tally in the third period. Through four contests, Kolyachonok has a helper, four shots on net, one hit, one blocked shot and a minus-1 rating. The 24-year-old is filling in on the third pairing while theStars are missing Thomas Harley (lower body), Nils Lundkvist (lower body) and Ilya Lyubushkin (undisclosed).
... See More... See LessStars' Radek Faksa: Posts pair of helpers
RotowireFaksa notched two assists and two hits in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Faksa helped out on both of Nathan Bastian's goals in this contest. The 31-year-old Faksa has six helpers over his last six games, which is excellent production for a fourth-line forward. It won't last at that level, but he's been steady with 10 points, 11 shots on net, 33 hits, 16 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 22 appearances this season.
... See More... See LessStars' Tyler Seguin: Dishes pair of power-play assists
RotowireSeguin logged two power-play assists and two hits in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Seguin helped out on goals by Wyatt Johnston and Jason Robertson during the second period. This was Seguin's third multi-point effort across his last five outings. The 33-year-old is up to seven goals, eight assists, four power-play points, 28 shots on net and a plus-6 rating through 23 appearances. He's been steady enough lately to help fantasy managers, and he should remain in a top-six role throughout the year.
... See More... See LessStars' Justin Hryckowian: Adds insurance tally
RotowireHryckowian scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Hryckowian has settled into a third-line role lately, picking up three goals and three assists over 12 outings in November. That's all of his offense in 22 appearances this year, and he's added 21 shots on net, 28 hits and a minus-3 rating. Those numbers won't pop for most fantasy managers, but it looks like he's here to stay in the NHL and is still young enough to grow his offense.

RotowireSteel scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Steel snapped a seven-game point drought with his pair of points in the first period. The 27-year-old's ice time has started to recede amid the slump, but he's still featuring in a top-six role for theStars, where his versatility and compete level have been useful. He's at three goals, nine points, 26 shots on net, 24 hits and a minus-4 rating over 23 appearances. At this pace, he could challenge for the first 30-point campaign of his career.
... See More... See LessStars' Roope Hintz: Buries power-play tally
RotowireHintz scored a power-play goal and blocked two shots in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Hintz has scored in back-to-back games after going four contests without a goal. The 29-year-old center put theStars ahead 2-0 midway through the first period. He's been more of a playmaker this year, racking up six goals and 12 helpers over 18 appearances. He's earned nine of his 18 points on the power play while adding 50 shots on net and a plus-4 rating.
... See More... See LessStars' Jamie Benn: Finally nets 400th career goal
RotowireBenn scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and logged two hits in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Benn went 20 straight regular-season games without a goal while he was stuck on 399 tallies in his career. He put that drought to rest at 3:48 of the first period, igniting theStars' offensive explosion in this contest with his 400th career goal. The 36-year-old has earned three points, seven shots on net, 10 hits and a plus-1 rating over four appearances since returning from surgery to repair a collapsed lung. Benn was listed on the second line Tuesday, but he saw a team-low 12:22 of ice time and is likely to be more of a bottom-six forward throughout 2025-26.
... See More... See LessStars' Jason Robertson: Sets Dallas record for goal streak
RotowireRobertson scored a power-play goal on four shots and added two assists with the man advantage in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Robertson's seven-game goal streak is the longest since theStars moved to Dallas, breaking a record previously held by Mike Modano. The 26-year-old Robertson is on an eight-game point streak consisting of 11 goals and seven helpers. For the season, the winger is up to 14 tallies, 17 helpers, 14 power-play points, 100 shots on net and a plus-8 rating through 23 appearances.
... See More... See LessStars' Wyatt Johnston: Crosses 200-point mark in career
RotowireJohnston scored a goal on three shots and added three assists in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Johnston's second assist was the 100th helper and 200th point of his career. He didn't stay on the milestone number for long, as he picked up a goal and an assist on the power play during the second period as theStars ran away with the lead. Prior to Tuesday, the 22-year-old had gone four contests without a point, a rarity for a player who's developed a reputation for consistency. He's up to 12 goals, 13 helpers, 65 shots on net and a minus-2 rating over 23 appearances this season, with 15 of his 25 points coming on the power play.
... See More... See LessStars' Nathan Bastian: Tallies twice to end slump
RotowireBastian scored twice on three shots, added two PIM and doled out three hits in Tuesday's 8-3 win over the Oilers.
Bastian hadn't scored since Oct. 11 versus the Avalanche, but he was the only Star with multiple goals in this game. The 27-year-old winger had been scratched for seven of the previous nine contests, and he only drew in Tuesday due to Mikko Rantanen's one-game suspension. Bastian has three goals, 12 shots on net, 38 hits, 10 PIM and a plus-3 rating over 16 appearances this year and will continue to challenge for fourth-line minutes.
