Seguin (lower body) is expected back before the end of the regular season.

Ty Dellandrea has been playing in Seguin's spot on the second line with Matt Duchene and Mason Marchment over the last few games since Seguin has been out of the lineup. Before his injury, Seguin was enjoying his best campaign in several years with 45 points (20G / 25A) in 58 games. Seguin's injury allowed the Stars to recall Logan Stankoven, who has been playing superbly on a line with Jamie Benn and Wyatt Johnston.

The Maple Leafs acquired Ilya Lyubushkin in a three-team trade that involved the Ducks and Hurricanes.

The Maple Leafs get Lyubushkin from the Ducks, who received a third-round pick and retained 50 percent of his $2.75M AAV cap-hit. The Hurricanes received a sixth-round pick to retain 25 percent of the contract. Lyubushkin is in his sixth NHL season and heads to Toronto with four assists, 112 hits and 138 blocked shots in 55 games this season.

Oettinger will start on Thursday vs. Winnipeg.

Oettinger was between the pipes for the Stars on Tuesday, allowing five goals on 27 shots (.815 SV%) in a 5-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche, and will attempt to rebound on Thursday night. The Stars are -129 home favourites in a battle for Central division supremacy against the Winnipeg Jets on Thursday. The Stars have fared well against the Jets this season, winning both previous contests, including a 27-save shutout for Oettinger in a 2-0 victory.

Oettinger will start Tuesday in Colorado.

Oettinger will likely start in the back end of a back-to-back on Tuesday when the Stars face off against their divisional rival, the Colorado Avalanche. The 24-year-old Oettinger was excellent in his last outing, albeit lightly tested, saving 20 of 21 shots (.952 SV) in a 2-1 victory over the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday. The Stars last played the Avalanche on January 4th, a 5-4 overtime loss with Scott Wedgewood between the pipes.

Seguin (lower body) is out on Monday and considered week-to-week.

Seguin was replaced on the second line by Ty Dellandrea on Saturday, a move that will likely remain for the foreseeable future as he will be out of the lineup on a week-to-week basis. Before his injury, Seguin was enjoying his best campaign in several years with 45 points (20G / 25A) in 58 games. Seguin's injury allowed Logan Stankoven to make his NHL debut and play on a line with Jamie Benn and Wyatt Johnston.

Bastian (lower body) was placed on Injured Reserve on Friday.

Bastian has been placed on Injured Reserve Friday after an extremely eventful game on Thursday vs. New York. Bastian was the recipient of a hard hit from New York's Matt Rempe Thursday which resulted in a five-minute major and ejection and later fought Jacob Trouba after receiving another hard hit. The 26-year-old was on pace to break his previous career high in games played (60) but will not be out indefinitely. He currently has 12 points, (5G/7A), 32 PIMs and a -10 plus/minus in 54 games played before his injury.

Oettinger will start on Thursday in Ottawa.

After receiving only his second night off in the last 11 games, Oettinger will return to the crease on Thursday night. Oettinger has dropped his last two contests (0-0-2), allowing three or more goals in both while posting an unimpressive .870 SV%. The Stars have lost three straight (0-1-2) but are -157 road favourites entering action against the Ottawa Senators.

Duchene (lower-body) is expected to play in New York on Tuesday.

Duchene participated in the pre-game skate on Monday but was a last-minute scratch for the Stars due to a lower-body injury. He was replaced by Sam Steel on the second line in Monday's contest and was a game-time decision on Tuesday.

Duchene (lower body) will be a game-time decision on Tuesday vs. New York.

Duchene participated in the pre-game skate on Monday but was a last-minute scratch for the Stars due to a lower-body injury. He was replaced by Sam Steel on the second line in Monday's contest and will be a game-time decision on Tuesday. The Stars recalled highly-touted offensive prospect Logan Stankoven, who will likely draw into the lineup if Duchene is still unavailable.
