Dallas Stars: Was Healthy Scratching Valeri Nichushkin the Right Call?

Since his return to the Dallas Stars, Valeri Nichushkin hasn’t had the most impressive year offensively.

He missed the first few games of the year because of an injury, but in the 21 games he’s played so far, he’s only got 4 points and is still looking for his first goal.

There are only two other forwards this season without a goal. One is Justin Dowling, who only played 6 games with the Stars while he was up. The other is Brett Ritchie, who has been healthy scratched this season as well.
