The Dallas Stars will begin the playoffs without top goal scorer Jason Robertson, who suffered a lower-body injury in their last regular-season game, coach Pete DeBoer said Friday.
Robertson is week-to-week, which rules him out for at least the first few games of the opening-round series against the Colorado Avalanche. DeBoer didn't provide any additional details about the injury.
Game 1 is Saturday night in Dallas.
Robertson, who leads the Stars with 35 goals and has 45 assists, got hurt in a 5-1 loss Wednesday at Nashville.
