The Dallas Stars have had relative luck when it comes to injuries this season, with most of their games played lost to injury restricted to Martin Hanzal (various things all season long) and Marc Methot’s knee issue. But that luck has run out a bit today.
Radek Faksa has been ruled out and listed as “day-to-day” with a foot injury. Esa Lindell is sick, and may still play tonight if he’s feeling up to it. Faksa has played in 64 of Dallas’ 65 games this season, while Lindell has played big minutes in all of them this year.
