Matt Duchene - Collects two points in loss Duchene scored a goal on four shots and added an assist in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Blackhawks.

Impact Duchene has two goals and three assists over his last five outings. The 34-year-old forward is still working on consistency after losing a larger chunk of the campaign to an upper-body injury. He's produced seven points, 20 shots on net, nine blocked shots and a minus-2 rating across 16 appearances so far while mainly featuring in the middle six.

Jason Robertson - Goal, assist in loss Robertson scored a goal on three shots and added an assist in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Blackhawks.

Impact Robertson has four goals and four helpers over his last six games. The 26-year-old earned both points late in the third period as the Stars made a comeback effort that came up one goal short. Robertson is up to 24 goals, 24 helpers, 159 shots on net, 24 hits and a plus-15 rating through 41 appearances this season. He had 80 points in each of the last two regular seasons, but he's on track for a better campaign in 2025-26, though not one quite as good as his career-best 109-point effort in 2022-23.

Mikko Rantanen - Earns two points in loss Rantanen scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, went plus-3 and logged two hits in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Blackhawks.

Impact Rantanen had a six-game point streak snapped Wednesday, but he bounced right back with his sixth multi-point effort in the last eight contests. Over that span, Rantanen has rattled off three goals and 11 assists. The winger is up to 16 goals, 40 helpers, 99 shots on net, 29 hits, 71 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 40 outings this season. After missing the 100-point mark while splitting time with three teams in 2024-25, Rantanen has found success and stability in his first half of his first full year with the Stars.

Jake Oettinger - Yields four goals in loss Oettinger allowed four goals on 21 shots in Thursday's 4-3 loss to the Blackhawks.

Impact Oettinger has allowed seven goals on 54 shots over a pair of losses (0-1-1) to the Blackhawks in the last week. The 27-year-old netminder gave up the first two goals on Chicago power plays, and a misplay led to Ilya Mikheyev's decisive tally early in the third period. Oettinger is down to 16-7-3 with a 2.57 GAA and a .907 save percentage across 26 starts this season. He's been sharing the crease with Casey DeSmith lately, though it wouldn't be surprising to see Oettinger between the pipes for Sunday's matinee game against the Canadiens.

Mavrik Bourque - Scores in loss to Buffalo Bourque scored a goal in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Sabres.

Impact Bourque broke the deadlock for the Stars just 15 seconds into the game with a snap shot, but that would be all the offense Dallas would muster throughout the game. Bourque should continue to see opportunities to produce due to his top-six role in the lineup, but he hasn't been at his best lately. He has notched just four points (two goals, two assists) over his last 10 outings.

Casey DeSmith - Tagged with loss Wednesday DeSmith stopped 27 of 31 shots in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to the Sabres.

Impact DeSmith has been trending in the wrong direction of late, allowing three or more goals in each of his last three starts while dropping his previous two outings. DeSmith remains one of the best backups in the league, but he's trending in the wrong direction of late. He owns a 3-1-1 record, but with a 3.01 GAA and an .894 save percentage over his last five appearances.
