Dallas Stars not getting shut out on power play in this West final against Oilers

The Dallas Stars aren’t getting shut out on the power play in the Western Conference final against Edmonton this time
MAY 22, 2025 • Associated Press
Sparks comeback effort Heiskanen scored a goal on two shots and added an assist in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Oilers in Game 1.
Impact Both of Heiskanen's points came on power plays early in the third period. The 25-year-old defenseman got the Stars back within a goal and then added a helper on Mikael Granlund's equalizer. This effort gave Heiskanen four points, eight shots on net, five hits and an even plus-minus rating over four playoff appearances since he returned from a long-term knee injury. He appears to be close to 100 percent, as he's handled a heavier workload over the Stars' last two games, and the team was comfortable enough to go back to six defensemen in the lineup for this series opener.

Supplies assist Saturday Heiskanen logged an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Jets in Game 6.
Impact Heiskanen picked up two assists, six shots on net, four hits and a minus-1 rating over three games versus the Jets after returning from a long-term knee injury. His ice time has ticked steadily upward -- he saw 23:40 in this contest, which had just 1:33 of overtime before it ended. The Stars held a series lead throughout the time Heiskanen's been back, allowing them to ease him in. That will likely end in the Western Conference Finals, as the 25-year-old will be tasked with shutting down Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl in a rematch of last year's matchup in the same round, which the Oilers won in six games.

Adds power-play helper in return Heiskanen notched a power-play assist in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Jets in Game 4.
Impact Heiskanen returned from a 42-game absence due to a knee injury sustained versus Vegas in January. The 25-year-old defenseman was eased back into the lineup, seeing 14:52 of ice time over 19 shifts while the Stars had seven blueliners dressed. Given the length of his absence, it may be a while longer before Heiskanen is near his regular-season average of 25:10 per game. Still, having him back is a big boost to the Stars' blue line, and it puts the team at full strength in the second round.

Miro Heiskanen has assist in playoff return for the Stars after missing 42 games with knee injury

Defenseman Miro Heiskanen had an assist in his return for Dallas Stars in the NHL playoffs after missing 3 1/2 months with a left knee injury
MAY 13, 2025 • Associated Press
Removed from LTIR Heiskanen (knee) was activated from long-term injured reserve Tuesday.
Impact As expected, Heiskanen appears ready to return to the lineup versus Winnipeg on Tuesday in Game 4. After missing 42 straight outings, the Stars might ease Heiskanen back into the fold by dressing seven defensemen and 11 forwards. However, he could still occupy a top-pairing role and see power-play time. Heiskanen had five goals, 25 points, 108 shots on net and 85 blocked shots across 50 appearances during the 2024-25 regular season.

Probable to play in Game 4 Head coach Pete DeBoer said he expects Heiskanen to play in Game 4 against the Jets on Tuesday, according to Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News.
Impact Heiskanen will participate in Tuesday's morning skate, and as long as he doesn't suffer any setbacks prior to puck drop, he'll suit up for the first time since the end of January. The Stars may elect to roll with 11 forwards and seven defensemen due to Heiskanen's return, so it's unclear what type of workload the left-shot blueliner will see in his first game back from a knee injury. The 25-year-old has racked up 16 goals and 45 helpers over 85 career playoff outings.

Not playing Friday Heiskanen (knee) has been ruled out of Game 2 in Winnipeg on Friday, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.
Impact Heiskanen has been out of action since Jan. 28 when he suffered a knee injury. Heiskanen will miss his 40th straight game. He has been practicing with the Stars and could return as early as Sunday when the Stars return home for Game 3. Heiskanen had five goals and 20 assists across 50 regular-season games in 2024-25.
