Impact Steel suffered his injury during his final shift against Washington on Thursday, and the Stars will likely wait to see how he feels in the hours leading up to Saturday's matchup before determining his status. If Steel is unable to dress against the Oilers, the Stars will likely call up another skater to provide additional depth.

Steel appears to be a lock for a fourth-line role, but it would likely take injuries higher in the lineup for him to earn more ice time.

Impact Steel's third-period tally chased Tristan Jarry from the game. The goal was Steel's first point in six outings.

The 26-year-old is up to eight goals, 21 points, 71 shots on net, 52 hits and 27 PIM through 66 appearances.

MARCH 23, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

The 26-year-old is at 18 points, 54 shots on net and a plus-7 rating through 49 appearances in a bottom-six role.

Impact The 26-year-old banged home the rebound on a Radek Faksa shot midway through the second period to wrap up the scoring on the night.

The 25-year-old has 15 points, 48 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through 44 appearances, which likely isn't enough production to justify a roster spot in most fantasy formats.

Impact Steel has done alright in January with four points, 10 shots on goal and a plus-2 rating over 11 contests.

The 25-year-old is at 14 points, 46 shots on net, 20 hits, 19 PIM and a plus-3 rating through 41 appearances.
