The Dallas Stars had an optional skate in Frisco on Friday. Nine players were on the ice including center Jamie Benn, who has missed the last two games with a wrist injury.
Benn, who skated at one end of the ice with assistant coach Paul Jerrard, wasn’t shooting any pucks during his time on the ice. He is questionable for tomorrow’s game against the Chicago Blackhawks at American Airlines Center.
C Jamie Benn (wrist) officially out tonight vs. #NHLDucks, DAL coach Glen Gulutzan said.
Benn will miss his second straight game with a wrist injury tonight. The Stars struggled vs. Nashville without Benn on Tuesday, so they could be in tough again tonight vs. a tough Ducks team. There is no timetable for Benn's return.
Jamie Benn doubtful for tomorrow.
Benn's injured wrist kept him out of last night's contest and it will likely keep him out tomorrow. Monitor his status tomorrow for a more accurate report on his availability.
Jamie Benn unlikely.
Benn does not have a broken wrist or concussion but he is still unlikely for tonight's game vs. Minnesota. Consider him day-to-day.
Jamie Benn doubtful with wrist injury, no concussion.
While the concussion is great news, the wrist injury is worrisome. Might not be the worst idea to bench Benn if you are in a weekly league. Daily league should continue to monitor his situation as he is doubtful for tomorrow's game.
