The Stars have placed Miro Heiskanen (illness) on injured reserve.

The Stars have signed Miro Heiskanen to an eight-year, $67.6 million contract extension.

After three years in the NHL, Heiskanen ranks 33rd among blueliners with 95 points (28G / 67A) in 205 games. His raise will make him the sixth-highest paid defenseman (as of now) in 2021-22 with an $8.45M AAV cap-hit. Heiskanen is an absolute workhorse for the Stars, ranking ninth in the NHL in TOI/gm (24:58) last season.
