Lundkvist has been a healthy scratch for Dallas' previous three games but will draw back into the lineup Tuesday as they take on Toronto. The 22-year-old has had an up-and-down season with a goal, four assists, and 41 SOG through 22 games while averaging only 17:29 TOI.

Lundkvist has gone pointless with a minus-4 rating in his last five games. Joel Hanley is expected to draw into the lineup to replace Lundkvist.

Lundkvist was selected No.28 overall in the 2018 NHL draft and registered four points (1G / 3A) in 25 NHL games with the Rangers last season. He spent most of the season in the AHL, posting 15 points (3G / 12A) in 34 games. Lundkvist will battle with Thomas Harley and Colin Miller for playing time in Dallas and could be a future D-partner of Miro Heiskanen.
