Seguin missed Friday's game in Winnipeg but practiced on Saturday and "should be fine" for Sunday's game according to head coach Rick Bowness. Expect confirmation either a few hours prior to puck-drop or when the Stars hit the ice for warmups at 3:30 PM ET.
Both Seguin and Miro Heiskanen are under the weather and missed the morning skate. Head coach Rick Bowness called both of them game-time decisions in Winnipeg.
Seguin has yet to play this season but is nearing his debut and could come Monday in Florida. When Seguin does play, he will likely centre the second line with Jamie Benn and Denis Gurianov on his wings. Seguin had 17 goals and 33 assists (50 points) in 69 games last year.
Seguin missed the Stars' round-robin finale but will be available for Game 1 according to head coach Rick Bowness. Seguin failed to record a point in his two round-robin appearances and had no points in three games vs. the Flames this season.
Seguin was a question mark for Tuesday’s game because of an illness, but was on the ice for the morning skate and will play tonight vs. the Wild. Seguin has two goals and four assists (six points) in his last eight games and 45 points (16G / 29A) in 48 games this season.
Seguin has been held off of the ice at the start of training camp due to a hairline fracture on his heel. The Stars season doesn’t start for another 13 days, so if he starts skating early next week, Seguin could be ready for the season opener vs. Anaheim.
Seguin was set to play for Team Canada at the World Cup of Hockey but suffered a hairline fracture to his heel and was returned to Dallas. Stars’ GM Jim Nill expects Seguin to be ready for their season opener in two weeks.
Seguin missed game one and skated as an extra in the morning skate, but he said he is good to go tonight the decision is up to head coach Lindy Ruff whether or not he plays. Monitor his status when the Stars hit the ice for warmups at 7:30 p.m. ET.
Stars head coach Lindy Ruff said if it were game seven that Seguin would likely be in the lineup tonight, but he will sit out of game one because he needs more practice time. Despite missing tonight’s contest it looks like the 24-year-old will be in the lineup for Game 2 on Saturday.
Seguin took part in Monday’s practice, but skated in as an extra, which suggests that he won’t be ready to go to begin the playoffs. Seguin is three and a half weeks into his original 3-4 week timetable, so Seguin’s return appears to be on the horizon.
