The team suspended Cole with pay pending investigation, which was launched by the NHL on Sunday.






Bishop was expected to return at some point during the 2021 season but the Stars will keep him out to allow him time "to continue his rehabilitation and return to full health for the 2022 season." With Bishop out, the Stars will continue to roll with a goaltending tandem of Anton Khudobin and Jake Oettinger.

Cole was activated from the COVID-19 list and will play for the first time since February 2nd. Cole, who has one assist in 10 games, will be paired with Jared Spurgeon.

Cole was acquired from the Avalanche for Greg Pateryn on Tuesday and will replace him in the lineup immediately. Cole, who will skate on the third pair with Carson Soucy, had 26 points (4G / 22A) with 83 hits and 122 blocked shots in 65 games with the Avalanche last year.


With Bishop out for at least one month, the Stars will continue to lean on Anton Khudobin as their No.1 netminder, as they did during their playoff run. Bishop told The Athletic that the surgery was to repair the meniscus in his right knee and that he is expecting to get back to Dallas in the next couple of weeks and hopes to be on the ice soon.
