Dallas Stars News

The Stars have signed Joe Pavelski to a one-year contract extension worth $6.0M AAV.

Pavelski's new deal will pay him $5.5 million in base salary and $500K in games played incentives--$100K for each of 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 games played. Pavelski is having another terrific season in Dallas, scoring 22 goals with 37 assists (59 points) in 56 games. He has shown tremendous chemistry with Roope Hintz and Jason Robertson, and that line will live on for at least one more season.

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

Heiskanen has been diagnosed with mononucleosis and is out indefinitely. The Stars have placed him on IR retroactive to March 2nd, meaning he's eligible to return to the lineup whenever he is healthy, but mononucleosis is likely to sideline him for a lengthy period of time.

Seguin (illness) is expected to be back in the Stars lineup on Sunday.

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.
