Stars could be getting some injured players back
Mark Stepneski of Inside Edge: Dallas Stars forward Alexander Radulov will return to the lineup tonight. He’s missed 10 of their past 11 games with a lower-body injury.
There is a chance that forward Brett Richie could return to the lineup as well. Ritchie has been out for four games with an upper-body infection/inflammation. Head coach Jim Montgomery said it’s about a 95 percent chance that he re-enters the lineup.
The Stars are also thinking that defenseman Roman Polak could play.
” not around the rink today. Before practice we hadn’t heard from him. We imagine him to be a player, but I can’t confirm it,” Montgomery said.
