Jamie Benn and Tyler Seguin's decade-long pursuit of a Stanley Cup in Dallas is pretty special. Time is not slowing down, though.

On Matt Duchene's prognosis, how the Stars might adapt to his absence if need be, and why the instigator penalty can be a tough one to predict

On Matt Duchene and Intermittent Instigator Penalties

The Dallas center is day-to-day after the hit from Jake Middleton on Tuesday night

Gulutzan’s tone on Duchene was fairly optimistic. Said he wouldn’t rule him out for tomorrow, called him “day to day” for now.

Hintz and Rantanen out here early for today’s optional practice.

Game 3 AfterThoughts: Another Dramatic Third Period, Fortunately and Unfortunately

Matt Duchene did not return after a big hit, but the Stars held on to win their third game in a row

Gulutzan said Duchene will need to be evaluated further. No update right now.

Also said he didn’t like the hit. Thought it was high.

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 1d

Duchene not on the bench. May have been pulled for concussion protocol, and understandably so. He looked shaky after the hit that prompted the Petrovic fight and penalty.

Bourque and Johnston skated with Seguin on a line just now.

As has been happening this season, Steel has moved from the top line down to third line, resulting in a fair few shifts of

Robertson-Hintz-Rantanen
Johnston-Duchene-Seguin

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 1d

3-0, another power play goal. Feed from Duchene bounces off Bogosian's skate and goes five-hole.

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 1d

Wyatt Johnston had space and took it, stickhandling his way past a stickless Middlteton and going far corner. 2-0, PPG.

Roope Hintz sets up Esa Lindell, 1-0. Good work from Hintz to win the race to the puck.

$20 to any reporter in the postgame press conference who asks Sal Frelick if he did that on purpose.

Ah, looks like LF ump did eventually signal safe, and vehemently. Great work by him, bad work by Lady Fortune.

Robert Tiffin @tiffin.bsky.social · 2d

Was there any umpire signal regarding the catch/no-catch?
