Stars Face Canucks Thursday Night; Benn Returns After Injury

DALLAS (November 20) – The Dallas Stars will face off against the Vancouver Canucks tonight at 9:00 p.m. at Rogers Arena. Fans can watch the game on Victory+, listen on The Ticket 96.7-FM or 1310-AM, or follow live stats on the NHL Game Center.

The game marks Jamie Benn’s return after missing the first 19 games of the season due to a collapsed lung. Benn played Tuesday against the New York Islanders, logging almost 10 minutes on the ice. Despite the Stars’ 3-2 loss, Head Coach Glen Gulutzan was pleased with Benn’s performance, noting his physicality and puck play. Gulutzan said he plans to build him up from here.

“It felt good to be back,” Benn said after his season debut.

Longtime teammate Seguin said Benn’s recovery was inspirational.

The Canucks will be looking to extend defenseman Quinn Hughes’ six-game point streak. Hughes leads Vancouver in scoring this season. Hughes also carries a three-game point streak against the Stars.

Statistically, the Stars hold an advantage on the power play, ranking second in the NHL, while the Canucks struggle on the penalty kill, ranking 32nd.

Additionally, Coach Gulutzan noted that Duchene is on the road trip, which is a good sign.
