Keep updated on all the injury news and roster moves from around the NHL with daily Ice Chips.

Dallas Stars

Tyler Seguin (Achilles) returned to the Stars' lineup for Game 2 of their series against the Minnesota Wild, but will miss Monday's Game 3. General manager Jim Nill said Monday that their star forward is day-to-day with his Achilles injury and is rehabbing in Texas. "I thought he looked OK. It's not easy getting back in a game. It's not easy getting back in a regular season game. I think Game 1 might have been an easier test. Game 2 had a lot of intensity and really was his first challenge in five weeks," said head coach Lindy Ruff regarding Seguin's Game 2 performance.  Coach Ruff did confirm that Mattias Janmark, who was a healthy scratch for Game 2, will return to the lineup for Game 3.  - Dallas Morning News
