Dallas Stars managed to steal the show at their home stand American Airlines Arena in a convincing win 4-1 against their fierce rival, Winnipeg Jets. Despite lot of bright spots, namely the team's improved overall defensive play and more consistent scoring and goaltender performance from Joonas Korpisalo, the game also had one bad thing worth of notion - suspension of Alex Dergachyov for the next 7 game for was what called as an attempt to injury just a minute to go before the end of the game. Alexander Dergachyov had a good thing going - it seemed like he's finally having his break-out year this season as he grown to his ceiling. Dergachyov had 6 points in just 5 games (leads team with Grigorenko, both 6 points in 5 games) and now he will be forced to sit in the pressbox and just watch the next games as spectator. Hopefully, it will not stop him from continuing to impress the league.

It has been also announced that another young forward, two-way centreman Jayce Hawryluk has been called up to Dallas from Texas (AHL), to replace Dergachyov on the roster.

Also, Bogdan Yakimov is dealing with a minor injury that could take him out for the next week or so, per reports. Another forward will be needed to be called up from the AHL soon.

As has been previously noted, veteran depth forwards Derek Roy, Nino Niederreiter and Tomas Filippi haven't been able to impress their coaches enough so far, so their status for the next stretch will be evaluated.

It remains open to see which new forwards or if some, will get their chance to replace suspended Dergarchyov, injured Yakimov and below averarge performers Niederreiter, Roy and Filippi.

More to come soon.
