Both teams will address injury concerns, with Matt Duchene and other key players missing for Dallas, while Seattle’s Jared McCann is also day-to-day due to lower body issues. The teams will compete for vital points as the season progresses towards the playoff push.

The matchup promises to be an exciting face-off as the Stars aim to capitalize on their recent success and the Kraken look to rebound from their last game.
