Coach Glenn Gullitson gave a quick update, saying there's no real info yet on Heiskanen, but he doubts the Finnish star will suit up for Saturday's game.
What updates have been provided about Heiskanen's injury status?

What strategies will the Stars need to implement moving forward?

With playoffs looming, Dallas is hoping this doesn't derail their shot at a deep run, but they've got to lean on depth now to keep the momentum rolling.
