DALLAS – Jason Robertson and Miro Heiskanen, who each missed the entire Western Conference First Round for the Dallas Stars, are expected to return from injury in the second round, though coach Pete DeBoer is not certain when that will be.

DeBoer addressed the status of two of Dallas' core players, Miro Heiskanen and Jason Robertson, after Saturday’s Game 7 win, offering optimism but no guarantees or a set timeline for their respective returns.

The Dallas Stars survived a seven-game series vs. the Colorado Avalanche with two of their best players sidelined. They may not have to do the same in Round 2.
