Dallas Stars forward Radek Faksa will return to the lineup for Sunday’s Game 7 of the Western Conference first-round series versus the visiting Vegas Golden Knights.
Faksa has been sidelined with an undisclosed injury since the third period of Game 2 of the best-of-seven series. He will replace Ty Dellandrea, who scored the game-winning goal for Dallas in its 4-2 victory over Vegas in Game 4 on Monday.
Faksa, 30, recorded 19 points (seven goals, 12 assists) in 74 games during the regular season. He has totaled 200 points (89 goals, 111 assists) in 638 career games since being selected by the Stars with the 13th overall pick of the 2012 NHL Draft.
Sunday’s winner will face the Colorado Avalanche in the second round of the playoffs.
