Dallas Stars forward Tyler Seguin is expected to miss the remainder of the NHL season after suffering a torn ACL in his right knee during a game against the New York Rangers. The injury occurred in the first period when Seguin got tangled with Rangers defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov, leading to Seguin going down in pain and needing assistance to leave the ice. Coach Glen Gulutzan confirmed that Seguin would be out for a significant amount of time, likely the rest of the season, marking a major setback for the team. Seguin, 33, who has been a key player for the Stars since joining in 2013, has 17 points (7 goals, 10 assists) in 27 games this season and recently played his 1,000th NHL game. He previously missed most of last season due to hip surgery but returned for the playoffs. His injury adds to the Stars' list of injured players, including Matt Duchene, who is nearing a return. The team is already shorthanded and will need other players to step up. Nathan Bastian was expected to replace Seguin in the lineup, and long-term, the team hopes Duchene can help fill the void once healthy. Gulutzan emphasized the importance of the remaining players to continue pushing forward despite the adversity. Seguin's career highlights include winning the Stanley Cup with the Boston Bruins in 2011 and accumulating over 800 points in his NHL career. The Stars, currently second in the Central Division with a 17-5-5 record, will need to adapt to his absence as they continue their season.
