Winning at American Airlines Center has been a daunting task for visitors this season.
With five straight victories on home ice, Dallas has compiled an exceptional 14-3-1 record in their own barn.
Nevertheless, head coach Rick Bowness' contingent has dropped two games in a row.
After falling 7-1 to the Panthers in Sunrise on Friday, the Stars suffered a 3-1 defeat to the Lightning in Tampa on Saturday.
Bowness and company received some good news on Monday when winger Denis Gurianov and goaltender Braden Holtby were back at practice after missing three games while in the NHL's COVID-19 protocol.
Following the morning skate, Bowness indicated that Gurianov will play. Goaltender Jake Oettinger will be the starter.
For his part, winger Jason Robertson will miss his second straight game with a lower-body injury.
Robertson is a key offensive weapon for Dallas, ranking second in scoring with 32 points (13 goals, 19 assists) behind Joe Pavelski, who boasts a team-leading 36 points (15 goals, 21 assists).
