Stars Lineup

Patrick Eaves suffered a lower-body injury in Friday’s Game 1 that will keep him out at least for Game 2. In his place, Dallas will re-insert Valeri Nichushkin, who was a scratch on Friday after playing five of six games in the Stars’ first-round series against the Minnesota Wild. Other than that change, Dallas is expected to roll with the same lineup that they used in Game 1.

Here’s what the Stars’ lineup is likely to look like on Sunday:
