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.

Top defenseman Miro Heiskanen and prolific forward Jason Robertson, their leading goal scorer in the regular season, missed the seven-game series against Colorado because of lower-body injuries.
