Lundkvist signed a one-year, $1.25 million contract with the Stars on Monday. - Lundkvist had two goals and 19 points in 59 regular-season games in 2023-24. His role with Dallas might be limited following the signings of defensemen Matt Dumba and Ilya Lyubushkin. As a result, it wouldn't be surprising if Lundkvist ends up serving primarily as Dallas' seventh blueliner, which was a common occurrence for him down the stretch and in the playoffs last season. |

Lundkvist posted an assist in Thursday's 5-3 win over the Avalanche in Game 2. - Lundkvist's minutes have been heavily managed during the postseason -- he's reached 10 minutes in just one of nine playoff games. As such, he's produced next to nothing statistically, with the assist being his first point to go with a minus-1 rating, one shot on goal, five hits and one blocked shot. Lundkvist will almost certainly lose his place in the lineup once Jani Hakanpaa (lower body) is fit to play. |

For the season, Lundkvist has a career-high 18 points with 66 shots on net, 38 hits, 35 blocked shots and a plus-14 rating through 50 appearances. When the Stars' defense is back to full health, he may not have a place in the lineup. |

Lundkvist (face) needed stitches after exiting Wednesday's game versus the Coyotes in the third period, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports. - Lundkvist was impressive over 14:14 of ice time against Arizona with two assists, four shots on goal, two hits and two blocked shots prior to his injury. The 23-year-old was in the lineup because Jani Hakanpaa (lower body) was unable to play Wednesday. Lundkvist has had trouble getting in the lineup, but it appears he's avoided a more serious injury. He should be considered day-to-day ahead of Friday's game versus the Penguins. |

Lundkvist (concussion) will return to the lineup against Winnipeg on Thursday, Brian Rea of Bally Sports Southwest reports. - Lundkvist is set to return to the lineup after missing the Stars' last seven games due to his concussion. With the defenseman back, he could be in line for a spot with the second power-play unit while relegating Joel Hanley to a spot in the press box. For his part, Lundkvist has managed just one point in his previous seven contests, so he probably shouldn't be expected to offer much in the way of fantasy value. |

Lundkvist (concussion) won't play Tuesday versus the Avalanche, Ryan Boulding of NHL.com reports. - Head coach Pete DeBoer said that Jani Hakanpaa (upper body) returning was the only change among his skaters from the group that lost 3-2 in overtime to the Islanders on Monday.

Lundkvist (concussion) won't be available for Monday's game versus the Islanders, Brian Rea of Bally Sports Southwest reports. - Although Lundkvist will miss a sixth straight contest Monday, he's reportedly close to returning, suggesting he could be back as soon as Tuesday against the Avalanche or Thursday versus the Jets.

Lundkvist (concussion) didn't join the Stars for their four-game road trip, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports Monday. - Lundkvist needs just one more point to match his total from last season but will need to wait until at least next Monday's clash with the Islanders to get back on the scoresheet. An injury to Jani Hakanpaa (upper body) will see both Derrick Pouliot and Alex Petrovic inserted into the lineup against Boston on Monday. |

Lundkvist (concussion) won't play Saturday versus Edmonton, per Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine. - Lundkvist was evaluated for a concussion after departing Thursday's game versus Nashville, so it's no surprise he'll miss Saturday's matchup with the Oilers. The 23-year-old blueliner has two goals and 15 points through 43 games this season. Joel Hanley will slot back into the lineup in Lundkvist's absence. |
None |

Lundkvist is undergoing further evaluation for concussion symptoms, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports Friday. - Lundkvist's status against Edmonton on Saturday should probably be considered doubtful at this point, though he hasn't been officially ruled out. The blueliner has generated just five shots in his last six contests while averaging 12:13 of ice time, so few fantasy players are likely to be impacted by his potential absence. If Lundkvist does miss out Saturday, Joel Hanley figures to step into the lineup in his stead. |

Lundkvist left Thursday's contest against Nashville because of an upper-body injury and isn't expected to return. - Lundkvist logged just 1:34 of ice time before leaving the game.

Lundkvist notched an assist and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 4-2 win over the Hurricanes. - Lundkvist snapped his five-game point drought by setting up a Mason Marchment tally in the second period. While his offense hasn't been very consistent, Lundkvist has at least stayed in the lineup regularly, sitting out just two of 18 games since the start of January. The 23-year-old has 15 points, 57 shots on net, 29 blocked shots, 25 hits and a plus-9 rating over 42 outings. The downside is that the emergence of Thomas Harley as an all-situations powerhouse has essentially eliminated Lundkvist's chances to play with the man advantage. |

Lundkvist scored a goal on four shots in Sunday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Islanders. - Lundkvist put Dallas ahead 2-1 late in the second period, beating Ilya Sorokin with a slapshot for his second goal and 14th point of the year. While the 23-year-old blueliner has yet to provide consistent production, he'll offer some deep-league upside while Miro Heiskanen (lower body) is out. Lundkvist has averaged 1:43 of power-play time over his last seven games. |

Lundkvist notched an assist and three shots on goal in Friday's 6-3 loss to the Predators. - Lundkvist has six points and 10 shots on net over his last seven outings while going plus-6 in that span. He's seen a few more good looks recently with Miro Heiskanen (lower body) out of the lineup. Lundkvist had lost his everyday role in December, but he should be playing regularly at least until Heiskanen is healthy again. Lundkvist has 13 points, 35 shots on net, 21 hits, 20 blocked shots, 14 PIM and a plus-7 rating over 31 outings in a bottom-four role. |

With Miro Heiskanen (lower body) sidelined, Lundqvist is also seeing time on the second power-play unit, although Thomas Harley has been the biggest beneficiary of Heiskanen's absence. |

After being scratched in nine of the first 12 games in December, Lundkvist has supplied three helpers over his last two outings to gain some traction toward staying in the lineup. The 23-year-old blueliner is at 10 helpers, 28 shots on net, 16 blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 26 contests overall. Joel Hanley is the Stars' extra defensemen currently, though it's possible he and Lundkvist share the last spot in the lineup for a while. |

Lundkvist recorded an assist in Friday's 5-4 overtime win over the Blackhawks. - Lundkvist set up Joe Pavelski's game-tying goal in the second period. The helper was Lundkvist's first point since Nov. 24, but his drought was just five games since he's been a regular healthy scratch lately. He'll need to keep getting involved on offense to avoid Joel Hanley retaking the last spot in the lineup. Lundkvist has disappointed with just eight helpers to go with 25 shots on net, 14 hits, 15 blocked shots, 10 PIM and a plus-2 rating over 25 appearances this season. |

Lundkvist has been scratched for eight of the Stars' 11 games in December. - Lundkvist hasn't played more than two games in a row since the start of the month. He's lost his place to Joel Hanley, who provides better defense and virtually no offense. Lundkvist is also at risk of losing his power-play time in the games that he plays, as Thomas Harley has taken on that duty in his absence. Lundkvist has just seven helpers with 25 shots on net, 14 hits and 14 blocked shots over 24 appearances. |

The 23-year-old could be in line for a larger role if Thomas Harley (upper body) misses time. Lundkvist is at five assists, 17 shots on net, eight blocked shots and a plus-2 rating through 14 appearances while playing in a bottom-four role so far. |

Lundkvist picked up two assists in Thursday's 5-2 win over Columbus. - Lundkvist set up Matt Duchene's go-ahead goal in the second period before adding a second helper on a Tyler Seguin deflection early in the third. It's the first multi-point game of the year for the 23-year-old Lundkvist, who now has four assists through 12 games. He should continue to see time on Dallas' second power-play unit while working with Thomas Harley on the third defensive pairing. |

Lundkvist recorded an assist, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Flames. - Lundkvist opened the season with six straight goose eggs, but he's posted a helper in each of the last two contests. The 23-year-old defenseman also saw a season-low 13:40 of ice time Wednesday, but the Stars have continued to deploy players in a fairly balanced manner this season. The Swede has a plus-4 rating, six shots on goal, seven blocked shots and two PIM to go with his pair of helpers over eight games. |

Lundkvist notched an assist and two PIM in Monday's 5-3 win over the Blue Jackets. - Lundkvist took a minus-1 rating Monday, the first time he's been negative this season. Despite that, he also picked up his first point in seven outings. The 23-year-old has seen time on the third pairing and second power-play unit, but his ice time has trended down from 19:21 in the season opener to 14:21 in Monday's game. Lundkvist appears to have a more well-rounded game so far with a plus-2 rating, five blocked shots and three hits, but the offensive power of Thomas Harley (four points) could eventually lead to a shake-up on the second power-play unit. |

Lundkvist has played in only seven of the Stars' 14 games in March. - Lundkvist's reduced role has come as the playoff race intensifies. The Stars clearly aren't ready to fully trust the 22-year-old in his own zone, leading to more playing time for veteran Joel Hanley while Lundkvist watches from the press box. Lundkvist hasn't helped his cause with zero points and just five shots on goal in March, though he's produced 16 points, 94 shots, 67 blocked shots and a minus-5 rating through 60 outings overall. |

Lundkvist scored a goal on two shots in Monday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Canucks. - Lundkvist's third-period tally was what forced overtime. It also snapped a seven-game point drought for the defenseman, who has struggled to contribute from a third-pairing role lately. He's at six goals, 16 points, 89 shots on net, 57 blocked shots, 45 hits, 26 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 53 contests overall. If the Stars add to their blue line at the trade deadline, Lundkvist's place in the lineup could be at risk. |

Lundkvist scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 3-2 shootout win over the Ducks. - Lundkvist had been a healthy scratch for four of the last five games before the All-Star break. His opening tally at 8:08 of the first period should help the 22-year-old maintain a spot in the lineup over Joel Hanley for a while. As a young blueliner, there have been some ups and downs for Lundkvist in 2022-23, but he's managed five goals, 15 points, 74 shots on net, 49 blocked shots, 42 hits and a minus-6 rating through 45 contests. |

Lundkvist logged an assist and three shots on goal in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Sharks. - Lundkvist earned his 10th assist of the season on Radek Faksa's second-period marker.

Lundkvist logged an assist and two hits in Monday's 4-0 win over the Golden Knights. - Lundkvist ended a three-game point drought when he set up Ryan Suter's insurance goal in the third period. The 22-year-old Lundkvist doesn't have a ton of consistency on offense yet, but he's played well enough to regularly hold a spot in the lineup over Joel Hanley. Lundkvist is up to four goals, nine assists, 66 shots on net, 48 blocked shots, 41 hits, 26 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 42 contests. |

Lundkvist scored a power-play goal on four shots and added two PIM in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Panthers. - Lundkvist had three helpers over his last 12 games since he last scored a goal. The defenseman was able to pot his fourth tally of the season just over halfway through the second period, and it held up as his second game-winner of the campaign. The 22-year-old blueliner has 12 points (three on the power play), 63 shots on net, 43 blocked shots, 38 hits, 26 PIM and a minus-5 rating through 38 contests. He's moved around the Stars' defense at times, but his instincts on offense are strong enough to earn Lundkvist some power-play time, making him a depth option in deeper fantasy formats. |

Lundkvist produced an assist and blocked four shots in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Wild. - Lundkvist had a shot attempt in the third period that Wyatt Johnston tipped in for the go-ahead goal. It was ultimately the game-winner, and it gave Lundkvist two helpers in his last four games. The 22-year-old blueliner is seeing top-pairing usage at even strength, but his power-play time has been inconsistent lately. He's at 11 points (three goals, eight helpers), 56 shots on net, 41 blocked shots, 33 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 34 outings. |

The assist snapped a four-game point drought for Lundkvist. The 22-year-old blueliner will likely continue to have ups and downs on offense, but it appears he's mostly locked down a place in the lineup with time on the second power-play unit. The Swede has 10 points (two on the power play), 53 shots on net, 34 blocked shots, 33 hits, 20 PIM and a minus-3 rating in 31 outings overall. |

The 22-year-old Lundkvist has two goals and two helpers in his last three games, and his 19:23 of ice time Monday was his most since Nov. 13. The blueliner has three goals, six assists, 47 shots on net, 26 blocked shots, 24 hits, 18 PIM and a minus-1 rating through 26 appearances. His role on the second power-play unit could give him some appeal in deeper formats. |

Lundkvist found the back of the net in Dallas' 3-2 overtime victory against Detroit on Saturday. - Lundkvist's goal was the overtime winner. He's up to three goals and eight points in 25 games this season. The 22-year-old was limited to one goal and no assists in 15 contests from Oct. 29-Dec. 6, but Lundkvist has now recorded at least a point in back-to-back games, so perhaps he's turned a corner. |

The two-point effort snapped a six-game dry spell for Lundkvist, who was recently a healthy scratch for three contests. The 22-year-old defenseman has two goals, seven points, 45 shots on net, 25 blocked shots, 23 hits, 18 PIM and a minus-3 rating through 24 appearances, and more outings like this one will likely be enough to keep him from sitting out often. |

Lundkvist was credited with an assist during a 2-0 victory over the Capitals on Thursday. - Lundkvist, one of the franchise's top defensive prospects, appears to be earning more trust from the Stars' coaching staff. The 2018 first-round draft pick earned 19:31 of ice time Thursday. On Tuesday, he garnered a season-high 22:04. With three assists during his past five games, Lundkvist is adding offense to his game with Ryan Suter as his top-pairing partner. |

The Swedish defenseman has added eight shots on net, eight blocked shots and a plus-2 rating while seeing third-pairing minutes and time on the second power-play unit.

He looks like a sneaky depth add for fantasy managers in deep formats. |

Lundkvist registered a power-play assist in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Predators. - Lundkvist made the Stars' Opening Night roster after he was traded from the Rangers in September. The 22-year-old logged four points in 25 games last season, but he should be able to take on a slightly larger role with his new team. The Swede posted 15:28 of ice time in a bottom-four role, though his presence on the second power-play unit is encouraging for his offense. He should have no trouble outplaying Joel Hanley to maintain a place in the lineup. |

The 22-year-old tallied four points in 25 NHL games and 15 points in 34 appearances with AHL Hartford. Selected in the first round of the 2018 NHL Entry Draft, Lundkvist will get a fresh start in Dallas where he should slide right into a top-four role and compete for some power-play time. |

The Swedish rookie is seeing sheltered minutes on the third pairing and skated only 13 minutes in this one, but Lundkvist posted double-digit goal totals in each of his last two seasons in the Swedish Hockey League before making his way stateside. Lundkvist should eventually add more offense to his game, but the 21-year-old is currently focused on learning the ropes in the NHL, which explains his meager three points through 16 games. |
