Status report
Zacha will return after missing a 4-1 win at the Los Angeles Kings on Saturday because of an upper-body injury. ... Zadorov will play after being a healthy scratch against Los Angeles. ... Lindell is out at least a week after the defenseman blocked a shot during a 4-0 win at the Chicago Blackhawks on Saturday. ... Capobianco will enter the lineup. ... Perron begun practicing with the Stars on Monday after signing with Dallas on Friday, but the forward isn't likely to play until he has a few more practices with the team, coach Glen Gulutzan said.
