Status report
The Stars changed all their forward lines except the top unit in an attempt to balance things out defensively, coach Rick Bowness said. Studenic moved up from the fourth line to the second, Gurianov down one line and Glendening down a line and from right wing to center. ... Kiviranta returns after missing five games, three with an illness. ... Peterson, a center, will be a healthy scratch for the first time in five games. ... Boeser returns after missing five games with an upper-body injury. ... Highmore returns after missing nine games with an upper-body injury.
