Stars' Sam Steel: Three helpers against Panthers
Steel notched three assists, two on the power play, in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to Florida.
The 27-year-old center came into the game with just two points, a goal and an assist, through 11 games, but Steel erupted for his first three-point performance since 2018-19, the season in which he made his NHL debut with the Ducks. He's getting a look on the second line and second power-play unit while Matt Duchene (upper body) and Roope Hintz (undisclosed) are unavailable. Steel could have some fantasy appeal in the short term while he fills that role.

Stars' Sam Steel: Nets power-play marker
Steel scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Hurricanes.
Steel's goal at 5:41 of the second period tied the game at 2-2. The 27-year-old has been listed on the top line at even strength, and the usage has backed that up with more than 18 minutes of ice time in three of his last four contests. The offense hasn't followed him yet -- he has just two points and eight shots on net over eight games this season. He's added nine hits, five blocked shots and a minus-2 rating. Steel is likely better suited to middle-six minutes, but he's a versatile forward who will do whatever is most beneficial to the team.

Stars' Sam Steel: Garners helper Wednesday
Steel recorded an assist, two hits, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Oilers in Game 1.
Steel took a shot that got redirected in by Tyler Seguin late in the third period to stretch the Stars' lead to 5-3. After a quiet first round, Steel had four points over six games in the second round versus the Jets. He's now at one goal, six assists, seven shots on net, 22 hits, 10 blocked shots, 14 PIM and a plus-1 rating over 14 playoff contests. His versatility and defensive work will keep him in the lineup, even if he's stuck in a bottom-six role most of the time.

Stars' Sam Steel: Scores goal in win
Steel scored a goal in Saturday's 2-1 overtime win over the Jets in Game 6.
Steel's tally at 11:12 of the second period tied the game at 1-1. The fourth-liner was more impactful in the second round than he was versus the Avalanche in the opening round of the playoffs. This was Steel's first goal this postseason, and he's added five assists, including three over six games against the Jets. The center has added six shots on net, 20 hits, eight blocked shots, 14 PIM and a minus-1 rating over 13 playoff outings.

Stars' Sam Steel: Chips in two helpers Sunday
Steel recorded two even-strength assists in Sunday's 5-2 win over Winnipeg in Game 3.
Steel has been a valuable depth contributor in the postseason -- he has five assists over 10 games. That kind of production for a fourth-line player goes a long way for a team with Stanley Cup aspirations, as it allows head coach Pete DeBoer to roll all four lines. Steel has added 16 hits and 12 PIM while managing 13:40 of ice time in the 2025 Stanley Cup Playoffs. Game 4 will take place in Dallas on Tuesday.

Stars' Sam Steel: Pockets helper in Game 1
Steel provided an assist, five hits and a plus-2 rating in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Jets in Game 1.
Steel snapped a five-game point drought with the helper. The 27-year-old is filling a bottom-six role this postseason, though he's strong defensively and can earn extra shifts when the Stars need to hold a lead. He's contributed three assists, three shots on net, 14 hits, three blocked shots, 12 PIM and a plus-1 rating over eight playoff appearances.

Stars' Sam Steel: Supplies two assists
Steel notched two assists and three hits in Monday's 4-3 overtime win over the Avalanche in Game 2.
The Stars leaned on their depth to even the series at one game apiece, and Steel was a big part of it. He set up goals by Thomas Harley and Colin Blackwell, with the latter's tally coming at 17:46 of overtime. This was Steel's first multi-point effort since he had a goal and an assist versus the Kings on Feb. 28. The center racked up 25 points, 89 shots on net, 60 hits and a minus-6 rating over 79 regular-season outings while playing primarily on the fourth line.

Stars' Sam Steel: Records shorthanded helper
Steel logged a shorthanded assist in Saturday's 5-3 loss to Utah.
Steel snapped a five-game point drought when he helped out on a Brendan Smith tally in the second period. The 27-year-old Steel has held steady in a bottom-six role for the Stars for much of the season. He's now at 24 points in 77 contests, exactly matching his offensive output from 2023-24. Steel has earned two of his points while shorthanded this season, and he's added 88 shots on net, 59 hits, 25 blocked shots, 31 PIM and a minus-4 rating.

Stars' Sam Steel: Ready to return
Steel (undisclosed) is good to play Thursday versus Nashville, per Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine.
Steel missed Monday's 3-1 win over Seattle due to the injury. He has six goals and 23 points in 71 appearances in 2024-25. Steel's return coincides with Jamie Benn (undisclosed) exiting the lineup.

Stars' Sam Steel: Dealing with undisclosed injury
Steel will be out of action against the Kraken on Monday due to an undisclosed injury, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.
Steel is mired in a 14-game goal drought dating back to Feb. 28 versus the Kings. During his slump, the 27-year-old forward chipped in just three assists to go with eight shots, nine hits and five blocked shots while averaging 12:54 of ice time. With Steel out of the lineup, Colin Blackwell will step back into the lineup in a fourth-line role.

Stars' Sam Steel: Records helper Saturday
Steel provided an assist in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Kraken.
The Stars mixed and matched lines with an 11-forward, seven-defensemen lineup. That led to Steel drawing an assist on Jason Robertson's game-tying goal at 11:50 of the first period. The 27-year-old Steel has three assists over his last six contests and looks to have a fair amount of job security in a fourth-line role -- he's been out of the lineup just twice all season. He's up to 23 points, which is one shy of last year's total, and he's added 83 shots on net, 55 hits and a minus-3 rating across 71 appearances in 2024-25.

Stars' Sam Steel: Gets on scoresheet with assist
Steel logged an assist and two shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 shootout loss to the Lightning.
Steel helped out on an Oskar Back tally in the second period. The assist ended Steel's eight-game point drought, though it's encouraging he wasn't scratched during the slump, especially with the depth of the Stars' offense. The 27-year-old center is at 21 points, 80 shots on net, 51 hits and a minus-4 rating over 66 appearances. While Steel will likely play regularly, his fourth-line role is not particularly helpful for fantasy.

Stars' Sam Steel: Goal, assist in win
Steel scored a shorthanded goal, added an assist and went plus-2 in Friday's 6-2 win over the Kings.
Steel earned his first multi-point effort since Nov. 7 in this contest. The 27-year-old helped out on a Logan Stankoven goal just after a power play expired in the first period, and he added his shortie in the final frame. Steel reached the 20-point mark for the fifth time in his career (six goals, 14 assists), and he's also scored at least one shorthanded goal in three straight seasons. He's added 75 shots on net, 46 hits and an even plus-minus rating through 57 appearances in 2024-25.

Stars' Sam Steel: Opens scoring in win
Steel scored a goal on four shots in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Islanders.
Steel tallied just 2:10 into the game as the Stars' fourth line made an early impact. The 27-year-old signed a two-year contract extension Feb. 14, so he's cemented himself as a key part of the forward depth in Dallas. He's also enjoying a pretty steady year with five goals, 18 points, 71 shots on net, 46 hits and a minus-2 rating through 55 appearances. Steel should get to the 20-point mark for the fifth time in his career, but he may struggle to challenge his personal best of 28 points from the 2022-23 campaign.

Stars' Sam Steel: Inks two-year extension
Steel signed a two-year, $4.2 million contract extension with Dallas on Friday,
The two-way center has four goals and 13 assists across 53 appearances this season. Steel was a healthy scratch Saturday versus San Jose and has only three assists in his last 21 games.

Stars' Sam Steel: Notches assist Tuesday
Steel logged an assist and two PIM in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Ducks.
Steel ended a nine-game point drought when he set up Colin Blackwell's tally. Despite the slump, Steel remains in the lineup as a bottom-six forward, though his path to better minutes got more complicated when the Stars traded for Mikael Granlund and activated Mason Marchment from injured reserve over the weekend. Steel has a respectable 16 points, 64 shots on net, 46 hits, 22 PIM and a minus-2 rating over 52 outings this season and will need to stay sharp to avoid being an occasional healthy scratch.
