Casey DeSmith Slated to Start in Goal Against Nashville

Casey DeSmith will defend the road net against Nashville on Saturday, taking the second half of Dallas' back-to-back after Jake Oettinger played in Friday's 4-0 loss to St. Louis. The 35-year-old netminder looks to build on a solid 2025-26 campaign where he posted a 15-8-6 record, a 2.43 GAA, and a .907 save percentage across 30 regular-season appearances for the Stars.
