Eaves (concussion) will not return to action Friday against the Avalanche, Mike Heika of the Dallas Morning News reports. Eaves skated with the team Wednesday and was viewed as a possible option for the Stars' next game, but that changed when he failed to participate in Thursday's practice. It's not clear if a setback with his head injury contributed to his absence, but at the very least, it looks like his activation from IR will have to wait a few more days.
