Radulov (illness) will play in Thursday's season opener versus the Rangers, Dan Rosen of NHL.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Radulov will skate on the Stars' top line and second power-play unit Thursday. The 35-year-old winger was limited to just 11 games last season due to a core muscle injury, but he was highly productive over that span, racking up four goals, 12 points and 25 shots on net.

Radulov is dealing with a non-COVID-19 illness that could sideline him versus the Rangers on Thursday, Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Radulov's potential absence, along with that of Jason Robertson (upper body) and Blake Comeau (upper body), may force the Stars to utilize 11 forwards and seven defensemen against New York. Joel Kiviranta is poised to take on Radulov's top-six role if Radulov is unable to suit up Thursday.

Radulov (abdomen) was on the ice for Thursday's practice, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Radulov underwent core muscle surgery in April, but he's expected to be fully healthy for 2021-22. He's taken a step in the right direction by skating with Tyler Seguin and Joel Kiviranta at Thursday's first on-ice practice session. If Radulov is ready to go for Opening Night, he'll likely begin in a middle-six role with some power-play time, which gives him some appeal as a bounce-back candidate in fantasy.

Radulov will undergo core muscle surgery and miss the remainder of the season.
EDGE Analysis
Radulov was limited to just 11 games this campaign due to his nagging core muscle injury, but he was highly productive over that span, racking up four goals and 12 points. Radulov is expected to be fully healthy ahead of the 2021-22 season, but he'll be 35 years old at that point, and it remains to be seen if he'll be able to return to form following his surgery.

Radulov is set to meet with a specialist to determine whether his lower-body injury will require surgery, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
If Radulov is forced to undergo surgery, his season will be over, but there's a chance the specialist will let the 34-year-old winger know he won't risk any further damage by trying to play through his lower-body issue. Another update on Radulov, who's picked up an impressive 12 points in 11 games when able to play this year, should be released sometime soon.

Radulov (lower body) is expected to skate with the Stars' taxi squad Saturday, per Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News.
EDGE Analysis
Radulov hasn't played since March 18 due to a lower-body injury. Getting back on the ice with the taxi squad is clearly a step in the right direction for the veteran winger, but he still remains without a timetable for his return to game action. Radulov has been limited to 11 games this campaign due to various injuries, though he has put up a strong 12 points in that limited action.

Radulov (lower body) isn't traveling with the Stars for the team's current six-game road trip, Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Radulov could take a private plane to join Dallas at some point during the team's lengthy road trip, but at this point it appears more likely than not the veteran winger will miss the Stars' next six contests at a minimum. Radulov, who's picked up 12 points in 11 games this season, has been sidelined since March 19 with a lower-body injury.

Radulov (lower body) isn't expected to play in Sunday's game versus the Panthers, Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Radulov is slated to miss a sixth straight game. He skated during Sunday's morning practice, so he's not expected to be out much longer. Nevertheless, this injury could linger and cause him to miss a few more games down the stretch. Radulov's next opportunity to play is Tuesday against the Predators.

Radulov (lower body) won't play Saturday against Florida, but he could be an option for Sunday's rematch with the Panthers, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Radulov will miss a fifth straight game Saturday, but he's clearly on the verge of returning. The veteran winger has been plagued by injuries this season, but he's been highly productive when healthy, having picked up 12 points through 11 contests.

Radulov (lower body) was placed on injured reserve Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Radulov was already ruled out for Thursday's game against the Lightning, so this move simply clears up a roster spot. The 34-year-old is available to play Saturday against the Panthers, though he'll likely be at least a game-time decision. Through 11 games this year, Radulov has recorded 12 points and 25 shots on net.
