Bishop (upper body) won't dress for Saturday's road game against the Hurricanes, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bishop reportedly had a 50-50 chance of rocking the road cage in Saturday's contest, but the Stars will leave him on injured reserve for the time being. This also means that Anton Khudobin will continue serving as the interim No. 1 goalie for Dallas, with Landon Bow and his two games' worth of NHL experience playing second fiddle.

Bishop (upper body) is 50/50 to suit up for Saturday's clash with Carolina, per Sean Shapiro of The Athletic.

EDGE Analysis

Bishop won't dress against the Lightning on Thursday, but might be an option to serve as the backup versus the Canes. Once given the green light to play, the netminder figures to carry the bulk of the load the rest of the way, though the club won't want to overwork him heading into the postseason.

Bishop (upper body) will miss out on Thursday's road tilt in Tampa, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The gargantuan goaltender was on the ice for Wednesday's practice, but it appears that the Stars want to ease Bishop back into action. Bishop's next chance to return to the lineup will be Saturday against Carolina.

Bishop (upper body) was on the ice for an optional skate Tuesday morning, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Stars coach Jim Montgomery said the team is attempting to get Bishop comfortable making "explosive saves." Dallas' top netminder missed the last two contests, resulting in a pair of 3-2 road losses for primary backup Anton Khudobin. Bishop (19-12-2) remains on injured reserve and it's safe to deduce that he won't be available for Tuesday's game against the Panthers.

Bishop (upper body) will miss Tuesday's road game against the Panthers, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bishop will miss his third straight game, still slowed by an upper-body injury suffered back on Feb. 4. The Stars' netminder remains on injured reserve but is eligible to come off it whenever he's deemed healthy enough to return to game action. Bishop's next chance at a return now comes Thursday in Tampa Bay.

The Stars plan to place Bishop (undisclosed) on injured reserve, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

According to Mark Stepneski of the Stars' official site, Bishop was originally expected to be available for Saturday's matchup with Arizona, so this news comes as a bit of a surprise. The 32-year-old netminder will be eligible to be activated ahead of Tuesday's game against the Panthers, but at this point there's no telling if he'll be ready for that contest. Anton Khudobin will continue to shoulder the load in goal until Bishop is cleared to return.

Bishop (undisclosed) is expected to be available against the Yotes on Saturday, Mark Stepneski of the Stars' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bishop won't dress versus the Preds on Thursday, as Anton Khudobin will get the starting nod while emergency call-up Landon Bow sits in reserve. The Stars haven't officially named a starter for Saturday's matchup, but at a minimum, it appears Bishop will be healthy enough to serve as the backup if needed.

Bishop has not practiced the last two days after tweaking something Monday against the Coyotes, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

If Bishop missing practice doesn't set off alarm bells, the Stars recalling Landon Bow from AHL Texas should. The veteran netminder could be headed for a night off Thursday, with Anton Khudobin already confirmed as the starting netminder to kick off Dallas' five-game road trip. If that's the case, Bishop's next opportunity to return would arrive Saturday against the Coyotes.

Bishop steered away 39 of 43 shots in Monday's win over the Coyotes.

EDGE Analysis

The Coyotes aren't a flashy offense but Bishop faced the most shots since Dec. 7 against the Sharks. He now has four straight wins under his belt and 19 on the season. Bishop maintains a .925 save percentage as well, which is good for seventh in the league.

Bishop is expected to defend the cage at home versus Arizona on Monday, Mark Stepneski of the Stars' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bishop is riding a three-game winning streak during which he registered one shutout and a 1.00 GAA. The netminder will look to keep rolling against a Yotes squad that is averaging just 2.59 goals (fourth worst in the league).
