Benn produced a power-play assist in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
The play started with Miro Heiskanen saving a near-certain empty-net goal from the Hurricanes. Three passes later, Benn set up Joe Pavelski for the game-tying goal. The 31-year-old Benn has seven points, 20 shots on net and a plus-3 rating through eight games this season. The helper Saturday was Benn's first power-play point of the year.

Benn scored a goal on three shots Thursday in a 4-3 loss to Columbus.
EDGE Analysis
A loose puck found its way to Benn all alone in front midway through the third period, and he beat Joonas Korpisalo for his third goal in as many games. The Dallas captain was held without a point in his season debut but has rattled off six points in his three games since. Benn saw his production take a dip in 2019-20 but with his fast start to the season, he should probably be owned in all formats.

Benn scored a goal and added two assists in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
The Jackets had no answer for the Stars' top line, as Benn, Joe Pavelski and Alexander Radulov combined for four goals and nine points on the night. Benn has been brilliant since his return to action from a lower-body injury, racking up two goals and five points in the last two games.

Benn scored a goal and an assist in Sunday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
After missing three straight games due to a lower-body issue, Benn looked very good in his return to the ice. The 31-year-old's first goal of the season gave the Stars a 3-2 lead midway through the third period, but Benn couldn't convert his second chance to play hero, as he got shut down by James Reimer in the final round of the shootout. Benn has seen his numbers decline each of the last two seasons, but he's still a key part of the Dallas attack.

Benn (lower body) was activated from injured reserve and will play in Sunday's game against the Hurricanes.
EDGE Analysis
Benn has been considered a game-time call for each of the last three games, but he's finally returning to action Sunday. The 31-year-old is coming off a down year in which he produced 19 goals and 20 assists over 69 games. He's looking to get back on track this season, and he'll start out on the top line next to Roope Hintz.

Benn (lower body) is a game-time call for Sunday's game against the Hurricanes, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Benn has missed the past four games due to the lower-body issue, but appears closing in on a return. The 31-year-old will still need to be activated from injured reserve, but the team could do so ahead of the game. Tanner Kero would likely exit the lineup upon Benn's return.

Head coach Rick Bowness is "hopeful" Benn (lower body) will be ready to return Sunday versus the Hurricanes, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Benn has missed four games with the injury sustained during the Stars' season opener versus the Predators. If Benn is activated from injured reserve prior to Sunday's contest, that would be a good sign he's ready to play. Tanner Kero would likely exit the lineup upon Benn's return.

Benn (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Saturday's clash with Carolina, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Benn's status for Saturday's contest likely won't be determined until the Stars take the ice for pregame warmups, so virtual managers hoping to deploy him in their daily lineups should plan accordingly. The 31-year-old forward has missed Dallas' last three games with a lower-body injury.
