Benn notched two assists and two shots on goal in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
Benn's first helper came on a Jason Robertson power-play goal early in the third period, and he set up Wyatt Johnston's shorthanded tally later in the frame. Prior to Sunday, Benn was stuck in a four-game point drought. The 34-year-old will likely struggle to replicate last year's 78-point effort, but he's up to 11 points (two on the power play, two shorthanded) with 21 shots on net, 11 hits, 10 blocked shots, nine PIM and a plus-4 rating through 14 outings this season.

Benn posted a power-play assist, three shots on goal and two hits in Thursday's 4-3 win over the Oilers.
EDGE Analysis
Benn is playing well with a goal and four helpers over his last three games. The 34-year-old forward helped out on the first of Roope Hintz's two goals in the game. Benn is up to three tallies, six assists, 18 shots on net, seven hits, seven blocked shots and a plus-3 rating through nine contests. The Stars' offense remains deep, allowing Benn to be a positive contributor in a middle-six role. His helper Thursday was his first power-play point of the campaign.

Benn scored a shorthanded goal and added an even-strength assist in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Flames.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran forward got Dallas on the board in the final minute of the first period on a great hustle play by Roope Hintz, who beat everyone to the puck after the Stars had cleared it the length of the ice and found Benn wide open in front of Jacob Markstrom. Benn has three multi-point performances in the last five games, and on the season the 34-year-old is showing he still has plenty left in the tank, scoring three goals and eight points in eight contests. Notably, none of that production has come with the man advantage after Benn racked up 13 goals and 30 points on the power play in 2022-23.

Benn provided a pair of assists in Monday's 5-3 win over the Blue Jackets.
EDGE Analysis
Benn's line with Wyatt Johnston and Evgenii Dadonov combined on the Stars' last two goals to help the team pull away with the win. This was Benn's second multi-point effort of the season. The 34-year-old is at two goals, four helpers, a plus-1 rating, 12 shots on net, five hits and five blocked shots through seven contests. He's a fixture in the middle-six, and while he may not flirt with a point-per-game pace all season, it appears he can still be useful in fantasy.

Benn recorded an assist and three shots on goal in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Penguins.
EDGE Analysis
Concerns of Benn enduring a down campaign after last year's 78-point effort have been quieted, as the 34-year-old has two goals and two helpers through five contests. He set up Wyatt Johnston's insurance tally in the third period Tuesday. Benn has added nine shots on net, five blocked shots, three hits, five PIM and a plus-1 rating while playing in a middle-six role to begin the season.

Benn lit the lamp and earned an assist in Saturday's 5-4 overtime win over the Flyers.
EDGE Analysis
Benn has yet to convert on the man advantage, but he banked 30 points in that key scenario last season, and it's the overall power-play units from Dallas that need a jump start. There's plenty of time to turn things around, but the Stars rank 22nd in the league with a 14.3 power-play percentage on the young season, and their percentage of high-danger chances (5.3) is significantly lower than the league average of 8.1. These team trends should be taken into account as you make lineup decisions involving Benn, who has been the Stars' captain since 2013.

Benn scored a goal on four shots, helping the Stars to a 2-1 shootout victory over the Blues on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Benn opened the scoring Thursday, roofing a shot in tight to give the Stars a 1-0 lead. He would also record a hit and a plus-1 rating in his 17:04 TOI. Coming off a bounce-back season last year where he recorded 33 goals and 78 points in 82 games, the captain is expected to play a major role within the Stars' top-nine forward core and first power-play unit.

Benn is eligible to play in Game 6 against the Golden Knights on Monday after completing his two-game suspension for cross-checking Vegas' Mark Stone on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Dallas won two consecutive contests without Benn in the lineup. He has racked up eight assists, 11 points, 36 shots on net, 30 hits and 51 PIM in 16 games this postseason. Benn's return could make Fredrik Olofsson a healthy scratch for Monday's must-win matchup.
