Johns (undisclosed) won't be available for Sunday's Game 4 against the Flames, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johns will miss a third straight game Sunday and at this point there's no telling when he might be ready to return. Taylor Fedun will likely continue to fill in on Dallas' bottom pairing until Johns is given the green light.

Johns (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup against Calgary on Friday for Game 3, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johns will miss his second game due to his undisclosed issue, and Taylor Fedun will continue to slot into his spot on the blue line. In 21 appearances following a year-long stint on injured reserve, Johns has notched two goals, three assists and 66 hits. Given his limited offensive upside, Johns won't offer much in terms of fantasy value even once given the all-clear.

Johns (undisclosed) will not be in the lineup versus Calgary in Thursday's Game 2 clash, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Considering Johns is bogged down in an 11-game pointless streak, most fantasy players may not even notice his absence from the squad. Johns' replacement Taylor Fedun doesn't offer much more in terms of fantasy value, so pursuing other options like Miro Heiskanen would probably be the better play in DFS contests. With the quick turnaround, Johns could also be sidelined for Game 3 on Friday.

Johns (undisclosed) was "unfit to participate" in Wednesday's practice, Bruce LeVine of Dallas Stars Radio reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johns exited Tuesday's Game 1 loss to the Flames with an undisclosed injury, and his subsequent absence from Wednesday's practice leaves him iffy at best for Thursday's Game 2. If he's unable to go, Taylor Fedun will draw into the lineup against Calgary.

Johns was deemed unfit to play and won't return to Tuesday's Game 1 matchup against Calgary.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear what sort of issue Johns is dealing with that forced him to leave the game in the third period, but it's serious enough to force him to miss playoff action. The defenseman left the game with a minus-2 rating to go along with 10:02 of ice time. Expect an update on Johns' health ahead of Thursday's Game 2, but the team will roll with five defensemen for the remainder of Tuesday's clash.

Johns (upper body) will rejoin the lineup for Tuesday's game against Edmonton.

EDGE Analysis

Johns missed the Stars' last three games due to an upper-body issue, but he'll return to a bottom-pairing role against the Oilers. The 27-year-old American has picked up five points while posting a plus-1 rating in 13 games this campaign.

Johns (upper body) is aiming to return for Tuesday's game versus the Oilers, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johns has missed the last three games with an upper-body injury, which wasn't a concussion, but the Stars are optimistic that he'll be ready to go Tuesday. He'll likely bump either Roman Polak or Andrej Sekera from the lineup. Johns has adjusted well to getting back into NHL action after sitting out for over a year with post-traumatic headaches, as he's posted five points and 35 hits over 13 contests.

Johns (upper body) won't play Saturday against St. Louis, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johns will miss a third consecutive game Saturday, but he's still considered day-to-day with his upper-body issue, which suggests he could be ready to return as soon as Tuesday against the Oilers. Another update on the 27-year-old blueliner's status should surface prior to that contest.

Johns (upper body) won't play Thursday against Boston, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johns is considered day-to-day and was able to skate Wednesday, so he shouldn't miss too much time with his upper-body issue. Once he's given the green light, the 27-year-old American will return to a bottom-four role for the Stars.

Johns (upper body) skated Wednesday and is considered day-to-day, Sean Shapiro of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Johns was held out of Tuesday's game versus the Hurricanes due to an upper-body injury, and there were definitely concerns about this issue because the 27-year-old blueliner has a lengthy history of post-traumatic headaches. However, this doesn't appear to be related, as Johns was back on the ice Wednesday and went through a conditioning skate with the team. He should be considered questionable going into Thursday's game against the Bruins.
