Stars’ Jason Robertson week-to-week with lower-body injury

The Dallas Stars have suffered a big injury blow on the eve of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Star winger Jason Robertson was classified as week-to-week, per Stars senior staff writer Mike Heika, after sustaining a lower-body injury in the the team’s regular-season finale on Wednesday.

Robertson collided with Nashville Predators forward Michael McCarron before heading to the bench, wincing in pain. Emma Lingen, the Predators reporter for The Hockey News, reported that Robertson left Bridgestone Arena with a brace on his right knee.

“The purpose of resting people down the stretch was to hopefully avoid injury,” Stars head coach Peter DeBoer told reporters after the game, according to the team’s reporter for NHL.com, Mike Heika. “Unfortunately we didn’t do that with the Roberston injury. So, tough night.”

Robertson had 35 goals and 45 assists for 80 points while playing all 82 games this season.

When asked if there was any hope of Robertson playing against the Avs, DeBoer responded, “If the series goes more than a week, then yeah.”
