Dallas Stars coach Peter DeBoer told reporters his team’s No. 1 defenceman will not play in Game 3 against the Winnipeg Jets on Sunday.

Heiskanen has been out of the lineup since January after having knee surgery. The Stars’ defenceman returned to practice before the start of the playoffs but has been considered day-to-day.

In 50 games before the injury, the Finn racked up five goals and 20 assists.
