Stars Lose Tyler Seguin to Season-Ending ACL Injury
So, here’s what’s going on with the Dallas Stars right now, and it’s definitely not the kind of update fans were hoping for. Tyler Seguin, one of the team’s most trusted and experienced forwards, is now expected to miss the remainder of the season after suffering a torn ACL in his right knee. The news was shared by head coach Glen Gulutzan, and honestly, it landed like a punch to the gut for the entire organization.
The injury happened during Monday night’s matchup against the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden. It was early in the first period when Seguin got tangled up with Rangers defenseman Vladislav Gavrikov. You could see immediately that something wasn’t right — he went down in clear pain, couldn’t get back to his feet, and had to be helped off the ice. For a player who prides himself on pushing through tough situations, that moment alone said a lot.

After further evaluation, the team didn’t receive any positive updates about the condition of his knee. And considering Seguin’s recent injury history, the timing couldn’t be worse. He had already missed nearly all of last season because of hip surgery, only returning in time for the playoffs. This year felt like a fresh start — he had played every game so far, put up 17 points in 27 appearances, and even hit a major career milestone by skating in his 1,000th NHL game back in October.
But now, just as he was rebuilding momentum, another significant injury has taken him out of the lineup.
For the Stars, this isn’t just a loss — it’s a major challenge. The roster has already been stretched thin with injuries, including Matt Duchene, who’s been sidelined for weeks and still isn’t quite ready to return. Gulutzan acknowledged that it’s a tough day for the team, but emphasized that in a season where injuries are piling up across the league, everyone simply has to keep moving forward. Players like Nathan Bastian will need to step into bigger roles, and the rest of the team will have to adjust quickly.
Seguin’s career speaks for itself — more than 1,000 games, over 800 points, and a Stanley Cup ring from his early days with the Boston Bruins. Losing a player like that, both on the ice and in the locker room, affects everything from scoring depth to team morale.
For now, the focus shifts to recovery for Seguin and resilience for the Stars. It’s a long season, but this is one of those moments that tests a team’s ability to adapt, regroup, and push ahead.
