Stars’ Mavrik Bourque enters Game 6 lineup
Dallas Stars head coach Peter DeBoer injected some youth into his lineup for Sunday's must-win Game 6 against the Edmonton Oilers.
Forward Mavrik Bourque entered the lineup for Ty Dellandrea, with DeBoer citing the former's "offensive potential" as the reason for the swap, per The Athletic's Daniel Nugent-Bowman.
"I feel excited," Bourque said, according to The Athletic's Mark Lazerus. "I've been waiting for that for a while. My game's ready, I'm ready to go."
Bourque has one game of NHL experience - his April 6 debut against the Chicago Blackhawks. He registered two shots on goal in just under 11 minutes of ice time.
The 22-year-old was voted AHL MVP in April after leading the league with 77 points (26 goals, 51 assists) in 71 games with the Texas Stars. He added 11 points in seven contests before his team was eliminated from the Calder Cup playoffs.
Dallas selected Bourque with the 30th overall pick in the 2020 NHL Draft.
