Contributes assist in comeback win
Back notched an assist and three blocked shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Avalanche in Game 7.
ANALYSIS
Back helped out on the first of Mikko Rantanen's three goals, which sparked the Stars' third-period comeback. The 25-year-old Back has two assists over six outings in his first taste of playoff action. The fourth-liner has added one shot on net, three hits, four blocked shots and a minus-1 rating. Back was bothered by an oblique injury earlier in the series, but when he feels well enough to play, he appears to be the preferred option for the last spot in the lineup over Mavrik Bourque. Both players could be out of luck once Jason Robertson (knee) is cleared to return.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Expected to begin season in Dallas
Back is expected to begin the 2024-25 regular season with the Stars, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.
ANALYSIS
Back is competing with Kole Lind and Arttu Hyry for spots on the Stars' Opening Night roster, and LeVine speculates that Back and Lind are the favorites to begin the year in the NHL due to their experience playing in North America. Even if Back opens the season on the Stars' roster, he doesn't have any NHL experience and could still spend plenty of time with the AHL club this year.
