FRISCO -- The Stars will try again to jump-start enigmatic winger Val Nichushkin.
Coach Jim Montgomery said Nichushkin will return to the lineup after a three-game absence Tuesday night at Florida. He will replace Denis Gurianov and will play right wing on a line with center Radek Faksa and Mattias Janmark on the left side.
"Val will get a chance to assert himself in the lineup again," Montgomery said.
Nichushkin, who returned to the Stars this season after two years in Russia, has not come close to the expectations for a player taken with the 10th overall pick in the 2013 draft.
