Stars backup goaltender Anton Khudobin will start for Dallas on Monday night against Edmonton, despite Ben Bishop's strong return Saturday in Vancouver from a lower-body injury.
Stars coach Jim Montgomery said the team was still being cautious with Bishop, who missed five games with the injury, and didn't want to push him with a backup playing as well as Khudobin.
"We're not going to take any chances right now," Montgomery said. "Bish is our No. 1. He played great in Vancouver, but with the travel and coming back again, right now we don't want to take any chances.
