In case you hadn't noticed, the Texas Stars are hurting for depth at forward.
With the Dallas Stars injury woes, Texas is losing players at the top of their roster like L'Esperance and Gurianov. Even though Gurianov is back, it doesn't seem like you can count on him to be here for very long at any point. Texas's own injuries and illnesses are also putting holes in the lineup. Sam Laberge is still out with an upper body injury. Travis Morin missed last night's game with illness, and defenseman Shane Hanna popped in at forward for the second time this week.
