Oh, I was thinking about the last time I saw you

• The Stars face the Pittsburgh Penguins for the second and final time this season on Saturday afternoon at American Airlines Center.
• The Stars bested the Penguins in the season opener, a 2-1 shootout victory at PPG Paints Arena on Oct. 19, 2021.
• Forward Michael Raffl posted the Stars' lone goal in regulation in their October win, while forward Alexander Radulov scored the game-deciding goal in the shootout. Radulov has seven points (four goals, three assists) in 12 games against Pittsburgh, posting three points (one goal, two assists) in five games on home ice.
• Defenseman Miro Heiskanen tallied an assist in the Stars' most recent game against the Penguins and now has two assists in his past three games against the Pens.
• Forward Tyler Seguin leads the Stars with nine goals and 15 points in 26 career games against the Penguins.

My competitive nature keeps me keeping score

• Captain Jamie Benn centered Seguin and Denis Gurianov in the Stars' last three outings. In the last two games, the trio has contributed six of the Stars' 12 goals.
• Gurianov recorded a power-play goal Thursday night against the Panthers, his third goal with the man advantage this season. He added two assists and now has five points (one goal, four assists) in his past two games.
• Benn recorded a goal and an assist in each of his past two games, totaling four points. He shares fourth on the Stars with nine goals and ranks fifth with 17 points.
• Seguin is riding a two-game goal streak for the third time this season. Seguin shares fourth on the Stars with nine goals this season with five of them coming on home ice.

You're a million in my mind

• Forward Jason Robertson lit the lamp on Thursday night against the Panthers at American Airlines Center.
• He has points in five consecutive games (three goals, three assists), marking his third streak of points in four or more consecutive games this season, having been held off the score sheet in only six of his 24 contests.
• At American Airlines Center, he has points in nine consecutive games on home ice (five goals, seven assists), tied for the longest active home point streak in the NHL (other: Tampa Bay's Steven Stamkos).
• He became the fourth player in franchise history to record a home point streak of 9+ games in consecutive seasons, joining Loui Eriksson (10 GP in 2009-10 and 9 GP in 2010-11), Neal Broten (11 GP in 1981-82 and 13 GP in 1982-83) and Dino Ciccarelli (11 GP in 1981-82 and 10 GP in 1982-83).
• The Arcadia, Calif. native has 17 points in his past 14 games (eight goals, nine assists), including a season-long seven-game point streak (five goals, six assists) from Nov. 23-Dec. 8.
• Within that span, Robertson recorded three consecutive multi-point games for the first time in his career. He leads the team with seven multi-point performances this season.
• Robertson ranks second on the Stars in points (26), tied for second in assists (15) and third in goals (11).
• He also leads Dallas with a +8 rating and shares second in power-play tallies (2).
