Stars and Golden Knights reveal starting lineups for Game 1

The Stars and Golden Knights are gearing up for an intense showdown in Game 1 of their first-round series on Monday. Both head coaches have revealed their lineups for the highly anticipated matchup.

Stars coach Pete DeBoer announced that Tyler Seguin will be returning to the lineup after sitting out Game 82, pushing Evgenii Dadonov down to the fourth line. Craig Smith will be a healthy scratch to accommodate Dadonov’s return. Dadonov, who recently recovered from a lower-body fracture, is expected to bring his playoff experience and impact to the team.

On the other side, Golden Knights coach Bruce Cassidy disclosed that Logan Thompson will be making his playoff debut in goal, while key players like Mark Stone, William Carrier, and Alex Pietrangelo will be back in action after missing extended time due to injuries.

Despite facing a revamped Golden Knights lineup, the Stars remain focused on their own game plan. Defenseman Chris Tanev emphasized the importance of sticking to their strengths and creating good habits on the ice.

With both teams fielding their best players for Game 1, fans can expect a thrilling and competitive match. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting playoff series.
