Casey DeSmith struggles in loss to Avalanche

by Bruno Mulé | Stars Correspondent | Sun, Jan 19th 2:59pm EST

Casey DeSmith stopped 30 shots in the Stars' 6-3 loss to the Avalanche on Saturday. The netminder has now allowed nine goals over his last two starts, both losses, after a strong stretch where he conceded just six goals across four consecutive wins.

Fantasy Impact:

DeSmith’s recent struggles highlight the Stars’ current skid, but his prior success shows his potential as a solid spot-start option in daily formats. While his fantasy value is tied closely to Dallas regaining form, DeSmith remains a worthwhile backup to monitor for favorable matchups. Fantasy managers should use caution until the Stars stabilize defensively.
