The Stars recalled forward Fredrik Olofsson and goaltender Matt Murray from the Texas Stars, the AHL affiliate, on Saturday.

Murray made his debut for the Stars on Thursday vs. the Blackhawks in a 5-2 win. He stopped 19 of 21 shots and became the first Stars rookie goalie to win in his NHL debut on the road since Mike Smith in 2006. In the AHL, Murray is tied for second overall in shutouts and tied for fifth among rookies in wins.

Olofsson’s first appearance with Dallas came on Dec. 27, 2022, and he scored his first goal – a game-winner – on Dec. 31, 2022, vs. San Jose.
