Dadonov posted an assist, three shots on goal and two hits in Thursday's 3-1 loss to the Canadiens.
Dadonov has two goals and five assists over eight outings in January. He's played on the top line at even strength for much of the month due to the ongoing absence of Mason Marchment (face). Dadonov is up to 23 points in 44 contests, matching his output from 51 regular-season outings last season. He's added 77 shots on net, 30 hits and a plus-10 rating in 2024-25.

Rotowire
Dadonov scored a power-play goal and added an assist in Sunday's 3-2 loss to the Senators.
Dadonov has four multi-point efforts over his last nine games. His recent success has been a product of chemistry on the top line with Jason Robertson and Roope Hintz, as all three forwards have turned things around following slow starts. Dadonov is up to 12 goals, 10 helpers, four power-play points, 73 shots on net and a plus-12 rating over 42 appearances this season.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Two points against Rangers
Rotowire
Dadonov scored a power-play goal and added an even-strength assist in Tuesday's 5-4 overtime win over the Rangers.
The veteran winger played a key role in the Stars' comeback from an early 3-0 deficit, scoring the team's second goal late in the first period before helping to set up Jason Robertson for the tying tally in the second frame. Dadonov has taken advantage of his placement on a line with Robertson and Roope Hintz over the last few weeks, and across the last nine games he's produced four goals and nine points -- a huge jump in pace from the 10 points (seven goals, three helpers) he managed over his first 30 appearances this season.

Rotowire
Dadonov scored a goal on four shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Blackhawks.
Dadonov is earning more minutes and making the most of them with three multi-point efforts over the last five games. He joined Jason Robertson and Roope Hintz on the top line Sunday. Dadonov is up to 10 goals, six helpers, 61 shots on net, 22 hits and a plus-9 rating through 35 contests. He's worth a look in fantasy if his promotion into the top six sticks for a while.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Goal, assist in overtime loss
Rotowire
Dadonov scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist and went plus-2 in Friday's 3-2 overtime loss to the Wild.
Dadonov opened the scoring at 9:52 of the first period and then fed Wyatt Johnston for a goal in the second. This was Dadonov's second multi-point effort over the last four games. He's looked at his best alongside Johnston and Jamie Benn, and that line combination may stick together for a while, as the Stars continue to navigate their schedule sans Tyler Seguin (hip). Dadonov is up to nine goals, 13 points, 57 shots on net, 22 hits and a plus-7 rating through 34 appearances.

Rotowire
Dadonov scored a goal on three shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Maple Leafs.
Dadonov ended a six-game slump with his third multi-point effort of the campaign. The 35-year-old winger has often played on the fourth line but moved up alongside Wyatt Johnston and Jamie Benn on the third line for this game. Dadonov is now at eight goals, 12 points, 51 shots on net and a plus-6 rating through 31 appearances, and he may be worth a look in deeper fantasy formats if his promotion sticks.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Nets PP goal Monday
Rotowire
Dadonov scored a power-play goal in Monday's 2-1 win over Utah.
Dadonov broke the deadlock for the Stars roughly seven minutes into the game. Dallas had the man advantage when Dadonov fired a snap shot following setups from Matt Duchene and Miro Heiskanen. This was Dadonov's seventh goal of the season, with two of those coming on the power play. The 35-year-old has 10 points (seven goals, three assists) across 24 games this season.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Right place, right time for goal
Rotowire
Dadonov scored a goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Lightning.
An Ilya Lyubushkin shot deflected in off Dadonov, giving the winger his second goal in as many games. Dadonov has filled a floater role in the Stars' lineup, racking up four goals and a plus-5 rating over his last five contests. For the season, Dadonov is at six goals, three assists, 33 shots on net, 10 hits, 11 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 19 appearances. With the Stars fully healthy up front, he's on the fourth line, so he won't be a goldmine for fantasy.
Dadonov scored an empty-net goal in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Sharks.
Dadonov closed out the scoring for the Stars with 54 seconds left in the third period. The Russian winger has struggled with consistency, posting four goals across his last six appearances but also going pointless three times in that span. His production is trending in the right direction, but the lack of consistency limits his upside in most formats.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Scores penalty shot in win
Rotowire
Dadonov scored two goals in Thursday's 7-2 win over the Bruins.
Dadonov scored his first successful penalty shot of the 2024-25 campaign after he was hooked on a breakaway by Boston defenseman Mason Lohrei in the first period. He doubled his tally in the final seconds of the second period in his first multi-goal game of the campaign. Dadonov has just four goals this season, so he needs to start producing at a better pace to remain relevant in fantasy. Right now, his production just won't cut it in most formats.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Nets power-play goal
Rotowire
Dadonov scored a power-play goal on two shots in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Panthers in Finland.
Dadonov ended up replacing Tyler Seguin (lower body) on the second power-play unit for Saturday's game. The 35-year-old Dadonov has two goals and two assists this season, all of which he's earned over the last five games. He's added 21 shots on net, eight blocked shots, three hits and a plus-2 rating. Dadonov should see middle-six usage at even strength for as long as Seguin is out.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: First goal of season Saturday
Rotowire
Dadonov scored a goal in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Blackhawks.
Dadonov endured a rough start to the season and couldn't register a point in his first six appearances. Even though he's notched three points over his last three outings, with one goal and two assists, fantasy managers shouldn't rely on Dadonov to deliver sustained production in a Dallas offense that has several other offensive weapons who are more likely to deliver results with consistency.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Two helpers in Tuesday's loss
Rotowire
Dadonov picked up two assists in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres.
Both helpers came in the third period as the Stars tried to rally from a 3-0 deficit. Dadonov had gone without a point in his first six appearances of the 2024-25 campaign, and he hadn't had a multi-point performance since Feb. 7 of last season. Without a consistent spot in the top six or on the power play, the 35-year-old isn't likely to build much momentum off the effort.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Deposits goal Thursday
Rotowire
Dadonov scored a goal in Thursday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Blues.
Dadonov has received extra opportunities in preseason since Jason Robertson (foot) has missed the exhibition slate. The 35-year-old Dadonov will likely be in a bottom-six role when the Stars are at full health, though he has the experience necessary to move up the lineup and even fill in on the power play if injuries pile up. Dadonov was limited to 23 points in 51 regular-season outings in 2023-24, and he added seven points in 19 playoff contests.
Dadonov registered an assist and four shots on goal in Thursday's 3-2 double-overtime loss to the Oilers in Game 1.
Dadonov has a goal and three assists over his last five contests. The winger has benefited from taking on a larger role while Roope Hintz (upper body) is out. Dadonov has seven points, 20 shots on net, 15 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating over 14 playoff outings, so even with his recent increased offense, he's still little more than a complementary part of the Stars' attack.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Collects assist in Game 6
Rotowire
Dadonov notched an assist, two shots on goal and four blocked shots in Friday's 2-1 double-overtime win over the Avalanche in Game 6.
Dadonov has turned up the offense with three points and eight shots on net over his last four outings. The winger set up Jamie Benn's game-tying goal early in the third period. Dadonov is up to six points, 16 shots, 14 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 13 playoff appearances. Heading into the Western Conference Finals, the 35-year-old should be expected to remain in a third-line role.

Rotowire
Dadonov scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 5-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 4.
Dadonov tallied midway through the third period to shut down the Avalanche's hopes of a comeback.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Contributes helper in win
Rotowire
Dadonov recorded an assist in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.
Dadonov ended a four-game slump when he set up the first of Tyler Seguin's two goals in the game. With four points and nine shots on net over 10 playoff appearances, Dadonov is doing a decent job at providing depth scoring for the Stars. He remains in a bottom-six role and is unlikely to produce consistent offense.

Stars' Evgenii Dadonov: Scores from thin angle
Rotowire
Dadonov scored a goal in Monday's 4-2 win over the Golden Knights in Game 4.
Dadonov struck late in the first period, scoring from the corner with a shot that banked in off Vegas goalie Logan Thompson. With two points through four playoff outings, Dadonov is offering some depth offense. He's clicked on a veteran line with Joe Pavelski and Tyler Seguin since the Stars had to shuffle their forwards due to injury absences for Mason Marchment (undisclosed) and Radek Faksa (undisclosed). Dadonov has added two shots on net, five hits and three blocked shots in the postseason.
