Bourque scored a goal on three shots in Tuesday's 6-5 overtime loss to the Canucks.
Bourque's tally put the Stars ahead 4-2 late in the third period. They added an empty-netter afterwards, but the Canucks pulled off a miracle with three goals in the final minute of regulation before taking the win in overtime. Bourque snapped an eight-game goal drought, a span in which he had three assists and was scratched three times. The 23-year-old has mostly settled into a middle-six role, but his lack of power-play time isn't helping his cause for more offense. Bourque is at 11 goals, 14 assists, 75 shots on net, 42 hits, 34 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating across 69 outings.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Registers assist in win
Rotowire
Bourque notched an assist and two shots on goal in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Kraken.
Bourque has three points over his last five outings, but he's also been scratched three times in that span. It's a positive sign he stayed in the lineup Saturday even with the Stars switching to 11 forwards and seven defensemen -- Oskar Back and Colin Blackwell were scratched for this game. Bourque is up to 23 points, 69 shots on net, 38 hits, 30 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating over 64 appearances. The future is bright for the Quebec native, but his limited role on a contending team doesn't make him a strong fantasy option for the rest of 2024-25.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Tallies goal Sunday
Rotowire
Bourque scored a goal and dished out four hits in Sunday's 4-3 loss in overtime against Colorado.
Bourque's tally was the first of two goals Dallas would score in a 20-second span in the third period. After Sunday's goal, the 23-year-old forward eclipsed the 10-goal threshold on the season and has 21 points overall in 60 games. His potential in fantasy is limited with his role on the Stars' fourth line, but his goal in a game against a division rival shows a glimpse of what Bourque could become in the NHL.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Puts up power-play helper in win
Rotowire
Bourque logged a power-play assist and two hits in Sunday's 6-3 win over the Blues.
Bourque's six-game point streak ended Friday versus the Kings, but he wasn't held off the scoresheet in consecutive contests.

He's at nine goals, 20 points (three on the power play), 56 shots on net, 32 hits and a plus-2 rating through 54 appearances this season.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Keeps streak alive Tuesday
Rotowire
Bourque scored a goal in Tuesday's 6-4 loss to the Blue Jackets.
The 23-year-old winger continues to make an impact for the Stars and has recorded at least one point in six games in a row, the longest streak of his young NHL career. Bourque has yet to post a multi-point game this season, but the winger should remain in the top line as long as he continues to find ways to produce. Bourque has nine goals and 10 assists in 52 regular-season contests in 2024-25.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Deposits goal
Rotowire
Bourque scored a goal in Friday's 5-4 shootout loss to the Kings.
Bourque missed one game due to a facial injury after being struck in the face with a puck last Sunday versus the Blue Jackets. The 23-year-old has chipped in decent depth scoring lately, earning five goals and three assists over his last 15 contests. He's playing in a fourth-line role for now, but he may get more ice time if he remains consistent on offense. For the season, the Quebec native has 15 points, 53 shots on net, 28 hits and an even plus-minus rating across 48 appearances.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Picks up helper in win
Rotowire
Bourque logged an assist and two blocked shots in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Blue Jackets.
Bourque helped out on Mason Marchment's first-period tally. Bourque was still listed on the second line, even with Marchment back from injury and Mikael Granlund brought in via trade, though the 23-year-old was limited to 12:18 of ice time Sunday. He's been moderately steady on offense with seven points over his last 14 outings, but it's expected his power-play time will be reduced. Bourque has 14 points, 52 shots on net, 27 hits, 24 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 47 contests. He struggled in a smaller role early in the season, and he could be scratched if his performance slips again.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Provides helper Monday
Rotowire
Bourque notched an assist, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Monday's 3-1 win over the Capitals.
Bourque's 13:48 of ice time Monday was his most in a game since Nov. 18. The 22-year-old remains on the fourth line, but with the Stars carrying just 12 forwards currently, his place in the lineup is secure. Bourque has a modest six points with 19 shots on net, 13 blocks and a plus-2 rating over 25 appearances in 2024-25.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Finds twine in loss
Rotowire
Bourque scored a goal on two shots and added two PIM in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Golden Knights.
The Stars' fourth line combined for the team's first goal, scored by Bourque at 6:39 of the second period. It was his first tally since Nov. 1, and he had just two helpers over the 14 games in between goals. Bourque's first full NHL campaign hasn't lived up to the hype, as he has five points, 16 shots on net and a plus-2 rating through 21 outings while seeing mostly bottom-six minutes.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Puts up helper in loss
Rotowire
Bourque recorded an assist and a team-high five shots on goal in Monday's 4-2 loss to the Ducks.
Bourque has been scratched a couple of times this season, though that's just part of the process for a rookie that's trying to find his game at the NHL level. The 22-year-old has been limited to three points, 12 shots on net and a minus-1 rating while averaging 11:07 of ice time over 12 contests. Bourque's offense is likely to be limited in a fourth-line role with minimal power-play time, so his fantasy value is lower in redraft leagues than it is in dynasty.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Earns first NHL assist
Rotowire
Bourque provided an assist in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Sabres.
Bourque was sidelined by an undisclosed injury for the first week of the campaign, which may explain his slow start. The 22-year-old has one assist, one shot on net and four blocked shots over four contests so far, and he began Tuesday's game in a fourth-line role. If Bourque's struggles continue, he may return to AHL Texas, where he was the AHL MVP in 2023-24 after a 26-goal, 77-point campaign, though any such demotion would likely be to help him rebuild confidence.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Playing Tuesday
Rotowire
Bourque (undisclosed) will be in action against San Jose on Tuesday, Brian Rea of Bally Sports Southwest reports.
Bourque will make his season debut after missing the opening three games of the 2024-25 campaign due to his undisclosed injury. The 22-year-old Quebec native should slide into a third-line center role, which will likely see Wyatt Johnston move to the wing while Jamie Benn will be dropped from the lineup. With just one game of NHL experience, Bourque is far from a lock to play on a nightly basis and could periodically serve as a healthy scratch or spend some time in the minors.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Lands on injured non-roster
Rotowire
Bourque (undisclosed) was placed on the injured non-roster list Monday, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.
Bourque has been dealing with a minor injury since late September, and even though he returned to practice last week, he'll be forced to miss the start of the regular season. The 22-year-old tallied 77 points over 71 appearances with AHL Texas last year en route to AHL MVP honors, and he could have a middle-six role for Dallas once he's healthy.

Stars' Mavrik Bourque: Brought up from minors
Rotowire
Bourque was called up from AHL Texas on Wednesday.
Bourque's promotion comes after AHL Texas was eliminated from the Calder Cup playoffs. The 22-year-old center racked up 26 goals and 51 helpers in 71 AHL regular-season contests before adding another 11 points in seven postseason games with Texas. Even if Bourque doesn't see much time in the Stanley Cup playoffs, he should be in the mix for a roster spot heading into the 2024-25 campaign given his offensive upside.
