Latest news
Back (finger) was placed on long-term injured reserve Saturday.
Back is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a broken finger, so moving to LTIR won't impact his return timeline. Before going down, the center had an assist, two PIM, four shots on net, five hits and nine blocked shots over seven outings this season. In Back's absence, Colin Blackwell should continue to see a consistent role.
RotoWire via ESPN · Oct 24
Head coach Glen Gulutzan said Friday that Back broke his finger and will miss 4-6 weeks, Robert Tiffin of NHL.com reports.
Back exited Wednesday's game against the Avalanche and was placed on injured reserve Friday. He's slated to miss at least a month after being diagnosed with a broken finger, and it's possible the Stars move him to long-term injured reserve at some point.
RotoWire via ESPN · Oct 16
Back (upper body) was placed on injured reserve Friday, retroactive to Oct. 14.
Back exited Wednesday's matchup against the Avalanche due to his upper-body injury, and he's facing a multi-game absence after landing on injured reserve. It's not yet clear when Back or Wyatt Johnston (illness) will be able to return to action, but David Perron could see playing time after signing with the Stars on Thursday.

Back (upper body) won't return to Wednesday's game versus the Avalanche.
It's not clear when Back sustained the injury, but he was missing from the Stars' bench in the second period. The forward can be considered day-to-day until the team provides an additional update. If Back can't play Saturday versus the Blackhawks, he could be replaced in the lineup by Wyatt Johnston (illness).
RotoWire via ESPN · Oct 15
Back notched an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-4 win over the Wild.
Back snapped a five-game point drought with the helper. He hasn't scored a goal in 15 contests, but his bottom-six assignment won't lead to much offense most of the time. Back has earned 12 points, 39 shots on net, 36 blocked shots, 27 hits and a plus-9 rating over 69 appearances this season.
RotoWire via ESPN · Apr 10
Back scored a goal in Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Golden Knights.
Back ended a 14-game goal drought when he tied the game at 1-1 in the middle of the second period. The 25-year-old has a goal and an assist over his last two outings, so he's starting to chip in a bit more from the fourth line. He's at five goals, 10 points, 29 shots on net, 29 blocked shots, 21 hits and a plus-6 rating over 54 appearances, making it unlikely he'll be a consistent depth scorer.
