Dallas Stars defenseman Miro Heiskanen will not play in Game 4 against the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday, head coach Pete DeBoer said. Heiskanen, who had knee surgery in February and hasn’t played since Jan. 28, was as close to a full participant as he’s been at Friday’s practice, skating in line rushes and taking reps on both power play units.
