Scottie Upshall will not be sticking around in Texas. The Dallas Stars have released the 35-year-old from his professional tryout with the team.
Upshall, a left winger, missed all of last season with a knee injury. After being drafted by, and playing for, the Nashville Predators, Upshall also suited up for Philidelphia, Phoenix, Columbus, Florida and St. Louis. The veteran of 759 NHL games has managed 138 goals and 147 assists for a total of 285 career points.
The stars also released former first-round pick Stefan Noesen from his PTO. The 26-year-old most recently played for the New Jersey Devils, getting eight points, including three goals, in 41 games. The winger also played for Anaheim over the course of his 159 NHL games.
