The Dallas Stars made an early trade ahead of the NHL Trade Deadline, acquiring Mikael Granlund and Cody Ceci from the San Jose Sharks. This proactive move addressed their injury-depleted lineup and strengthened their roster.

Mikael Granlund scored his first goal for the Stars and Dallas beat the Vancouver Canucks 4-1 on Sunday night. Dallas picked up both the Finnish center and Cody Ceci from the San Jose Sharks for first- and third-round picks on Feb.

NOTES: Duchene has four assists during a three-game point streak. … Stars forward Wyatt Johnston, who signed a five-year, $42 million contract extension Saturday, had his point streak end at nine games (nine goals, six assists). … Canucks defenseman Quinn Hughes missed a third straight game with a lower-body injury.
