The standout from Finland has been ruled out for next month's 4 Nations Face-Off tournament. Stars coach Pete DeBoer says Heiskanen had an MRI and was planning to see a specialist for more information on the prognosis. Heiskanen was injured in the third period of the Stars' 4-3 overtime victory over Vegas on Tuesday after taking the hit from Stone. The Vegas player fell toward Heiskanen's left knee and thigh after getting tripped. Stone was penalized for tripping.
