| April 29, 2008 Sergei Zubov is going to see more ice time in Game 3 on Tuesday, according to the Dallas Morning News. He is recovering from a sports hernia, and the team trusts that he will be able to handle a larger load. Zubov commented on his ice time in Game 2, "The first half of the game was a little struggle. I got better as it went on, and I'm obviously thrilled to get the win. For me, as long as I have the same support from the guys like I did tonight, I'm going to be fine." |
| April 27, 2008 The Dallas Stars continue to press forward without top defenseman Sergei Zubov . Zubov has been out since January 19th with various concerns, most notably the recovery from surgery on his right foot performed in late February. However, reports have been revolving of his potential return during the last week, yet the Stars' leading enforcer continues to sit. |
| April 25, 2008 Sergei Zubov has a chance to be in the Stars' lineup tonight, according to the Dallas Morning News. Zubov remains listed as day-to-day due to various ailments, and Coach Dave Tippett said the Stars would see how he reacts to today's morning skate in San Jose. |
| April 23, 2008 Sergei Zubov skated on Tuesday and is expected to return to full practice today, according to the Dallas Morning News. Coach Dave Tippett stated, "Zubov, who went to Germany in early April to have a procedure done to repair a nagging sports hernia injury, should play at some point in the Stars' second round playoff series. Whether he starts the series or not, time will tell. He's certainly making progress. Getting in a good workout like that, a scrimmage, is a positive sign." |
| April 22, 2008 Dallas defenseman Sergei Zubov participated in the team's practice today and spent the full time on the ice, thus giving the indication that he may be available for the 2nd round of the playoffs, accoring to CBSSports.com. |
| April 19, 2008 Sergei Zubov, out because of a sports hernia and subsequent operations, has increased his workout load of late and is now working out in pads with the Stars extra players, this according to the Dallas Morning News. Still, it appears that he is not close to returning to game action. "He's still not in the discussion," HC Dave Tippett said. |
| April 17, 2008 Sergei Zubov still has not put on pads to skate, and he continues to remain "not on the radar yet" according to HC Dave Tippett in a report in the Star-Telegram. |
| April 16, 2008 Sergei Zubov (groin) returned to the ice for the first time since having a procedure in Germany, though no timeline has been established for his return to game action, this according to TSN. |
| April 10, 2008 Sergei Zubov still has no clear cut date set for a return to the ice, let alone to the lineup, this according to TSN. Zubov flew to Germany last week to have a procedure that was designed to speed up his recovery from a sports hernia, but as of Thursday it is still not known when he will be able to return to the ice. Without Zubov running the power-play, the Stars could find it difficult to get pucks past Ducks in Round 1. |
| April 4, 2008 Sergei Zubov will likely not be available for the Stars in the first round of the playoff due to his sports hernia, this according to the Dallas Morning News. In fact, the injury is taking so long to heal that Zubov has actually flown to Germany to have a "procedure" done that should speed up his recovery, but the team doesn't know when he will be back in action. Zubov was having a tremendous season when injury struck and he will end the year with 35 points in 46 games. His loss is a big blow to the Stars playoff hopes as he is a stabilizing force on the blueline that runs the team's power-play. |
| April 3, 2008 Sergei Zubov will be on the shelf for Thursday action, according to the Dallas Morning News. He is suffering from groin and foot ailments, and his intensity will be missed on the ice. |

He has been out since Jan 17 and it looked like he was going to be ready to play for the start of the playoffs, but that may not be the case now. He will see a specialist on Friday and Dave Tippett commented, "It's a concern, it's a concern. We'll revisit it on Friday. We'll see what results we get and where we are." |
| March 30, 2008 The Dallas Morning News is reporting that Sergei Zubov will be in the lineup as early as next week. After a jaw dropping 2-8-0 skid that's threatened to knock the Stars out of the playoffs, Dallas fans received good news hearing that their assistant captain would be returning. Zubov has only 35 points on the season but his ice intangibles are immeasurable. |
| March 29, 2008 Sergei Zubov was able to skate in practice on Friday, according to the Dallas Morning News. It's a positive sign in his recovery from foot surgery, but he's not expected to return to the ice for Saturday's game. |
| March 21, 2008 Sergei Zubov skated Thursday for the first time since January 17 and said it went better than expected, according to the Dallas Morning News.

| February 24, 2008 Sergei Zubov will not skate for the next three to four weeks after undergoing foot surgery Sunday. During the procedure, a screw was inserted in the fractured bone in Zubov's foot, according to Sports Network. He's missed the last 17 games with the foot injury, and he's also dealt with a groin ailment. It's possible Zubov may not return until the playoffs. If you really need to open up a roster spot, go ahead and cut him loose. |
| February 17, 2008 Sergei Zubov is back skating with the team though there is still no set timetable for his return to the lineup from groin and foot injuries according to NHL.com. Zubov has been out since January 17th, and with Philipe Boucher (shoulder) out of action, it's a minor miracle that the Stars have been able to go 9-1 in their last 10 games. |
| February 7, 2008 The Stars placed Sergei Zubov on IR Thursday, retroactive to January 17, with a groin injury. Zubov has sat out the previous seven games with the ailment. |
| February 5, 2008 Sergei Zubov still has no timetable for a return to game action, according to the AP. The good news is that he's practicing with his Stars' teammates. Zubov is working his way back from groin and foot injuries, so keep him benched for now. |
| January 30, 2008 Sergei Zubov missed his fifth game with a groin injury and isn't on the road trip, the AP reports. |
| January 19, 2008 Sergei Zubov isn't going to play this weekend due to his sore foot. It kept him out of Saturday's game against Columbis, and he won't play Sunday against the Ducks, either. |
| January 16, 2008 Sergei Zubov returned to action Tuesday and played 28 minutes at Anaheim, a pretty solid statement that his foot injury is no big deal. |
| January 13, 2008 Sergei Zubov tested his bruised foot out during Saturday's pregame skate, but he opted to sit out of the evening tilt. "He was better today," coach Dave Tippett said. "He had an X-ray, and there's no break. A couple of days off will be real good for him. I would be real surprised if he's not ready to go on Tuesday." Zubov also is dealing with a hand injury, but it doesn't sound like either malady is serious. Hopefully, the added rest this weekend will allow him to be on the ice for Tuesday's contest. |
| January 5, 2008 Sergei Zubov was able to practice Friday, despite the hand injury that kept him from lacing up for Thursday's game. He's listed as questionable for Saturday's contest, according to the Dallas Morning News. A decision on his status probably won't be made until close to game time. |
| January 4, 2008 Sergei Zubov (hand) should be able to play Saturday against Detroit. He didn't go for the Stars in Thursday's loss at Minnesota. |
