Dallas Stars Loan Goaltender Remi Poirier to Texas Stars on Conditioning Assignment

Nov 14, 2026

FRISCO, Texas – Dallas Stars General Manager Jim Nill announced today that the NHL club loaned goaltender Remi Poirier to the Texas Stars, Dallas’ primary development affiliate in the American Hockey League, on a conditioning assignment.

 

Poirier, 25, joins Texas where he owns the franchise record for career wins (70) and saves (3,621). Ranking second in appearances (137), the fifth-year pro carries an all-time record of 70-51-14 with a 2.76 goals-against average and .908 save percentage, with six shutouts. Last season, Poirier appeared in a career-high 52 games and posted a 27-19-6 record with a 2.62 GAA, a .912 SV% and two shutouts. He was named the AHL’s Goaltender of the Month for March, marking the first goalie in team history to win the monthly award twice (March 2025).

 

The 6-foot-2 goaltender earned a preseason shutout for Dallas on Sept. 23 against Minnesota and was claimed off of waivers by the New Jersey Devils on Sept. 27. The Devils traded Poirier to the Washington Capitals on Nov. 1, who put him on waivers Nov. 9, leading to Dallas reclaiming the goaltender who hasn’t played a regular season game so far in 2026-27.

 

The Farnham, Quebec native was selected by Dallas in the sixth round (185th overall) of the 2020 NHL Draft.

 

Texas faces the Tucson Roadrunners at 8:00 p.m. CT tonight and 5:00 p.m. CT on Sunday at Tucson Convention Center Arena. Catch all the action on AHL TV on FloHockey.
