The 31-year-old Finn is stuck in a 23-game goal drought during which he's managed just 23 shots to go with four assists.

The 31-year-old Hakanpaa has two assists over his last eight contests and is up to 12 points, 55 shots on net, 193 hits, 122 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 63 outings overall.

The helper was Hakanpaa's first point in two games back from a five-game absence with an upper-body injury. The 31-year-old defenseman shouldn't be expected to pile up points while seeing bottom-four usage. He's at 11 points, 168 hits, 113 blocked shots, 48 shots on net, 33 PIM and a plus-9 rating through 57 contests. Hakanpaa may lose ice time once Chris Tanev is able to make his Stars debut. |

Prior to his four-game absence, the 31-year-old defenseman was goalless in 14 straight while adding two assists, 15 shots on net, 48 hits and 39 blocked shots in that span. Derrick Pouliot should continue to play with Hakanpaa and Nils Lundkvist (concussion) both still unavailable. |

Hakanpaa (upper body) is not with the Stars for their four-game road trip, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports Monday. - Hakanpaa is currently mired in a 14-game goal drought during which he added just two assists and 15 shots. As such, the 31-year-old Finn's absence is unlikely to impact the majority of fantasy players, except in formats that utilize hits and blocks. In addition to Hakanpaa, the Stars will also be without Nils Lundkvist (concussion) for the trip. |

While far from a reliable scorer, Hakanpaa managed seven points over 14 games in December. That's all the offense on the season for the heavy-hitting blueliner, who has added 76 hits, 61 blocks, 31 PIM, 26 shots on net and a plus-7 rating over 35 appearances. He's on pace for a campaign similar to his 16-point effort across all 82 contests last season. |

Hakanpaa scored his first goal of the season in Saturday's 3-2 victory over the Predators. - He also added four shots on net, four hits and a plus-2 rating to his ledger. The Stars were trailing 2-0 heading into the third period and were still down a goal inside the final minute, but after Craig Smith tied it up with 15 seconds remaining, Hakanpaa blasted home the game-winner with just four ticks left on the clock. In the process, Dallas became the first team in NHL history to score the tying and winning goals inside the final 15 seconds of a game. Hakanpaa isn't known for his offense, but the 31-year-old blueliner has six points through 11 games in December with 26 hits, 14 blocked shots, 11 shots on net and a plus-2 rating. |

Hakanpaa notched an assist in Monday's 6-3 win over the Red Wings. - Hakanpaa helped out on Esa Lindell's buzzer-beater at the end of the first period. After a cold start to the year, Hakanpaa has five assists over his last six games to get more in line with his expected season-long pace. Those five helpers are all he has on offense this season while adding 52 hits, 47 blocked shots, a plus-7 rating, 27 PIM and 15 shots on net through 27 appearances. Hakanpaa's offense is too inconsistent for most fantasy formats, but he can be useful in deep leagues that value physical play. |
None |

Hakanpaa provided an assist in Saturday's 6-1 loss to the Golden Knights. - Hakanpaa has earned all four of his helpers this season over five games in December. The Finnish blueliner is up to 52 hits, 46 blocked shots, 27 PIM, 14 shots on net and a plus-6 rating through 26 contests.

Hakanpaa logged an assist, five hits and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Panthers. - Hakanpaa didn't have a point prior to December, but he's now logged three helpers over the last three games. Part of it is positive regression, but the 31-year-old shouldn't be relied on for consistent offense -- he's more of a physical role player in the Stars' bottom four. He's added 50 hits, 44 blocked shots, 27 PIM and a plus-9 rating over 24 appearances. |
None |
| Dec. 2, 2023 |
Hakanpaa notched a pair of assists, two hits, two PIM and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 8-1 win over the Lightning. - Hakanpaa went 21 games without a point to open the season. He helped out on a Jamie Benn tally in the first period and then picked up another assist on Mason Marchment's goal in the second. Hakanpaa had a career-high 16 points last season, but Saturday's effort is unlikely to spark a significant run of offense for the heavy-hitting blueliner. He's managed just 13 shots on net to go with 27 PIM, 41 hits, 41 blocked shots and a plus-9 rating through 22 outings this season. |
None |
| Nov. 18, 2023 |
Hakanpaa has yet to record a point through 16 games this season. - Hakanpaa battled an injury just before the start of the season, but it hasn't stopped him from maintaining his usual role as a defensive specialist.

The 31-year-old has maintained his physical play with 24 hits, 29 blocked shots and 19 PIM to go with 12 shots on net and a plus-5 rating. Hakanpaa's defensive presence likely means he'll stick in the lineup regardless of his scoring contributions. |

Hakanpaa (undisclosed) didn't take warmups, suggesting he won't play Tuesday in Game 4 versus the Kraken, Saad Yousuf of The Athletic reports. - Especially with lingering doubts about Miro Heiskanen (upper body), it would seem Hakanpaa is hurt rather than a healthy scratch. Hakanpaa scored a goal, doled out six hits and added 10 PIM in Game 3 on Sunday while seeing 20:10 of ice time, and he only went minus-1 in the 7-2 loss.

Hakanpaa notched an assist and three hits in Friday's 4-2 win over the Ducks. - Playing against his former team, Hakanpaa was able to get on the scoresheet with an assist on a Joel Hanley goal in the second period. Hakanpaa isn't known for offense, but he collected three points in his last seven games of the regular season. The Finn ended 2021-22 with 12 points, 248 hits, 112 blocked shots, 68 shots on net, 43 PIM and a plus-1 rating in 80 contests. He'll look to bring that physicality to a first-round playoff series against the Flames, which begins Tuesday. |

Hakanpaa (undisclosed) will return to the lineup Tuesday versus the Islanders, Matthew DeFranks of The Dallas Morning News reports. - Hakanpaa missed Sunday's game versus the Kraken after suffering an injury in warmups. It's evidently not severe, as the 30-year-old will return after a one-game absence. Andrej Sekera will be a healthy scratch with Hakanpaa back in the lineup. |

Hakanpaa (undisclosed) was hurt in warmups and will not play Sunday against Seattle, Bruce LeVine of Dallas Stars Radio reports. - It's unclear what happened to Hakanpaa but an update on his status should be available ahead of Tuesday's matchup with the Islanders.

Hakanpaa scored a goal on two shots, levied six hits and blocked two shots in Saturday's 5-4 win over the Sharks. - Tyler Seguin whiffed on a shot, but Hakanpaa was there to fire it home at 8:11 of the first period. Offense is rare for Hakanpaa, though he's had a career year with three goals and nine points in 66 appearances. The hard-hitting Finn has added 204 hits, 96 blocked shots, 43 PIM and a plus-3 rating in a bottom-four role. |

Hakanpaa doled out nine hits and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 2-1 loss to the Predators. - Hakanpaa's nine hits represented a season high for the bruising defenseman, who has only been held without a hit three times this season. He's not one to add much offense -- Tuesday was his ninth game in a row without a point. The Finn is at 158 hits, 76 blocked shots, eight points, a plus-6 rating and 39 PIM through 55 appearances. With Miro Heiskanen (illness) expected back Saturday versus the Rangers, Hakanpaa will likely revert to a bottom-pairing role. |

Hakanpaa notched an assist, five hits and five blocked shots in Tuesday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche. - Hakanpaa picked up the secondary helper on Jason Robertson's tally in the second period. The 29-year-old Hakanpaa also set a season high with his five blocks Tuesday. The Finn has enjoyed a career year with eight points, 124 hits, 57 blocks, 37 shots on net, 37 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 46 contests. Given his lack of offense, his fantasy appeal is limited to deep formats. |

Hakanpaa scored an empty-net goal on two shots, doled out five hits and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Devils. - Hakanpaa's two goals this season have come in the last eight games. He's yet to score on a goalie, as both of his tallies have been empty-netters. The Finn is a bruising and defense-first blueliner with seven points, 101 hits, 48 blocked shots and 37 PIM through 39 appearances. |

Hakanpaa scored an empty-net goal on two shots, logged three hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 5-2 win over the Kraken. - Hakanpaa took the shot from his own goal line, and it had just enough to get into the net vacated by Philipp Grubauer as the Kraken tried to mount a late rally. The goal was Hakanpaa's first as a Star. The defenseman isn't known for his offense -- he has just six points to go with 83 hits, 39 blocked shots, 33 PIM and a plus-6 rating through 32 contests. He'll likely continue to play in a bottom-four role. |

Hakanpaa had two penalty minutes, three blocked shots, and two hits in a 2-1 loss to the Blues on Sunday. - Hakanpaa hooked St. Louis center Ryan O'Reilly late in the third period, leading to the game-tying goal scored by O'Reilly.

Hakanpaa cleared the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Monday. - The Stars activated 10 players out of the league's protocols, including Hakanpaa, which could be an indication the team will be ready to play against the Panthers on Thursday. In 28 appearances this season, the 29-year-old Hakanpaa has garnered five helpers but is still looking for his first goal of the season. Despite his lack of offensive production, the Finnish blueliner should remain a fixture in the Stars' lineup moving forward. |

Hakanpaa was placed in the NHL's COVID-19 protocols Friday. - In 28 games this season, Hapanpaa has yet to score a goal while registering just 24 shots. The blueliner has garnered five assists on the year but generally figures to provide low-end fantasy value moving forward. If Hakanpaa does miss out versus Nashville on Monday, Andrej Sekera figures to step into the lineup for the first time since Dec. 14 versus St. Louis. |

| Dec. 12, 2021 |
Hakanpaa posted an assist, three hits and two blocked shots in Saturday's 2-1 loss to the Sharks. - Hakanpaa now has a career-high five points in just 24 contests this year. All of his contributions on offense have been assists. The Finn has added 57 hits, 29 blocked shots, 27 PIM, 20 shots on net and a plus-4 rating while working in a bottom-four role for much of the season. |

Hakanpaa registered an assist and two hits in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings. - Hakanpaa helped out on Jason Robertson's first of two goals in the third period. Points are rare for Hakanpaa -- he has two assists through 13 games. The Finnish blueliner had four points in 57 contests last season between the Ducks and the Hurricanes. He's added 33 hits, 16 blocked shots and 25 PIM as a physical, third-pairing defenseman this season. |
