Dallas Stars head coach Lindy Ruff updated the status of injured goaltender Kari Lehtonen after Saturday's 4-3 win over the Minnesota Wild.
Tim Thomas stopped six shots while earning the win in relief, and is likely to get the lion's share of starts in Dallas if Lehtonen is out for an extended period of time.
Haula was assessed a game misconduct, and may be hearing from the NHL's Department of Player Safety in the coming days.
