Seguin later confirmed the house belonged to him but clarified that he was no longer living there and was unharmed.
Thanks to everyone reaching out about the news tonight, I am safe. Luckily this is my house for sale and I have moved into a new one. I just left the area and it is an extremely sad sight to see. Prayers to everyone affected by the tornado. https://t.co/wT6XlUBi8N

No one was in the home at the time of the storm, the Stars told WFAA's Jake Harris.
Severe storms hit the Dallas-Fort Worth area Sunday night, bringing about hail, lightning, and at least one confirmed tornado.
Seguin wasn't the only Stars player impacted. Goaltender Ben Bishop was absent from the team's morning skate because his property sustained damage in the tornado, according to The Athletic's Sean Shapiro. However, Bishop and his family are safe and the netminder will be at Monday's game.
