A tornado in the Dallas-Fort Worth area Sunday night caused severe damage to the home of Tyler Seguin, the Dallas Stars forward confirmed early Monday morning.
The tornado completely blew the roof off Seguin's home in North Dallas, according to a photo taken by NBC5's Meredith Land.

Fortunately, the home was unoccupied; Seguin tweeted that he recently put the home up for sale and has moved into a new place.
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 — Tyler Seguin (@tseguinofficial) October 21, 2019
The 27-year-old was in Philadelphia on Saturday night as the Stars played the Flyers, but returns Monday for Dallas' home game against the Ottawa Senators.
Seguin, the Bruin's No. 2 overall pick in the 2010 NHL Draft, spent his first three seasons in Boston and won a Stanley Cup with the team in 2011.
