Top Roope Hintz News

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Had fractured foot

    Hintz battled a fractured foot during the Western Conference Finals, Stars beat writer Robert Tiffin reported Saturday.

    The slash that caused Hintz to miss Game 3 from Darnell Nurse fractured his foot, Hintz confirmed at the Stars' exit interviews. He was able to return for the final two games of the series, scoring a goal, but the 28-year-old didn't look 100 percent. He should be good to go for training camp in the fall.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Nabs goal in Game 5 loss

    Hintz scored a goal Thursday in a 6-3 loss to Edmonton in Game 5.

    Hintz pulled the Stars to within 3-2 with a second-period power-play snipe, wiring a one-timer from between the circles past Stuart Skinner. He finished the postseason with 12 points (six goals, six assists) in 17 games. Half of those points came in two games in the first round against Colorado. Hintz needs to be bumped up 2025-26 fantasy cheat sheets -- he and the uber-talented Mikko Rantanen will have plenty of time to dominate the score sheets.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Set to play in Game 4

    Hintz (lower body) took warmups on the first line and is expected to play in Game 4 versus the Oilers on Tuesday, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Hintz was officially a game-time call, but it looks like he is good to go after missing Game 3. The 28-year-old sustained the injury on a slash by Darnell Nurse in Game 2, but the Stars should get a boost from having their top-line center back in action. Evgenii Dadonov will check out of the lineup to accommodate Hintz's return.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Game-time call Tuesday

    Hintz (lower body) will take the ice for warmups ahead of Game 4 against the Oilers on Tuesday before determining his availability, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Unfortunately for fantasy managers, Hintz's status won't be determined until the last minute, which was the same situation that played out ahead of Game 3 on Sunday. Prior to getting hurt, the 28-year-old center was mired in a five-game goal drought, during which he recorded a mere seven shots to go with one helper.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Status pending until game-time

    Hintz (lower body) will be a game-time decision for Sunday afternoon's Game 3 against the Oilers, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    The Stars are taking the decision of whether or not Hintz will play in Game 3 right up to the start of Sunday's matinee after he was injured on a slash from Edmonton's Darnell Nurse in Game 2. The 28-year-old Hintz has been productive in his 15 postseason contests, scoring five goals while adding six assists.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Out after all for Game 3

    Hintz (lower body) will not play in Sunday's Game 3 at Edmonton, Stars radio analyst Bruce LeVine reports.

    Hintz tried to give it a go, participating in warmups ahead of Sunday's contest, but he'll be held out of Game 3 with the injury he sustained after getting slashed in Game 2. With Hintz and his 11 points in 15 postseason games out of the lineup, Oskar Back will draw into the lineup and Wyatt Johnston will likely scoot into the top-six forward group for the Stars.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Sustains injury in Game 2

    Hintz suffered an apparent lower leg or ankle injury in Friday's Game 2 loss to the Oilers, Sam Nestler of DLLS Stars reports.

    Hintz was slashed near the top of his skate by Darnell Nurse in the third period, and the Dallas center needed help off the ice. The 28-year-old's status is in question for Sunday's Game 3 in Edmonton. If Hintz can't play, Wyatt Johnston would likely ascend to a top-six role while Oscar Back could draw back into the lineup on the fourth line.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Status undetermined for Game 3

    Hintz (lower body) is awaiting test results to determine his availability for Sunday's Game 3 in Edmonton, per Sam Nestler of DLLS Stars.

    Hintz was injured during Friday's 3-0 loss to the Oilers when Darnell Nurse slashed him in the third period. The 28-year-old Hintz needed to be helped off the ice after the incident. Hintz has five goals and 11 points across 15 playoff appearances this year. Wyatt Johnston might shift into the top six if Hintz is unavailable.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Puts up power-play helper

    Hintz logged a power-play assist and two hits in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Oilers in Game 1.

    Hintz snapped a three-game skid with the helper to set up Matt Duchene's go-ahead goal in the third period. The 28-year-old Hintz has accumulated 11 points (five on the power play), 33 shots on net, 12 hits, 14 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating across 14 playoff outings. He remains in a top-line role, and his budding chemistry with Mikko Rantanen will likely be a primary source of offense for the Stars during the Western Conference Finals.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Two points in Game 3 victory

    Hintz notched a power-play goal, an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Sunday's 5-2 win over Winnipeg in Game 3.

    This was Hintz's third multi-point effort of the playoffs. The Finnish center opened the scoring with the man advantage just 2:27 into the first period, and he set up linemate Mikko Rantanen's ninth goal of the postseason in the final stanza. Hintz, who has five goals and 10 points (four on the power play) over 10 contests, trails only Rantanen for the team lead in playoff scoring. The Stars can take a commanding 3-1 series lead if they secure another victory on home ice in Game 4 on Tuesday.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Generates power-play helper

    Hintz recorded a power-play assist, three shots on goal and two PIM in Wednesday's 3-2 win over the Jets in Game 1.

    Hintz has seven points over his last four games. The 28-year-old had the secondary assist on Mikko Rantanen's third goal of the second period in Wednesday's win. Hintz is at four goals, four assists, 26 shots, 10 blocked shots, seven hits, 10 PIM and a minus-1 rating over eight playoff appearances in a top-line role.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Two of each in Game 6 loss

    Hintz scored twice on five shots, added two assists and blocked two shots in Thursday's 7-4 loss to the Avalanche in Game 6.

    Hintz has three goals and three assists over the last two games, though his second-period heroics Thursday weren't enough. Overall, the center is at seven points, 23 shots on net, seven hits, eight blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over six playoff outings. Hintz's chemistry with fellow Finns Mikko Rantanen and Mikael Granlund is growing, and that's good news if they can piece together a strong encore in Saturday's Game 7.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Two-point effort Monday

    Hintz scored a goal and added an assist Monday in the Stars' 6-2 win over the Avalanche in Game 5 of their first-round series.

    After feeding Mikko Rantanen for what proved to be the game-winner on a 2-on-1 break early in the second period, Hintz flipped home an empty-netter late in the third. Hintz came into Monday's contest with just one point, a Game 1 power-play goal, through Dallas' first four playoff contests, but it wasn't for a lack of trying -- he's fired 18 shots on net in the series. The 28-year-old center will look to stay productive in Game 6 on Thursday as the Stars try to advance to the second round.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Nets lone goal on power play

    Hintz scored a power-play goal on three shots and added four PIM in Saturday's 5-1 loss to the Avalanche in Game 1.

    Hintz got the Stars on the board in the third period, but his double-minor penalty for high-sticking in the second led to the Avalanche's game-winning goal. Hintz ended his seven-game goal drought with the tally -- he had two assists, 13 shots on net and a minus-3 rating in that span. The bigger concern for the 28-year-old is the absence of linemate Jason Robertson (knee), who is week-to-week after suffering an injury in the regular-season finale. Hintz had 28 goals, 67 points, 160 shots on net and a plus-18 in 76 regular-season contests, but he had a slow start to the campaign when Robertson was still getting up to speed after missing the preseason.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Manages power-play helper

    Hintz recorded a power-play assist in Saturday's 5-3 loss to Utah.

    Hintz has been under the 17-minute mark for ice time in three of the last four games, so it appears the Stars are trying to build in a little rest for him. The 28-year-old center snapped a four-game point drought when he set up a Wyatt Johnston tally early in the first period. Hintz is now at 66 points in 74 appearances, surpassing his 65-point effort from 80 games a year ago. In 2024-25, Hintz has added 20 power-play points, 152 shots on net, 52 hits, 45 blocked shots and a plus-20 rating.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Finds twine Thursday

    Hintz scored a goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Predators.

    Hintz has scored in three of the last four games and has 10 points across his last six outings. The 28-year-old has played a large role in the Stars' seven-game winning streak as he continues to center the top line. For the season, Hintz is up to 28 goals, 65 points, 147 shots on net, 48 hits, 42 blocked shots and a plus-21 rating over 69 appearances. The Stars still have a shot at the top seed in the Central Division, so it's unclear if they'll rest Hintz in any of their last seven contests, though he should still have time to challenge for the 30-goal and 70-point marks.
