Top Roope Hintz News

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Hurt late in Saturday's win

    Hintz sustained an undisclosed injury in the third period of Saturday's 4-0 win over the Blackhawks, Robert Tiffin of NHL.com reports.

    There was no update on Hintz's status after the contest. The center had a goal in the game prior to his exit. He's earned five points through eight outings this season. Hintz can be considered day-to-day until the Stars provide a more thorough update.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Logs big minutes despite being questionable

    Hintz (undisclosed) had a shot, two hits and one block in 18:05 of ice time in Dallas' 3-2 shootout win over Colorado on Wednesday.

    Hintz sustained the injury during Tuesday's 3-2 loss to the Avalanche, but he didn't end up missing a full game due to the injury. He has two goals and four points in seven outings this season. Provided Hintz remains healthy, he should continue to serve on the top line and first power-play unit.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Cleared to play Wednesday

    Hintz (undisclosed) is available for Wednesday's game against Colorado, Mike Heika of the Stars' official site reports.

    Hintz was unavailable for postgame media availability following Tuesday's matchup against the Avalanche for an undisclosed reason, but he'll be available for the second half of the back-to-back set. Across his six appearances to begin the regular season, he's recorded two goals, two assists, nine hits, five PIM and two blocked shots while averaging 16:47 of ice time.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Undergoing evaluation

    Hintz (undisclosed) was unavailable to speak to the media after Tuesday's game versus the Avalanche, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    While no official reason was given, it likely stems from Hintz's fight with Nathan MacKinnon. Hintz was seen icing his hand in the penalty box after the fight, though he was able to finish the contest. Check back in prior to Wednesday's rematch against the Avalanche to confirm Hintz's availability for that game.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Strikes on power play

    Hintz scored a power-play goal on six shots in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Sabres.

    Hintz had the last tally of the game. The center is starting to get going with three points over his last two outings. He's up to nine shots on net, seven hits and a plus-2 rating across four contests. Hintz should continue to see steady top-six usage and power-play time.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Dishes pair of assists

    Hintz notched two assists and a plus-3 rating in Monday's 5-0 win over the Sharks.

    Hintz got on the scoresheet for the first time in three games this season with the pair of helpers. He set up Miro Heiskanen's opening tally late in the first period and also assisted Jamie Benn's goal to stretch the Dallas lead to 3-0. Hintz has functioned in a top-six role to start the year, adding three shots on net, seven hits and a plus-1 rating. The Stars have a fair amount of balance between the first and second lines -- neither trio is likely to see heavy ice time in most situations.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Set for 2026-27 season

    Hintz (hamstring) will be ready for the start of the 2026-27 campaign, per Owen Newkirk of DLLS Sports on Monday.

    Hintz appeared in two of Dallas' four preseason games and is back to full health after a hamstring injury sidelined him for 26 straight games, including the playoffs, to conclude the 2025-26 campaign. Hintz had 15 goals, 44 points, 126 shots on net and 60 hits in 53 appearances for Dallas last year.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Mending from hamstring injury

    Hintz (hamstring) believes he was close to returning to the lineup after dealing with a setback in his recovery, according to Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News on Monday.

    Hintz, who tore his hamstring in two spots, was hopeful that he could have played in Game 2 or 3 had the Stars advanced to the second round of the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs. However, he will have the summer to recover fully after Dallas' first-round exit at the hands of Minnesota on Thursday.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Unlikely to return in first round

    Head coach Glen Gulutzan said Tuesday that Hintz (lower body) has been ruled out for Thursday's Game 6 against the Wild, and he's unlikely to play in a potential Game 7, Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Hintz had already been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 5 against Minnesota, and it seems unlikely that he'll return at any point during the Stars' first-round series. It's not yet clear whether he'll be in the mix to return at some point during the second round if Dallas advances.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Resumes skating

    Hintz (lower body), who has been ruled out for Saturday's Game 4 against the Wild, resumed skating Wednesday, Mark Lazerus of The Athletic reports.

    Head coach Glen Gulutzan said Thursday that Hintz is also highly doubtful for Tuesday's Game 5, but it at least appears as though the 29-year-old is trending in the right direction. The Stars want him to be able to skate with the whole team before he's in the mix to return, and it's not yet clear when that could occur.

  • Stars' Roope Hintz: Doubtful for Game 4

    Hintz (lower body) is doubtful for Game 4 against Minnesota on Saturday, Sam Nestler of DLLS Sports reports.

    While there's a chance that Hintz will join the team ahead of Saturday's matchup, he won't accompany his teammates to Minnesota for Game 3 on Wednesday. He has been out since getting injured against Colorado on March 6. According to Lia Assimakopoulos of The Dallas Morning News, the Stars hope Hintz will be an option for Game 5 against the Wild next Tuesday.
