Roope Hintz Exits Early On Saturday
56 seconds agoDallas Stars center Roope Hintz (upper body) exited early during their loss to the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday evening. Hintz took a deflected shot to the face. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status. He was taken to the hospital for further testing as well. The team may opt to keep Hintz sidelined for their next contest which is on Sunday evening against the Vancouver Canucks even if the injury is not serious. Before departing, the 28-year-old tallied two blocked shots and did not get on the scoresheet. However, entering this contest, Hintz was riding an impressive six-game point streak. During this stretch, he tallied 16 points (three goals) with seven of the points coming on the power-play. If Hintz were to miss time, fantasy managers should expect either Matt Duchene or Wyatt Johnston to move up to the top forward line alongside Mikko Rantanen and Jason Robertson.
