In the second, Hintz tallied his second power-play helper, this time on the primary assist to set up Wyatt Johnson on his 18th goal of the campaign. Later in the third, Hintz would cap off his impressive evening with another primary assist on Logan Stankoven's second goal of the evening.

Roope Hintz To Miss One Week Of Action

He sustained a facial injury on Saturday against the Edmonton Oilers when a puck struck him in the second period. Hintz is once again sitting among Dallas' scoring leaders in 2024-25, boasting 25 goals and 52 points in 59 appearances. Wyatt Johnston, who has notched 60 points (24 goals, 36 assists) in 64 games, took over the first-line center duties in Sunday's matchup against the Vancouver Canucks.

Roope Hintz Exits Early On Saturday
3 weeks 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.
