Roope Hintz Not Expected to Return During Regular Season
Dallas Stars center Roope Hintz (lower body) remains week-to-week and is not expected to play until the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs start. Dallas has three regular-season games remaining, starting with Saturday's matchup with the New York Rangers. Hintz has sat out 17 games due to a lower-body injury. He might also miss some postseason action, as Stars general manager Jim Nill told reporters the team isn't sure whether Hintz will be available for Game 1 of the opening round. Hintz will finish the 2025-26 regular season with 44 points (15 goals, 29 assists) in 53 games. Justin Hryckowian has done well in an expanded role during Hintz's absence, looking to extend his point streak to three games on Saturday.
