Career night for Roope Hintz leads Stars past Sabres as playoff push continues

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- Roope Hintz was one of the only people in KeyBank Center to know.

With a joyous kick of his left leg and an exuberant pump of his right fist, Hintz celebrated his first of two goals during the Stars' 2-0 win over the Sabres on Tuesday night, while the rest of the arena wondered how a puck could go in and out of the net so quickly.

Hintz collected a loose puck after Jason Dickinson's shot hit the post and flipped a puck over Sabres goaltender Linus Ullmark's shoulder with both speed and ease.
