It looks as if Roope Hintz is staying off the Cedar Park shuttle for good. The 22-year-old forward, until recently a Texas Stars standout, has found his stride in the NHL.
On a Dallas Stars team that desperately needs more offense, head coach Jim Montgomery recognizes game in his other Finnish rookie:
“He’s just someone who’s adding to our being a more dynamic offensive team, and he’s very responsible defensively,” Montgomery said. “His speed and his strength on pucks right now is very impressive.”
Seguin said the speedy Hintz may need to make a change here and there, perhaps tapping the brakes now and then.
