4 years agoDallas Stars forward Roope Hintz (lower body) and defenseman Miro Heiskanen (lower body) have been ruled out of Tuesday's home game against Detroit. Hintz has played through an injury all year, so it's no surprise to see him sit one out again, but Heiskanen will miss his first game of the season. Both players had two points in Monday's 3-2 shootout win over Detroit, and Hintz is riding a superb six-game point streak that includes five multi-point efforts. It's a big blow for the Stars, but also a chance for others to step up. Jason Dickinson takes over as the first-line center, while Sami Vatanen has moved up in the lineup at the back.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
