An already thin Texas roster got even thinner this morning as the Dallas Stars recalled Roope Hintz to the NHL. It's the first NHL recall for the forward, who is in his first year in North America. The recall could be of the emergency variety, which means it wouldn't count against the four recall limit post trade deadline. More information on that will be available after Dallas morning skate.
Here's the release:
Dallas Stars General Manager Jim Nill announced today that the club has recalled forward Roope Hintz from the Texas Stars, Dallas' top development affiliate in the American Hockey League (AHL).
