Dallas Stars Daily Links: Roope Hintz Gets His Biggest Assignment Yet

The Dallas Stars continue their preseason tonight against the Minnesota Wild, and the lineup continues to take shape as head coach Jim Montgomery tinkers with combination. One of the most interesting mixes will involve Roope Hintz – a player who many fans hope can step up to the 2C challenge.

Hintz will center two superstars during tonight’s game, reports Mark Stepneski:

Jamie Benn and Alexander Radulov will skate on the top line with [Hintz] at center. The Stars want to see how the 21-year-old Hintz fares playing with the team’s top two wingers.
