Every single time I see his name I think it says Rope Heinz..mmmmm rope with ketchup on it

 

[Hockeyholic]

This guy is definitely not a player to come out of nowhere (Ala Kontos or Druce). At least 37 goals and 80 points in the past two regular seasons.

If he improves I can see him being a top 10 C (At least) in the league.

What is your view on Hintz? Already before the playoffs he was a legit 1st line center but what he is showing during these playoffs is incredible.

Do you guys think he is just on a hot stretch or do you believe he can sustain this elite level for several years and become a top 15 nhl player?

 

[MarotteMarauder]

Size, speed and hands. The real deal.

Hot stretch. I could also see him continuing being hot in playoff scenarios but remains a 70-80pt guy during the regular season.

Soft euro, product of some canadien kid

I hope this is sarcasm because nobody in his line mates and main defense partners and main goalie are Canadians...

I can definitely see him break the 100 point mark as he improves and gets even more confidence.

Of course for both him and Robertson the question is how to be elite even after Pavelski retires.

Johnston can replace Pavelski on the topline no?

Pavelski had a long cold stretch during the season, they still played great.

 

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

He’s been dropping Hintz that he’s really good. Shame if you’ve missed em.

 

[PensandCaps]

Easily, he's gonna be super good. But i think they're better as a team if they didn't put their 3 best players on one line.

 

[Straight Fire]

Most exciting player on Dallas IMO.

 

[Team_Spirit]

Who?

Is it a currency?
Is it ketchup?!
~No silly~
It's Roope Hintz

Didn’t know dude was tatted af. Instantly makes him a top 10 most interesting nhl player, which speaks to how boring these guys usually are.

 

[Electric Blue]

Go Roope I guess

 

[account deactivated]

I'm not really surprised at how well he's playing. If you've watched him in the past, especially the playoffs, he's shown flashes of this level, but this is probably the first time he's been in the playoffs and not injured.

 

[Hiukafen]

I didn't expect he would be at this level when he was playing on third line in the 2016 WJC team.

Imagine he was there with Rantanen.

Laine - Aho - Puljujärvi
Saarela - Nättinen - Kapanen
Kalapudas - Hintz - Rantanen
Björkqvist - Siikonen - Lammikko

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

He's a really good player. Not a superstar by any means but definitely a star, top 20 center in the NHL. I didn't think he would get to this level in his career, thought he was a 4th line center.

 

[Bruce Granville]

On a good team like the Leafs or the Oilers he‘d be a 4th line centre.

 

[Puckluck]

On a good team like the Leafs or the Oilers he‘d be a 4th line centre.

Yes, and paid minimum salary to fit under the cap. Also play 12 min per game to allow their stars to play 22 min per game. Then take a collective blame together with other third and fourth liners for not having enough depth.

 

[POVERTY]

On a good team like the Leafs or the Oilers he‘d be a 4th line centre.

He'd likely be the 3rd best forward on either team after McDavid/Drai and Matthews/Marner

190 pts in his last 194 games (past 3 seasons), and actually plays defense. It's just that no one watches Dallas.

edit: Woof, I missed the sarcasm. I think my faith in this site is too low.
