The Dallas Stars evened up their first-round NHL playoff series with the Wild on Wednesday, bouncing back from a Game 1 loss.
This time, the Stars adjusted, moving Tyler Seguin to the first line alongside Hintz and Jason Robertson.
While the Stars didn’t exactly match the Wild’s physicality, they did punish Minnesota for its aggressiveness, going 3 of 6 on the power play.The Stars blitzed Wild goalie Marc-Andre Fleury for seven goals on 31 shots. Minnesota coach Dean Evason opted to go with Fleury despite a standout 51-save performance by Filip Gustavsson in the 3-2 double-overtime win in Game 1.
Hintz gave the Stars an early lead on a shorthanded breakaway with Wyatt Johnston off for hooking Sam Steel. Seguin made it 2-0 on a power-play redirection, normally the domain of Pavelski.Oskar Sundqvist cut the Stars lead in half late in the first period before things took an out-of-control turn in the second period.
The Stars built the lead to 4-1 early in the third period when captain Jamie Benn converted from the left circle on the power play.

But that shows you momentum in the playoffs.”Photos: Hats off to Roope Hintz and the Dallas Stars' Game 2 victory
