Roope Hintz scored a nice underpowered goal against Nashville. NHL can be watched on Elisa Viihde Viaplay and v Sport channels.
Roope Hintz was the big hero of the Dallas Stars in the NHL round of the night.
The Finnish center scored 2+1 as the Stars defeated the Nashville Predators 5–1. The second of the goals came from an underpowered effort, when Hintz, who had a whiplash, was able to drive through. Juuse Saros was powerless on the Preds goal.
Miro Heiskanen gave excellent fire support by collecting the powers 1+1 from the match. Mikael Granlund had an assist on Nashville’s lone.
The Finnish success of two goals was also seen in New York. Islanders Robin Salo scored twice as the team defeated the Anaheim Ducks 7–1. 24-year-old Salo doubled his number of goals last season in one match.
