A recent discussion on the internet has stirred debate about a massive trade proposal that would send Roope Hintz to a rival team in exchange for a top forwards, along with draft picks or prospects.
The idea quickly became a trending topic on Reddit, r/DallasStars, where fans discussed potential packages that could include players like Zach Hyman or Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, along with a mid-round pick, as part of a blockbuster deal
Hintz, who carries a cap hit of $8.45 million per season, has been a major contributor in Dallas, but his contract and recent inconsistency have led some fans to argue that he might be the most logical trade chip this summer.
Why a Roope Hintz trade for Edmonton Oilers' assets could solve the Dallas Stars' cap and depth issues
Supporters of the idea argue that moving Hintz would give Dallas the cap flexibility to extend younger stars like Jason Robertson and Thomas Harley, while also adding immediate scoring depth from Edmonton's system.
One fan noted on Reddit:
«Trading Hintz now, while his value is still high, lets Dallas free space and bring in a package that helps the roster long term.»
Another added:
«If the return is a younger forward and a pick, Jim Nill could balance the cap and keep Dallas competitive for years.»
I think this type of move fits the way Dallas has approached the offseason, as the Stars already offloaded Matt Dumba in a trade for a younger player and a draft pick.
If Nill sees this kind of deal as a way to clear space while staying in the playoff mix, a Roope Hintz trade could set the tone for the rest of the summer.
