The Pittsburgh Penguins and the Dallas Stars take the ice in an out-of-conference matchup

Roope Hintz - Spoils shutout and ends slumpHintz scored a goal on four shots in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Jets.
ImpactHintz tallied with 1:22 left in the contest to prevent Connor Hellebuyck from earning a third straight shutout. The goal was Hintz's first since Oct. 24 -- he went four games without a point, including both contests in his native country of Finland last weekend against the Panthers. The 27-year-old is at five goals, nine points, 30 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-1 rating through 13 appearances in a somewhat modest start to 2024-25.

Casey DeSmith - Perfect in reliefDeSmith stopped all 10 shots he faced in relief of Jake Oettinger in Saturday's 4-1 loss to the Jets.
ImpactThe Jets did all their damage in the first half of the game, and they didn't test DeSmith much over the last 30-plus minutes after the Stars made the change in net. This was DeSmith's fifth outing of the year, and he's posted a 1.79 GAA and .929 save percentage. He's still not expected to play much, but he could push for a larger role if Oettinger continues to struggle against tough opponents. DeSmith has often started about once a week so far anyway, in an effort to keep Oettinger fresh in the starting role.

Neal Pionk - Logs assist in Saturday's winPionk had an assist in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Stars.
ImpactPionk's hot October has given way to a quieter November -- he has two helpers over his last five games. That was likely to happen anyway, as the 29-year-old is a solid scorer but certainly not a point-per-game threat. He has three goals, 11 assists, 33 shots on net, 27 blocked shots, 20 hits and a plus-10 rating through 15 outings overall. Pionk should continue to offer strong non-scoring production even if his offense fades further.

Rasmus Kupari - Finds twine SaturdayKupari scored a goal in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Stars.
ImpactThe goal was Kupari's first scoring contribution since his tally Opening Night versus the Oilers. The 24-year-old has played regularly in a fourth-line role, but he's had trouble getting involved in the offense while averaging 10:04 of ice time per game. The Finn has two goals, 19 shots on net, 10 hits and a minus-3 rating across 14 appearances, and he could eventually lose his place in the lineup to David Gustafsson.

Nikolaj Ehlers - Strikes on power play in winEhlers scored a power-play goal on three shots in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Stars.
ImpactEhlers had been held off the scoresheet in the previous two games, though he opened November with six points over two contests. The 28-year-old winger is up to nine tallies, 18 points (five on the power play), 42 shots on net and a plus-12 rating through 15 outings overall. The Jets are off to a record-breaking start at 14-1-0, and it's come with contributions throughout the lineup, including an excellent showing from Ehlers on the second line.
