What can the Stars expect from Arttu Hyry?

A look at the Finnish forward, plus some housekeeping notes to make your life easier as a Shap Shots reader.

First two housekeeping notes.

1. Yesterday was a bit hectic here, our dog got sick and had to go the vet. She’s got pancreatitis, but should be ok and woke up feeling more like herself again. That’s why writing today’s piece was delayed.

2. To help streamline the readership experience, we are working with subsections this season for Stars and Red Wings readers, the two largest contingencies on this site. Going forward, stories that are only Red Wings or Stars centered, will only be going to those who have opted in for Stars or Red Wings coverage. There is some cross over, of course, so those will still go out to wider list.

To do that, you just need to go to your account settings and check the boxes for which emails you want to receive. All Shap Shots subscribers will have full access to everything on the website, but this should help de-clutter your inbox if you are a Stars/Red Wings fan that only wants to read about your specific team.

You, of course, can click the box to receive emails about both teams.

Here is what it will look like when you go to account settings, you’ll just click the boxes for emails you want to receive.

Just trying to make the user experience as ideal as possible, if you have any questions let me know.

With that out of the way, let’s get to today’s first piece, which is Stars centric, and focuses on Arttu Hyry, who was the Stars best player at the Traverse City prospect showcase and is in the mix for an NHL roster spot according to Stars GM Jim Nill.
