Better team won this game

Goalie counts as "team" so Otter counts in this. What were the SOG stats? Didn't catch the final count. Otter didn't have his head in this game to keep the Avs on the ropes the way the rest of the team did. Forechecking, backchecking, jumping on loose pucks... Dallas had the momentum the entire night. Goaltending didn't keep up, and instead was the weak point in soft plays that proved crucial in an important Gm 1

Avs only winning by one in OT after all those days off doesn't look good for them against a team that came out and posted a big lead after a hard-fought 7 game series


Y’all giving up 4 after we gave up 3 doesn’t look good. Shut up.

It was clear the Avs came out rusty and sloppy in the first period after all that time off. Thankfully it only lasted 1 period before they got back to normal.

I went to bed at 3-0 Stars and woke up to this.

100% didn't take a dive. 100% did effect the outcome of the game. Enjoy your win. We'll play it back in a couple days. Avs only winning by one in OT after all those days off doesn't look good for them against a team that came out and posted a big lead after a hard-fought 7 game series. Colorado shoulda won this game 4-1, maybe 4-2.


It's going to be a long series for you if you're going to melt so hard about a call like that. In no way did the 4 on 4 impact the outcome of the game. If you're going to melt, why don't you focus on how the Stars dominated OT but couldn't end it?

If you're going to tick-tack criticize every call, Dallas shouldn't have had a 5 on 3 in the first as the Mikko call was soft. You can do that all day long. Thing should tend to even out, which they did. Both teams will have questionable calls for/against and life will go on.

Dallas “ had the momentum the whole night” ? lol. When the Avs scored 3 in the second period? When Dallas got off maybe 5 shots in 25 minutes of hockey and seemed to be allergic to the Avs zone? C”Mon. You lost game one at home to a team you had 3-0 after one. That’s not a loss, that’s a collapse. Preserve your dignity, take the L and see you Thursday.

FTR, I picked Dallas prior to the season and prior to the playoffs to win the cup on this thread. So I know who you guys are. I don’t think you can say the same about us.

Still like Dallas in the series but brutal loss. How the f are the Rangers up 2-0? guess Igor is the main reason but the Canes were built to beat the Rangers. Make it make sense

Igor is playing lights out, but they're also on a streak of something like 19 straight penalty kills, while their power play is on fire.

Yeah and Canes PK getting worked. They’re just a superior 5v5 team and had the number 1 PK, but alas here we are. Kudos to the Rags.

No lead is safe against the Avs. They are scoring at an amazing clip. Good to see all those Stars retreads scoring against their former team. Cogs with the outlet pass assist on the OT winner.

That embellishment call lol. Why, I’ve never seen such an obvious flop. Truly outrageous and an affront to the dignity of the sport. All Dallas fans should feel deep shame. God bless that brave and courageous referee.

I'm not worried. Stars went down 0-2 to a better team in Vegas and won the series.

Sucks they blew a 3-0 lead but a couple of soft penalties lets the Avs back into it.

Tell me you don’t watch much hockey without telling me you don’t watch much hockey. You need to understand this; the Avs can play bad and still win. As you saw last night. Wait until we get cranking.

This is about as dumb of a statement as it gets. The Avs are a better team than Vegas, without question.

Also, we're the best team in the league at home and y'all wouldn't have an extra day to adjust to the altitude. You do NOT want to go down 0-2 to the Avs and turn it over to their home ice.

ive always said, no team with Matt Duchene on it will ever win anything.

funny how avs traded him away in 2017, and look what happened to them.

Nichuskin has 8 goals in 6 games. Thanks, Dallas. Enjoy the figure skater Duschene.

Panthers tie it up early in the second.
