It's April 4th. This is NHL News Today, powered by AI Everything Happening With Your Team. I'm Corey with The Story. Colorado Avalanche just blanked the Dallas Stars two goals to nothing on the road. Martin Nekka snagged the game winner with a slick redirect in the third period and added an assist, while Scott Wedgewood stood tall with 17, says for the shutout. That victory pushes Colorado's record to 50 wins, 15 losses, and 10 overtime losses, stretching their central division lead to eight points over Dallas. Both squads have locked in playoff spots, but the stars are stumbling at one win, two losses, and one overtime loss in their last four games. Dallas Goldie Casey to Smith turned aside 20 shots, including a huge breakaway stop, but Colorado's penalty kill went two for two, and kept the league's second best power play off the board. Miles Stone moment for Avalanche defenseman Brent Burns, who lay stuff for his 1000 straight game, joining Phil Kessel as the only guys in NHL.

History to hit that Mark Pure Ironman status as the Afs roll on.
