Avalanche fans might feel the heat after their team dropped 4 of the last 5 games, letting the Dallas stars close in on the division lead. This tightening race could actually benefit Colorado heading into the playoffs by adding some much needed urgency. The stars have been unstoppable lately, riding a 9 win, 1 loss, 1 overtime loss streak since coming back from the Olympic break on February 25th. In a normal year, their record would top the division, but they've been chasing a historically strong Avalanche squad. For Colorado it's been a shift from dominance, with a 4 win, 5 loss, 1 overtime loss run in recent games. Fans and players alike see this as a wake up call, turning pressure into motivation instead of coasting on talent alone. Deathspark could prevent complacency, especially after a big early lead slipped away. The team hasn't faced real stakes in a while, and now they're pushing harder to reclaim momentum.
