In a thrilling finish, Beleri Nechushkin scored with 15 seconds left in the third period to tie the game for the Colorado Avalanche, then sealed. The five-to-four shootout went over the Dallas Stars, snapping their 10-game winning streak. Kale Mocker, Nathan McKinnon and Martin Neckas also lit the LAN for Colorado, while the Stars got goals from Miro Heiskenin, Wyatt Johnston, Justin, Prikoian, and Jamie Ben. Avalanche goalie Mackenzie Blackwood was pulled after allowing four goals on 11 shots, but Scott Wedgewood came in and stopped all 10 shots he faced, including the shootout. Fans are buzzing about this match-up, calling it one of the best games of the season and a preview of Playoff Intensity. These two teens have clashed in the last two post-season with Dallas coming out on top of times, fueling a heated rivalry. The Central Division is dominating the Western Conference, with Colorado leading at 93 points,
Dallas at 86, and Minnesota at 84. The Playoff format means two of these top teens will face off early, which has everyone frustrated but guarantees fireworks. Meanwhile, Dallas's power play, second best in the league and nearly 30% kept rolling with a goal in their seventh-stray game. Still, blowing another late lead highlights a troubling pattern for the stars, heading into the stretch run. D&N is sponsored by our partner. Check out the episode description.
