The Dallas Stars secure a 7-4 victory against the Colorado Avalanche, extending their lead in the Central Division. The Avalanche struggle without Mikko Rantanen.
DENVER, CO – APRIL 07: Dallas Stars center Logan Stankoven , Dallas Stars left wing Jamie Benn and Dallas Stars center Wyatt Johnston celebrate Johnston’s goal against Alexandar Georgiev in the third period at Ball Arena in Denver, Colorado on Sunday, April 07, 2024. Colorado Avalanche right wing Valeri Nichushkin and Colorado Avalanche center Casey Mittelstadt skate away from the celebration. The Avalanche lost 7-4.
This loss makes it likely the Avs will start the postseason against the Winnipeg Jets, and now they need to ensure Game 1 is at Ball Arena and not in Southern Manitoba. The Jets could tie them at 102 points with a win Monday at Nashville. They are at Ball Arena on Saturday for what could be a huge contest.
Dallas had 41 scoring chances, including 20 of the high-danger variety, in the first two periods, according to Natural Stat Trick. The most the Avs had allowed in any full game before this was 44 scoring chances and 22 high-danger chances .`“We just weren’t good enough defensively,” Bednar said. “I don’t love the way we’re checking right now, but I think it’s certainly curable.
Sean Walker put the Avs on the board just 1:59 into the game with a harmless-looking shot from the right point. The Stars looked a step ahead for the first half of the opening period before the Avs caught up. Benn drew a double-minor for high-sticking on Walker, and later in the period a slashing call on Cale Makar. The Stars got goals from Roope Hintz, Tyler Seguin and Mason Marchment to open a 5-2 advantage.
