For the second time in less than a week, the Colorado Avalanche and Dallas Stars played each other for another preseason matchup. Dallas would end up winning this game by a final score of 4-2. Let’s break down all of the action from tonight.
First Period
There are three constants in life; death, taxes, and Matt Duchene scoring on the Avs. And that’s exactly who scored first in this game. This play initially started in Colorado’s offensive zone. During this play, Colorado ended up with four players deep in the zone trying to play the puck, leaving one defenseman alone at the top of the zone to defend, and leading to a three-on-one.
