Following the frustrating loss in Edmonton, the Colorado Avalanche had an opportunity to turn the page against the Dallas Stars and another furious comeback looked possible again until they were thrawrted and had to settle for a disappointing 7-4 loss.
The Game
This important Central Division match got off to a good start for the home team as just two minutes after the puck dropped Sean Walker floated a shot from the blueline which fooled Stars netminder Jake Oettinger to give the Avalanche an early lead. Which was needed after Dallas put up 10 shots on goal after that score but Alexandar Georgiev was up to the task.
