Stars Score Four in Second Period, Defeat Avalanche 5-2

The Dallas Stars have a 2-0 series lead over the Colorado Avalanche.

Let me say that again.

The Dallas Stars, who were shutout 4-0 by Pavel Francouz in the round robin, have a 2-0 series lead over the top-seed Colorado Avalanche, favored by many to win the Stanley Cup.

Oh, and they’ve done it by outscoring them 10-5 in total.

The start of Game 2 was less than ideal for Dallas, who were absolutely smothered by the high-flying Avalanche. Colorado outshot Dallas 20-6 in the first 20 minutes alone, but only managed a single goal thanks to the mighty efforts of Anton Khudobin.
