Colorado brought snow, but Dallas brought the heat—and now they’re skating on to the next round.
Game 7. One game to rule them all. And the Dallas Stars treated it like a final boss battle—with extra spice and a Texan swagger.
The Avalanche tried to roll into Dallas and freeze the vibe, but the Stars lit up the scoreboard like it was opening night at a barbecue joint. Final score? 4–2. Final mood? Unbothered, victorious, and a little petty.
Jake Oettinger was a wall in net. Not a brick wall, not a steel door—a fortress with Wi-Fi and a no-entry policy.
Jason Robertson decided the series wasn’t going to end in Denver tears. He buried pucks like they owed him rent.
Colorado? They gave it everything. MacKinnon skated like his controller was stuck on turbo. But sometimes effort meets a buzzsaw—and that buzzsaw had a Lone Star on its helmet.
The Stars kept answering every Avs surge with a response louder than a Texas touchdown celebration. Roope Hintz was everywhere. We’re checking to see if he cloned himself before puck drop.
And let’s just say, the Stars’ fourth goal was the mic drop. Colorado tried to rally, but it was too late—the Lone Star State closed the curtain.
The Avs head into summer asking, “What just happened?” while Dallas cruises into the next round like they never broke a sweat.
Game 7 delivered drama, heartbreak, and full-blown hockey cinema. Dallas just wrote the script and directed it.
