Dallas turns off the Northern lights with a 4-2 series win. No turbulence, just domination
Well, Winnipeg — it was a good flight while it lasted.
But in Game 6 on Saturday night, the Dallas Stars said, “Tray tables up, seatbacks forward,” and proceeded to ground the Jets with a clean, efficient, and no-nonsense 4-1 win to close the series.
Dallas came in like a team with one mission: ruin every plan the Jets had. And oh boy, mission very much accomplished.
Jake Oettinger built a wall in net that not even a direct order from Canadian airspace could penetrate. The guy was cooler than a Zamboni in January.
On offense, the Stars were slicker than Winnipeg sidewalks in winter. Jason Robertson got spicy, Roope Hintz delivered the sauce, and Jamie Benn played like a guy who’d seen enough of this round and had a beach chair waiting in the next one.
The Jets? They tried. But trying doesn’t count in elimination games.
Winnipeg fans watched their team get shut down harder than a Tim Hortons after midnight. The crowd started with hope, ended with headshakes and sad poutine.
So now the Stars move on, looking dangerous, disciplined, and deeply uninterested in letting anyone else steal their spotlight.
As for the Jets? Time to de-ice the golf bags.
