Nathan MacKinnon and Artturi Lehkonen each had a goal and an assist for the Avalanche, who are the No. 3 seed from the Central Division. “I feel during the regular season and even this playoff we've been finding good ways to come back and win games when we're down in the game,” Georgiev said. Joe Pavelski had a goal and an assist, and Jason Robertson had two assists for the Stars, who are the No. 1 seed from the Central.
Colorado snapped its three-game losing streak to extend the second-round Western Conference Series.
Prior to the game, Avalanche forward Valeri Nichushkin was placed in Stage 3 of the NHL/NHLPA Player Assistance Program. Under the terms of the program, Nichushkin will be suspended without pay for a minimum of six months and then will be eligible to apply for reinstatement. “Val is obviously struggling with something," Colorado coach Jared Bednar said.
