The Dallas Stars look to eliminate the Colorado Avalanche on Wednesday night in Game 5 of their second round series.
The Dallas Stars go for their fourth straight win on Wednesday night when they take on the Colorado Avalanche in Game 5. The Stars lost the opener at home, but have since won there in a row and are a game away from making it back to the Western Conference Finals. They lost in the finals last season to the Vegas Golden Knights and are looking to get another opportunity to get to the Stanley Cup Finals. First, though, they need to get by an Avalanche team that they have outscored 14-5 in the last three games. They have been dominate in the last two games, as they have given up just two combined goals. Wednesday they are back home and looking to finish off Colorado.

The Avalanche, though, are looking to keep their playoff hopes alive and force a Game 6 back in Colorado on Friday night.
They are going to have to get their offense going, but it won’t be easy as they have lost Valeri Nichushkin for the rest of the playoffs. Nichushkin was the second leading scorer for the Avalanche during the playoffs, but has been suspended for at least six months after being place in Stage 3 of the NHL/NHL Players’ Association player assistance program.
It is a tough blow for an Avalanche team that has got to find a way to get the puck to the back of the net. If they can’t get their offense going, then they are going to be headed home for the summer.
Regional restrictions may apply.
