Stars win 5-4 in a shootout!

Jason Robertson and Mikko Rantanen score goals in the shootout for Dallas, while Jake Oettinger stops Victor Olofsson and Nathan MacKinnon.

Val Nichushkin scored the lone shootout goal for Colorado.

Great start the regular season.

Jason Robertson beats Scott Wedgewood on the first attempt of the shooting...

He's so good, it's just not fair!!
owennewkirk.bsky.social
What a save by Jake Oettinger on Necas in overtime!

Otter playing like he wants to be the Team USA starter in the Olympics.
owennewkirk.bsky.social
This has been a fabulously entertaining hockey game. So much so, the players decided to give us bonus hockey!

Off we go to overtime, tied at four.
owennewkirk.bsky.social
Dazzling glove save by Jake Oettinger to thwart a wide open shot by Jack Drury. Even got the little puck toss to the circle afterwards.

(You know that one felt good!)
owennewkirk.bsky.social
Tied up, yet again.

Nathan MacKinnon scores a power play goal on a one-timer from the left circle during the final minute of the Avs 4-minute double minor on Lyubushkin for high sticking.

4-4
owennewkirk.bsky.social
OH BABY, WHAT A GOAL!

Wyatt Johnston blocks a shot in his own zone ,races up the ice and then scores on the breakaway.

That's his second goal of the year.

4-3 Stars
owennewkirk.bsky.social
Well, that was quick!

Avs tie the game in the opening minute of the third period, Nathan MacKinnon finds Artturi Lehkonen, literally in the crease, for the back-door tap-in.

3-3

Stars back in front!

Jason Robertson tips a Thomas Harley point shot on a face off win by Roope Hintz. That's Robertson's second goal of the season.

3-2 Dallas
owennewkirk.bsky.social
TIE GAME!

Nathan Bastian scores his first goal as a Dallas Star, parked at the top of the crease, set up by Esa Lindell.

2-2
owennewkirk.bsky.social
Gavin Brindley scores his first career NHL goal - absolutely unmarked at the top of the crease. Poor defensive coverage by the Stars, great pass by Victor Olofsson.

2-1 Avalanche
owennewkirk.bsky.social
Justin Hyrckowian drops Ross Colton with a HUGE left hand after Colton got a heavy hit on Miro Heiskanen behind the Dallas net and Hryckowian took exception to that.
owennewkirk.bsky.social
Martin Necas ties the game, lifting the puck over Jake Oettinger, who had to go post-to-post to cover the snappy cross-ice pass by Nathan MacKinnon.

1-1

Stars strike first!

Nils Lundkvist drives back the defense, Mikko Rantanen drops it back to the high slot and Thomas Harley pounds one home for his first goal of the year.

1-0 Dallas
owennewkirk.bsky.social
The puck goes in the Avalanche net, but it won't count.

The Stars were in a delayed offside position as the dump-in ricocheted off a seam in the boards and goes into the open goal with Wedgewood in the trapezoid.

Weird, wild stuff!

Glen Gulutzan confirmed the Stars will have the same lineup tonight in Denver as Thursday at Winnipeg.

Jake Oettinger will start in goal against our ol' pal Scott Wedgewood.

Curious to see how Gully organizes his forward lines to start tonight after a bit of shuffling Thursday.
