The Stars overcame a two-goal deficit to beat the Colorado Avalanche 4-2 on Saturday night to wrap up the first-round Western Conference playoff series.

It wasn’t a handshake line at the end of this remarkable seven-game series for Mikko Rantanen. It was a hug line.

The Colorado Avalanche entered Game 7 against the Dallas Stars on Saturday night with a chance to snap a six-game losing streak in Game 7's. That did not happen. When all was said and done, the Avalanche blew a 2-0 lead, giving up four goals in the third period. Colorado's season ended with a heartbreaking defeat.
