This is a 10* BLOWOUT on the Colorado Avalanche.

After going down 3-1 in this series, Colorado has looked dominant by winning two straight.

Those two victories haven't been easy though and I think that Colorado is going to run out of gas here.

Note that Colorado is already down to its third string goaltender in Michael Hutchinson. Also note that Colorado suffered a couple of key injuries in Game 6, as Captain Gabriel Landeskog left in the second period with a leg injury and his status is unclear here.

Also Conor Timmins got injured in the second period and didn't return.

It's been a major disappointment for the Stars after holding a two-game lead, but this one sets up perfectly for them to dominate in from start to finish.

Despite losing in Game 6, I still give the nod in net to Stars' netminder Anton Khudobin in this matchup.

I'll also point out that Dallas is 7-2 in its last nine after back-to-back losses.

Great value here on the determined Stars, who I expect to take advantage of this now tired and under-manned Colorado side.

The play is Dallas!

Good luck, NP
