Tyler Seguin spoiled the return of Gabriel Landeskog to the Avalanche lineup after three years, scoring at 5:31 of overtime to win Game 3, 2-1, at Ball Arena in Denver, giving the Stars a 2-1 series lead.
Terrific plays by both Mason Marchment and former Avalanche star Mikko Rantanen to earn assists.
There was high drama at the end of regulation and the beginning of overtime, as the Avalanche had a four-minute power play after a high stick drew blood, Jake Oettinger made some tough saves and the Stars defended well for two-plus minutes that remained at teh start of overtime.
Despite the loss, Valeri Nichushkin scored a sensational goal on a superb individual effort:
Terrific series. Any fan of hockey had to be happy to see Landeskog make his way back to the NHL. Game 3 is Saturday. Tune in.
