  Speaker 1: Connor McGahee, and this is Colorado Avalanche Hockey. Tonight, the
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: abs are deep in the heart of Texas to begin
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: a home-and-home back-to-back with their Central Division rivals, the Dallas Stars. Well,
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: to say there is history between the Avalanche and Stars
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: would be an understatement. The North Stars became the Stars
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: before the Nordiques became the Avalanche.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: But after Colorado won the Cup in 1996.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: The Stars began to rise, winning their own in 1999
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: and eliminating the Avalanche in many a playoff series after.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: But ever since, the Avs have become Stanley Cup champions
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: two more times, and this year look to add their fourth,
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: with or without Dallas in their path. So put on
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: your listening sweaters for the Avs and Stars. Force of
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Nature versus Kindergarten Achievement Sticker. Live for your listening pleasure
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: around North America and around the world on the Altitude
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Sports Radio Network. He looks over his shoulder now behind
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: the avalanche net. Emerges right side and leads out Josh Manson.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: Who leads out? Marty Natchez. Down the left side into
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: the corner. Swung to the way by Natchez. Has it back.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: Passes behind McKinnon. But it's tipped in front.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Backhander from Lekkonen. He scores!
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: We're up all night to get lucky. First point in
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: three games for Arturi Lekkonen. But his 11th in 20
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: games versus the Dallas Dards. And it's a deflection off
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: a stick that floats over the shoulder of Jay Gottinger
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: and gives the Avalanche a 1-0 lead.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: As that wrist shot came through a screen.
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: And now we've got a fight. Svechkov is going. He's
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: going with Roderick Foxa. They're tangled up near side boards.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Svechkov trying to get loose right by Foxa. He's grabbing
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: Svechkov and he just throws him down to the ice.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: Left by Foxa. Left by Foxa.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: He's not letting Svechkov get a punch in. Now the
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: linesman come in. Another face-off win, Dallas. Haskin in for Robertson,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: down to the goal line, and Tyler Sagan.
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: Sagan in front off a leg and in. That's friendly fire.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: Off of Leckanen.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: So the unearned power play for Dallas gets their first
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: power play goal on home ice this season. Now for
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Jaden Schwartz, high in the.
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: Zone, looking for deflection. Got it.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: Parker Kelly is there. He's dragged down as well. Abs
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: may never get a power play ever again. Here comes Dallas.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Three on two the other way. Left side for Cabo Bianco.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Tries to center it.
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: Blocked. Nicholas Waugh has Marty Natchez ahead. Pushes it for Natchez. Onside.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Doesn't have a ton of space. He makes some room.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: Natchez spins loose.
• 2:42
  Speaker 2: Leaves it for Nathan McKinnon just off the bench. McKinnon.
• 2:45
  Speaker 2: Back for Natchez.
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: He scores!
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: It's a Marty party!
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: He put a rocket in the chamber and let it go.
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: My goodness, that was moving quickly.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: McKinnon was just off the bench, dropped it for Marty Natchez,
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: and it was in the back of the net before
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Ottinger even knew what happened. It started out, as we
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: look at the Ramos Law replay, Nicholas Waugh pushed it ahead.
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: Natchez dangled around two stars. McKinnon left it for Natchez,
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: and he sends a one-timer as a right-handed shot sticks
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: side on a left-handed catching Jay Gottinger. Colorado 2 and
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: the Stars 1.
• 3:30
  Speaker 2: Taves will get there.
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Oh, he got another fight. McKinnon's going to go right by.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: Who is that?
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: It's Ropey Hintz right by McKinnon, right by McKinnon. And
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: Hintz goes down to the ice like a.
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: Ton of bricks.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Second fight of the year by Nathan McKinnon, and he

  Speaker 1: tips will go to the box.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: Clock hasn't started yet. Now it goes. McKinnon over for Taves.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: Down low for Nazem Kadri. That missed. Kadri, with pressure coming,
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: has to toss it off the far wall and get
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: it back to Taves. McKinnon into the circle. Back for Taves.
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: He lets it go. Save made. Rebound.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: They score! It's another Marty party. His second two-goal game
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: of the season. Colorado strikes on the five-on-three. Nine seconds
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: left in the two-man advantage. And the power play is back, baby!
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: Natchez gets his second goal of the period. And Colorado

  Speaker 2: Kelly throws the hit. Stars out in front. They score.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: Short-handed, or excuse me, short side as Ropey Hintz got
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: it through a screen. And the frosted tip strike for
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: the Stars.
• 4:57
  Speaker 2: 3-2 with 16.43 to go in the third. Stars win it.
