NHL Game 6 Highlights | Stars vs. Avalanche – May 1, 2025

earlier he got moved to the top line with Grantland and Hansen is starting to really come together. Ben Johnston to Donov start the game for Dallas Law with Lindell and Cece stand in deep by Donov the car kept it away from Johnston carried out by Landers and you could hear the cheers from the crowd here in Denver. Y cross heights score deflected off the stick of the defenseman Lyn Del and the Avalanche take a one- nothing lead in game six beats up does it carries the puck through the neutral zone and then it’s that east west play once they get over the blue line force on to move yeah it’s a fortunate uh bounce off of Lindell and of Lushkin. But you get the goalender moving, Jody, and good things happen. And a good start for the Adelaide. And the middle lane drive of Landisk opens up that scene behind the defenders to make that cross ice pass. 10 and a half remaining. First period, one- nothing lead for the Avalanche. Given away by Coyle. Petravic is stopped by Blackwood. Then Petravic sends it back out for Bissell. A turnover by Charlie Coyle. And Petravic had Blackwood. I mean he got center by Jack Drury. Now Devonte dropping it back off. Shot by Drury. Stop. Rebound Parker. Kelly misses the net. The juice on it. Deflected by Lingren. Cleared out by Coyle. At center by Cece away Drew with a shot that’s thrown aside by Otinger. The pressure is creating turnovers. That just happened along the wall. C turned over. Good opportunity. and Nas in behind the net. Centering pass and a save on Lechanin. Paves in deep with Babushkin and looking to work it free. Comes loose to Lechanin. Lechin sends it back around and now off of the car looking down by Lin. Scores two [Applause] [Music] nothing. Bounce is a team that gets the bounces and Colorado is winning those battles here along the wall. They’re able to come up with the puck. McCarth fans on it. You think it’d be a bad thing, but Lean in his first on the scene. Beats Cece to the puck. A fortuitous bounce on the first goal and a fortunate banning of the puck on this one from a car. It goes right to Lechan. No chance for Oxford and Leaning’s going to be there in a competitive situation when you’re facing elimination. Well, Pete Dbor mentioned this morning he knew he was going to get the best game from Colorado of the series. They their their season is on the line and they did it in many different ways, but it started in the Dzone just like this. Here comes the chin to score the first goal for the Y. There’s the car moving in with a shot that’s stopped by a big save to Blackwood. The stick is behind him to the right out in front. Save, rebound, score. So, the Stars capitalize. Rope hits just 22 seconds into the power play. Big save at the other end a moment ago and it’s now a two-1 game. They get to work and they work it down low and Colorado just never comfortable the minute this puck gets down low. This the play out front. Uh Blackwood’s able to make the save. There was an initial play even before this when uh when Blackwood lost his stick and and I got to imagine Jody no stick for Blackwood played a role and not really with Washington and Montreal. I thought they put up a really good fight but you know Well, here comes Granlin moving in. He scores. Granland ties the game at two. Two goals early in the second period for Dallas. Off the stick of BAR comes out from behind the net. Shot through a screen by McKinnon gets blocked. 32 Colorado and the Avalanche come right back. The shot by Mor deflected in by Nis to get inside in front of the net of of Aer here. And they do a good job on this play. I love McKinnon’s play right here. Just gets it to the net. It’s a simple play, but it causes some chaos. And there, what a pass back. The battle in front between Lechin and Leouchin. Hints back on it for the Stars. Now Rantin who has two points tonight for Hint. Hint moves in with a shot. He scores. Rope Hint ties the game at three. Rantin will pick up his third point. Play by Miko Rant in here. Watch the patience by Ranton to hold off Gerard. Wait for Hins to come underneath. hits him with speed and the left hand shot coming down the right side. The puck sees the far side of the net. It can be a difficult save for a goalender especially when you penalty was called not long thereafter. Lent to the first Dallas call and now a two-on-one for the Avalanche. Here’s Nious off the post on the feed from Drew across and that shot missed the net. Lingren with it again. Save byer. Traffic in front. Another save byer. And will now McKinnon. McKinnon. Cross size for Taves. Down low. Nes back in front. Another opportunity for Mard. Here’s Rantin who has three points in the period. So does Hint. Gard by Brandling. H over to play the puck. Her rant in calling for it. He scores. Mo Rantin and Roe Hint both pick up their fourth point of this period, tying an NHL postseason record. And the Stars, we heard him yell rope from all the way up here in the press box. Unbelievable. Unbelievable. You’re right. You could hear it. He wanted that puck. Page was able to gather it. The puck battle along the wall. Randon wide open. And how about that? He just sifts it on through the through the legs on the ice right here. He wants it. McKinnon not able to get back. A wide open that second period. Unbelievable. And rampant in doing it against his former team. Oh boy, that’s going to feel good. I bet. Said in deep by Leookin. Gerard over for Colorado. loops it ahead for Chuskin with Landisk. Here comes Tro Nelson back out for a shot by Landis and then Chuskin [Applause] [Music] scores. Second of the night for Duskin ties the game at four. This time the Avalanche do a good job of exiting the zone and it’s a shot for a rebound by Landisk. He’s intentionally Changes on both sides. Those skaters on the ice. Pump back to the wall by McKinnon. Alabkin for Dallas up the middle off the stick with Deck. Zinsky back the other way. Here’s McKinnon. McKinnon putting wide on the booster with a centering pass. Regret by Lickin. He bounced in and the Athletics back on top. and able to possess the puck here. Going wide. Looks like he’s checked. No chance. He’s able to get this puck towards the net. It’ll be McKinnon’s goal. I believe bounced it off Black Wall of Dallas. You can’t make this stuff up. I don’t know if Leinan touched it. Wow. After McKinnon did. Doesn’t get any crazier than that. But look at this. Looks like nothing’s going to happen, but McKinnon, his skill and power and speed to hang on to that puck creates the opportunity and then some craziness. Avalanche control sent down to the empty net and [Music] in 64. into the open cage. Well, Manson had a great chance earlier in the game. Rang it off the crossbar. They will have an opportunity on [Applause] Saturday. Empty net [Applause] again. It is now 74. not scored a goal all series, two assists in this game as his first. The stars will be on home ice on Saturday at the Outlands with a big performance from their [Applause] stars team five. [Music]

Martin Necas had a goal and an assist, Valeri Nichushkin scored twice, and the Colorado Avalanche forced Game 7 against Dallas with a 7-4 win over the Stars in Game 6.
