The Colorado Avalanche dominated the Dallas Stars with a 5-1 victory, extending their winning streak against the Stars to three games. Nathan MacKinnon and Andrew Cogliano shined with goals, while Alexandar Georgiev made 33 saves. The Avs now trail the Stars by two points in the standings.
Avalanche score on the power play after a series of Mrazek saves.
MacKinnon (left) and Bedard (right). MacKinnon has the advantage on speed and using speed bursts in the game. Bedard still needs to develop the speed aspect of the game. #Avs #Blackhawks #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado @TheRinkChi https://t.co/lvuGJ5Pxt9
1st period impressions: #Avs got off to a slow start with the #Blackhawks starting strong. Avs need to shut down Bedard with that wicked shot of his but keep driving to the Hawks net. Keep your head up when shooting too #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado @TheRinkChi https://t.co/j07nGkouJU
1st intermission: Avalanche 1, Blackhawks 0 Hawks controlled a lot of that period but couldn't score. Avs controlled the final two minutes and did score. Shots on goal are 13-10 CHI
The Avalanche lead the Blackhawks 1-0 after one period. Hawks up 13-10 in shots on goal.
Zach Parise gets his second of the year after all the hard work from former Blackhawk Jack Johnson. Avs are up 1-0 #Blackhawks #GoAvsGo #Avs @TheRinkColorado @TheRinkChi
GOAL, Avalanche. Hawks trail 1-0. Beauvillier bodied off the puck too easily and Parise scores on the ensuing 2-on-1.
#Avs finally starting to get some pressure on the #Blackhawks so far the hawks are holding their own. #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado @TheRinkChi

Andrew Cogliano and Nathan MacKinnon scored 49 seconds apart to help Colorado pull away in the second period, Alexandar Georgiev stopped 33 shots and the Avalanche cruised to a 5-1 win over the Dallas Stars. https://t.co/ZqBCf8dOyP
Make that 29 straight home games with Nathan MacKinnon notching at least one point. And three straight Avs victories over the Dallas Stars. From @cmasisak22 https://t.co/Hz8ZrQ19sU
A 3-0 record against a team you could very well face in round one of the playoffs doesn't look bad at all, and may matter a lot when it comes to home-ice advantage come April. Georgiev, Fourth Line Lead Avalanche To Another Win Over Stars https://t.co/GbBMeG9L0c
The Avs are now 3-0 against the Stars this season and have one more left against them this season. They are now 2 points out of first place #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado
FINAL: Avs win 5-1, improve to 3-0-0 against Dallas this season. They trail the Stars by two points with a game in hand and a 32-26 advantage in RWs (the tiebreaker). Dallas hosts Winnipeg Thursday. Avs @ Chicago.
The Avalanche will move to 3-0 against the Stars this season. We’ll see if that makes the difference in the Central Division standings come April. One more game left between the teams.
Joe Pavelski heads to the box for hooking and the Avs are on their 2nd PP of the night. They are 1/1 so far #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado
2nd period impressions: All 3 Finnish skaters have a goal for the #Avs tonight. Keep the pressure up and play 60 minutes. Avs need to shut down the top of the slot, have left it wide open for Dallas all night long. Close it up and life is #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado https://t.co/P9eHK9aaG6
Nathan MacKinnon scores 49 seconds after Cogliano does to make it 4-1. Must have been that "Angry Skating" #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado
Coglian with his second point of the night. He intercepts the pass in the neutral zone and runs the puck in himself to make it 3-1, Wagner gets his first point as an Avalanche (again) #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado
Nathan MacKinnon also remains on a heater, although that's more of an evergreen situation. Backhander up under the bar from in tight. This 2nd period was all Stars for about six minutes. It's now 4-1 #Avs
Aaaand MacKinnon makes it 4-1. Avs have a real chance to step on the Stars throats here, who played last night. Georgiev deserves a lot of credit so far, because the Stars were coming to start this period and he held them off.
Andrew Cogliano is on a heater. Just snapped one over Oettinger's shoulder. Goal and an assist for him tonight. 3-1 #Avs Seven points in his past 12 games for Cogliano.
