Game Summary
On October 14, 2026, the Dallas Stars defeated the Colorado Avalanche 3-2 in a shootout at Ball Arena. Roope Hintz scored the deciding goal in the fourth round, and Jason Robertson also converted for Dallas in the skills competition.
Miro Heiskanen tied the game 1-1 at 15:03 of the second with a wrist shot top shelf from the left dot on a feed from Mikko Rantanen. Arttu Hyry gave Dallas a 2-1 lead at 1:20 of the third on a short-handed breakaway after intercepting Cale Makar at the blue line.
Gabriel Landeskog opened the scoring at 4:55 of the second, tipping Nazem Kadri's shot past Casey DeSmith after Colorado had two first-period goals overturned. Brock Nelson tied it 2-2 at 8:21 when a rebound off Thomas Harley landed on his stick for a wrist shot into an open net.
DeSmith made 25 saves for his 100th NHL win as the Stars improved to 3-3-1. Scott Wedgewood had 20 saves for Colorado, which earned a point at 4-2-1. Dallas split its home-and-home with the Avalanche one night after a 3-2 loss at home, and Nazem Kadri scored Colorado's lone shootout goal before Hintz beat Wedgewood.
