Christopher Li+FollowBlackwood Shuts Down Stars in Game 1Wow, what a difference a year makes for the Avs! Coach DeBoer called out Mackenzie Blackwood as the real game-changer, and you could see why last night. The Stars just couldn’t solve him—23 saves and only a power play deflection got by. Dallas fans, are you worried about the losing streak now that Colorado’s got a legit netminder? The Avs didn’t have this kind of brick wall last playoffs. Can the Stars bounce back, or is Blackwood the X-factor? #GoStars #GoAvsGo #NHLPlayoffs #Blackwood #HockeyTalk #Sports70Share
