By Hockey in 60
Dallas Stars won despite being outshot 32–24. Colorado Avalanche generated more shots on target, but the volume advantage did not translate into a better result. Dallas Stars scored on 20.8% of its shots, compared with 9.4% for Colorado Avalanche. Those are team scoring rates, not goalie save percentages; empty-net goals can affect them. The totals establish a difference in conversion, but cannot separate finishing, chance quality and goaltending.
Colorado Avalanche converted 1 of 5 power plays (20.0%); Dallas Stars converted 2 of 4 power plays (50.0%). The 1-goal net power-play edge accounted for part of the 2-goal final margin. This identifies special teams as a meaningful scoring difference, without proving how the game would have unfolded with different penalties.
Dallas Stars won 57.5% of faceoffs. That is a clear edge in restarts, but faceoff percentage should not be treated as a possession percentage: the totals do not show where the draws occurred or what happened immediately afterwards.
