The Dallas Stars will be playing a Game 7 against the Colorado Avalanche in the second round.
That fact alone should terrify most Stars fans. After all, Game 7s haven’t been kind to them since the turn of the century:
The Stars have never blown a 3-1 series lead since the franchise moved to Dallas, but they’ve also had some poor Game 7 results since the glory years of the late ’90s and early 2000s faded away.
The Stars have lost their past three Game 7s. The last win came in 2000 when they beat the Avalanche to advance to the Stanley Cup Final.
