The Stars lived up to their reputation as a relentless road team in Game 3. Can they do it again? Wes and Mark discuss it.

The unstoppable road team met the immoveable home team, and we saw who blinked first. The Dallas Stars copped a big win off the Colorado Avalanche over the weekend, and now, it seems, we’re getting somewhere.

It’s OK, Stars fans, you still have time to panic. But Wes and Mark took a long look at a game the Avs were supposed to win, on paper…and they liked what they saw. No, really. In this edition, they look at how the Victory Green Gang righted the ship at home and took away the game Colorado wanted to play in their own barn. And, as always, they have ideas about how to make it continue, because something something Big Hockey Brains.

You already know a big Nate MacKinnon game is coming. The question is, how do you prepare for it? We have answers…because we’re Stargazing After Dark. And now you can, too, thanks to BetOnline.

First-Round Preview: Stars vs. Avalanche Stargazing: A Dallas Stars Puckcast | Defending Big D

The Dallas Stars won their position in the 2025 Stanley Cup race relatively early. Then they skidded into the end of the regular season on a seven-game losing streak unprecedented during head coach Pete DeBoer's tenure. So what happens now that this team is supposed to be all in? To survey the first-round ice, Stargazing welcomed back longtime Colorado Avalanche writer Evan Liu, now of Hockey Mountain High. He sat down with Wes and Mark to talk about forward depth, netminder performance, the playoffs return of Tyler Seguin and Gabriel Landeskog, and why whatever happens…won't be a surprise. So who you got? Let’s talk about it. It’s Stargazing time! What’s on your mind? Share it at Defending Big D. (We’re there for you. Really!) And please don’t forget to rate, review and share.
