What We Saw, What It Felt Like: Stars-Avalanche, Game 6

This nearly ended one overtime period sooner. In the first session, Cale Makar shoved Matt Duchene into Avalanche goalie Alexander Georgiev, Mason Marchment shot the puck into the vacant net, and the Stars should have been celebrating a victory. The NHL issued a wordy, yet unconvincing explanation of why the goal didn't count and defended the initial no-goal call for goalie interference. Had Colorado won, this would have been one of those all-time debates about a call that impacted the balance of a series and potentially the entire postseason.
