The Dallas Stars won 5-4 against the Colorado Avalanche on Sunday, taking a win from reaching the finals of the North American Hockey League (NHL) Western Main Group.
Radek Faksa helped his team with one goal and two assists, which may be there for the first time since 2008 in the duel that decides the main group lead.
Also one step away from the western finale is the Vegas Golden Knights, which beat the Vancouver Canucks 5-3, including Max Pacioretty, who scored two goals and a pass.
In the East, the situation for the New York Islanders is similar as they beat the Philadelphia Flyers 3-2 and lead to 3-1. Brock Nelson scored two goals and Thomas Greiss helped his team to victory with 36 defenses.
The regular season of the NHL was interrupted on March 12 due to a coronavirus epidemic, with the playoffs starting on August 11 behind closed gates at two venues (Toronto and Edmonton) in complete isolation, officially called a "bubble."
