However, shortly after the confrontation, Mikko Rantanen tripped Valeri Nichushkin, causing a 4-on-4 situation. Nichushkin used the defensive hit from the Stars area to hit straight for Jake Oettinger, cleverly falling off the first goal of the game. With two minutes left in the first stage, Colin Blackwell tripped Nathan Mackinnon and threw the Avalanche into the power play. Stars successfully killed the free throw, and the first stage ended with a 1-0 lead in the avalanche.
