The statistics further highlight how well-rounded Dallas's performance was against Colorado. With a total of 34 shots on goal and converting 5 into scores, they had a shooting percentage of around 15 percent which is commendable. Their power play opportunities were capitalized with efficiency; scoring once out of two chances shows their preparedness for such moments.


On defense, Dallas was equally impressive with goaltending playing a crucial role in securing this win; saving 24 out of 25 shots aimed at them reflects high proficiency between posts ensuring that only one puck found its way past them throughout all three periods.

They managed to score once from their total attempts which wasn't enough against an opponent like Dallas who seemed determined from start till end.
