At the trade deadline, the Dallas Stars went out looking for a shutdown defenseman who could stop high-flying offenses. They brought in Chris Tanev and thus far, he has been able to bring that.
However, in game four of their series against the Colorado Avalanche, Tanev had to leave prematurely after a massive hit from Ross Colton.
Currently, the Avalanche are down 3-1 in their series against the Stars and are fighting for their seasons in game five. At the moment, they are down 1-0 about halfway through the first period.
