Blackwood allowed fluky goals in the first and last minutes of the opening period Monday night in a Game 5 loss. His Colorado Avalanche had a chance to come back after spotting the Dallas Stars the first three goals, but he spent the third period watching from the bench after allowing five goals on 18 shots.

Wyatt Johnson scored off of the opening draw just nine seconds into the game and the Dallas Stars never looked back as they handled the Colorado Avalanche 6-2 in Game 5.
