Excellent team goal by Dallas
The Dallas Stars tied the series with the St. Louis Blues at one after a 4-2 road victory and the top moment of the game goes to young Finnish defenseman Miro Heiskanen who scored from a great team play to make it 2-0 for the Stars. You can see the goal here.
This one's worth a second look. And maybe a third… #StanleyCup

An unforgettable moment
The San Jose Sharks opened its series with Colorado Avalanche with a 5-2 home win and a young fan will never forget the moment when she got a little present from Brent Burns. Check out how she reacted, it is utterly cute.
