The Stars began this series with a 5-1 home defeat to Colorado, but rebounded over the next couple of games to take the lead.
They recorded back-to-back overtime victories, winning 4-3 at home and 2-1 on the road, only to then suffer a 4-0 defeat in Colorado that levelled up the series one again.
Dallas rallied at home though, regaining the series lead with a 6-2 blowout of the Avalanche on Monday.
The Stars claimed their place in the postseason by putting together a 50-26-6 regular-season record to finish second in the Central Division.
Colorado Avalanche Form
Colorado return home knowing that they must win back-to-back games to advance in the postseason.
The Avalanche got off to the perfect start as they won 5-1 in Dallas, but they failed to build on that series-opening win.
They were beaten 4-3 in overtime in the second meeting, before returning home for a 2-1 overtime defeat to the Stars.
Colorado rallied to level the series with a 4-0 shutout victory, but fell behind again on Monday as they were beaten 6-2 in Dallas.
