EDMONTON — Unlike many of the behemoth goaltenders in the modern N.H.L., the Dallas Stars’ Anton Khudobin checks in at just 5 feet 11 inches and 195 pounds. Dallas had led by 3-1 against Colorado in the previous round but needed an overtime goal in Game 7 to advance. After advancing out of the second round with a Game 7 win over the Vancouver Canucks, the Golden Knights will face elimination for the second time in this postseason in Game 5 on Monday night. “We understand where we’re at and haven’t done anything,” the Stars’ Joe Pavelski said. Khudobin went into Game 4 with 495 saves this postseason on 541 shots faced, more than any other goalie.
