FINAL: 3-0 Colorado In a game where Colorado was certainly out-played, the Avs survive and win their eighth straight game. Mackenzie Blackwood definitely looked like he returned to form tonight, stopping all 35 shots that he saw. They’ll take on Chicago tomorrow! #GoAvsGo

🚨JACK DRURY! He scores a second empty net goal, and gives Colorado a three-goal lead. 3-0 Colorado! #GoAvsGo

🚨NATHAN MACKINNON! He scores his 17th goal of the season as he puts the empty netter home, and gives Colorado a 2-0 lead with 1:35 left to play! 2-0 Colorado! #GoAvsGo

Colorado will head to the powerplay as McCarron heads off for interference! #GoAvsGo

Toews heads to the box for interference, and Colorado’s penalty kill will get tested for the third time tonight. #GoAvsGo

END 2: 1-0 Colorado The Avs certainly found more of a rhythm in the second period and it didn’t feel like they were merely surviving, but they were unable to beat Saros. Blackwood continued his outstanding play to maintain Colorado’s one-goal lead. #GoAvsGo

Forsberg gets called for interference as he chopped Cale Makar’s stick out of his hands, and Colorado will head to their first penalty of the night! #GoAvsGo

Devon Toews heads off for tripping, and Colorado’s penalty kill will be tested once again. #GoAvsGo

END 1: 1-0 Colorado The Avs get outshot 17-6 in this first period, but head to the locker room up by a goal, in huge part due to Mackenzie Blackwood playing incredibly! Hopefully the Avs can pick up their play in the second period and tilt the ice back in their favor! #GoAvsGo

Nashville gets a fantastic look after the penalty expires, and Mackenzie Blackwood robs them to keep the game at 1-0. #GoAvsGo

Colorado survives a massive push from Nashville, but they aren’t out of the woods yet as they’ll head to the penalty kill next. #GoAvsGo

🚨BRENT BURNS! About 15 seconds into the game, he puts a shot on net from just inside the blue line and beats Saros! 1-0 Colorado! #GoAvsGo

Happy Saturday, Avs fans! Colorado kicks off a back-to-back tonight in a few minutes, as they take on the Nashville Predators! #GoAvsGo

ROSS COLTON!! 🚨 EMPTY NETTER! TURN OUT THE LIGHTS! 6-3 good guys! #GoAvsGo

CALE MAKAR 🚨 EMPTY NETTER! TURN OUT THE LIGHTS! 5-3 good guys! #GoAvsGo

NATHAN MACKINNON!! 🚨 Makar’s blast rang off the iron and went right to MacKinnon who back handed one home! 4-3 good guys! #GoAvsGo

Rangers tie it on the power play. 3-3 now. #GoAvsGo

Still nothing on the power play. #GoAvsGo

Avs are headed to the power play yet again! #GoAvsGo

Beautiful save from Wedgwood! #GoAvsGo

BROCK NELSON!! 🚨 That one seemed to catch Shesterkin off guard. Avs have their first lead of the night! 3-2 good guys. #GoAvsGo

END OF 2ND: #Avs 2 - #NYR 2 Another hard fought period that was capped off with an equalizer from the Avalanche side. Let’s see if the Avs can secure their first lead of the evening in the third period! #GoAvsGo

Nelson and Landy smoked each other but they seem fine! #GoAvsGo

CALE MAKAR!! 🚨 A wrap around try goes in on a beautiful passing play from Nathan MacKinnond and Martin Necas! 2-2 tie! #GoAvsGo

Skesterkin with glove save on Necas in transition. #GoAvsGo

Avs are now 0/3 on the advantage tonight. #GoAvsGo

Excellent save by Shesterkin there. Should be tied. #GoAvsGo

Avs will get their third power play chance of the game. #GoAvsGo

2-1 Rangers. #GoAvsGo

END OF 1ST: #Avs 1 - #NYR 1 A good start in front of fans at Ball Arena and this one is tied after one. Some concern about Gavin Brindley who took a heavy hit and didn’t appear to return to the bench. #GoAvsGo

NATHAN MACKINNON!! 🚨 MacKinnon has passed Peter Stasny for second most points in franchise history! 1-1 now. #GoAvsGo

Rangers are quick to the puck and pesky so far! #GoAvsGo

I notice that the first PP unit gets about 1:30 again. Avs are 0/2 now. #GoAvsGo

Avs will have another chance on the power play! #GoAvsGo

Gavin Brindley took a hit and headed down the tunnel. We will keep an eye on if he returns. #GoAvsGo

Thought we were gonna see a fight. #GoAvsGo

Now it’s the Avalanche who will go on the power play! #GoAvsGo

Gavin Brindley ripped that one. Feels like it’s only a matter of time till he gets on the board. #GoAvsGo

Avs haven’t given up a lot of power play goals at home. Avs have led over 80% of the season in terms of minutes played. #GoAvsGo

JT Miller scores off his skates on a slap pass. 1-0 Blueshirts early. #GoAvsGo

Early penalty kill for the Avs as Sam Girard is called for interference. Looked like they were fighting for position. #GoAvsGo

Landy with a massive reverse hit! #GoAvsGo

Gavin Brindley and the second line are generating early! #GoAvsGo

We have dropped the puck at Ball Arena! #GoAvsGo

Alright, how are we feeling Avalanche fans? #GoAvsGo
