HIGHLIGHTS
GAME RUNDOWN
The Colorado Avalanche finished their California road trip with a stop in San Jose to face the Sharks while riding a 4-game losing streak. Despite a solid debut for rookie goalie Spencer Martin and good team play from the Avalanche in front of him, a few costly mistakes spoiled the Avs’ night and sent them skidding to their 5th consecutive loss.
The Avalanche came out playing with purpose in the early minutes of the game and beat Martin Jones with a shot in just the first few minutes, however, San Jose’s All-Star defenseman Brent Burns made a heroic play with the stick to save a sure goal just inches before crossing the goal line.
