Avalanche rallies from early deficit, defeats Golden Knights in shootout

The new guys continue to be alright for the Colorado Avalanche.

Jimmy Vesey scored his first goal with the club to help complete a comeback in regulation Tuesday night, then Charlie Coyle had the lone tally in the shootout as the Avs defeated the Vegas Golden Knights, 3-2, at Ball Arena.

The Avs dominated the puck for much of the final 40 minutes in regulation and had the better chances in overtime, but did need to kill a penalty in the final minute of the extra session to reach the shootout.

Neither of these teams is in any particular danger of sliding in the standings.
