The slow-starting Avalanche used another comeback to win its fifth consecutive game and extend its club-record home winning streak to 12 games on Monday at Ball Arena.
The losing goalie: Philipp Grubauer, who took more money to sign with the expansion Seattle Kraken in the offseason. The German was typically the Avs’ No. 1 goalie over the past three seasons but chose to move on as an unrestricted free agent.
Grubauer’s former teammates rallied from a 3-1 deficit to defeat the Kraken 4-3 and sweep the regular-season series.
The Avs’ entire five-game winning streak has featured comebacks.
