The Colorado Avalanche played in an exciting contest last night, and luckily the thrill ended with a win as well. They started off with a 2-0 lead in the first thanks to goals from Francois Beauchemin and Nick Holden.
Beauch scored on the power play from the point with a slapper just as the Avs entered the zone. Later, Nick Holden scored on a beautiful tic-tac-toe passing play involving Alex Tanguay and John Mitchell. Tangs had the soft hands on a sweet one-touch backhand across to Holden for the easy finish.
The Predafiles would score with a goal in the final seconds of the first to encroach upon the Colorado Avalanche lead.
