DALLAS — Defenseman Duncan Siemens was the second of the Avalanche's first-round draft choices in 2011, going at No. 11 overall — nine choices behind Gabe Landeskog. Six years later, Siemens is getting a final-week cameo with Colorado after his recall from San Antonio.
His third game with the Avs was their 4-3 shootout loss to Dallas on Saturday, and they will take a 22-55-4 record into the season finale today at St. Louis.
After falling behind 2-0 in the first minute of the second period, the Avalanche stormed back on goals from Mikko Rantanen, Landeskog and Nathan MacKinnon to take a 3-2 lead, but ultimately fell in the shootout.
