WHEN/WHERE
March 28, 2016 / Game 76
Pepsi Center / Denver, CO
HIGHLIGHTS
An insurance marker by Shawn Matthias in the third period came up huge for the Avs on Monday night in Nashville. At the time, Matthias’ goal gave Colorado a three goal lead (4-1), but it actually ended up being the game-winning goal. Despite a near catastrophic collapse late in the final frame, the Avalanche ended up with two huge points in the standings after defeating the Predators, 4-3.
Colorado wanted to come out strong in this one after their disappointing effort at home against Minnesota on Saturday, and they did just that — scoring three goals in the opening period of play.
