Miles Wood has a particular brand of chaotic hockey, and this was a night that called out for it.
The Colorado Avalanche struggled to create offensive chances for much of the game against the St. Louis Blues at Enterprise Center, but one late flurry was enough. A Devon Toews shot from the left point was the difference with 2:54 in a quirky 2-1 win, but Wood’s play leading to the faceoff and in front of the goalie just before Toews’ shot helped create the game-winning tally.
It was Colorado’s first road win in seven tries (1-3-3), and it was an important two points after what happened Wednesday night on the first game of this road trip.
