Journeyman minor-leaguer Andrew Agozzino has a big night for the Avalanche in his first NHL game since 2015-16

In the 470th game of his professional hockey career, but just his 11th in the NHL and first since the 2015-16 season, center Andrew Agozzino scored his first goal at the highest level.

Save the puck.

Agozzino, 28, was on Cloud 9 Monday night after helping lead the Avalanche to a 3-0 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights to snap Colorado’s six-game losing streak at the Pepsi Center. Agozzino, who was called up from the AHL’s Colorado Eagles on Sunday and made his NHL season debut against the Knights, also had an assist for a team-high two points in just 6:27 of ice time.
