The Colorado Avalanche did what they needed to do last night. After a disappointing effort in Vancouver that saw the Avs get blanked after two shutout performances of their own, Colorado bounced back in a big way against the Calgary Flames.

On the shoulders of a three-point night from Martin Necas (2G, 1A), the Avs turned aside the Flames by a score of 4-2 and created some separation between themselves and Calgary in the process.
