Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals between the Colorado Avalanche and Edmonton Oilers might’ve been the best performance as a team for the Avs. From back to front, the Avs simply gave no high danger chances to the highest-scoring offense in this postseason. This was even through some losses in the team.
Before the puck even dropped, there were questions about the health of Andre Burakovsky, but more importantly about netminder Darcy Kuemper. He exited Game 1 halfway through the second period with an upper-body injury. It has been reported since that he had blurriness in his eye, including fluid coming out from his eye, and couldn’t see the puck.
