After another shocking road performance the Colorado Avalanche returned to, once again, right the ship on home ice at Ball Arena. It wasn’t easy at times but though multiple penalties and momentum shifts the Avalanche prevailed 6-3 and continued to be unbeaten in games in which they score a goal in.
The Game
Both teams came out hard with good forechecking and speed but there was sloppy play as well. The new look fourth line got scored on first by New Jersey when Josh Manson fell down behind the net and couldn’t quite recover to cover Tyler Toffoli who put a sharp angle shot past Alexandar Georgiev at just 3:43 into the game.
