After a successful start to the four-game road trip the Colorado Avalanche faced another tough test against the Edmonton Oilers. It was a tighter low scoring affair early on but in the late stages of the game the offense woke up capped with a buzzer beater goal in overtime in this 3-2 Avalanche victory.
The Game
It was a scoreless first period with Edmonton grabbing a slight advantage in shots 10-7. As both teams traded power plays into the second frame the score still held at zeroes. Then five minutes into the second period Jonathan Drouin was awarded a penalty shot but Oilers goaltender Stuart Skinner made the save.
