PA Parenteau got his measure of revenge.
The former Avalanche player scored twice on the power play to help lift the Leafs to a convincing 5-1 win over Colorado on Tuesday. Toronto was dominant on special teams, connecting four times with the man advantage, plus getting a shorthanded tally from Leo Komarov for the game’s opening goal.
“It’s always fun to score against your former team,” Parenteau said. “We played a great game tonight, and the power play was clicking.”
Parenteau was dealt from the Avalanche to the Montreal Canadiens on June 30, 2014 for an aging Danny Briere and a fifth-round draft pick.
