It started off not so bad, but then it just went downhill fast and the Avalanche could not recover. The Tampa Bay Lightning took advantage of an out of sync Colorado Avalanche squad and do what good teams do, made them pay for it.
But the Avs scored two goals before the Lightning scored one. The only problem was one of the Avs goals was recanted after a challenge and a Val Nichushkin goal was reversed for the Avs being offside.
Bad turnovers, struggling to get the puck out of the defensive zone to turn into offensive rushes were much more difficult to come by last night than they have been at any point.
And when mistakes are being made by your skaters, you need your goalie to bail you out sometimes. Darcy Kuemper struggled to do so. Pulled after his 5th goal allowed, the big question on the day off will be who starts in net?
We also might have some help on the way in the form of Andre Burakovsky returning from an injury, as well all Nazem Kadri. Stay tuned.
