20/21 Season Game 18 Boston Bruins @ Colorado Avalanche
The Avs welcomed Original Six opponent Boston to the Ball Arena ice, in a high scoring game that both goalies would like to forget. The Avs scored on their first shot of the game, thanks to the first of two goals from Landeskog. The Avs continued their trend of taking an early penalty, but backup netminder Francouz kept the Bruins off the board during their powerplay with a series of stellar saves. After weathering the storm on the PK the Avs doubled their lead on a Rantanen goal, the Avs second shot on Rask. The Bruins would get a goal back before the end of the opening frame thanks to star winger David Pastrnak. The Bruins upped the pressure in the second period and got a golden opportunity when JT Compher was assessed a game misconduct penalty for boarding. The Avs penalty kill did a fine job killing off the long powerplay, but the momentum stayed in Boston's favor as they scored twice to take a 3-2 lead. Less than a minute later the Avs would answer right back to tie the game at 3 on Joonas Donskoi's 5th goal of the season. The 3rd period kept up the frantic back and forth pace, and Colorado capitalized on aggressive play by the Bruins to score the game winner, Landeskog's second of the night.
