20/21 Season Game 62 Colorado Avalanche @ Nashville Predators
Colorado played the second of back to back road games Tuesday night in Nashville. The Avs blew the Preds out last time these teams played, and tonight Nashville returned the favor. The first period was evenly played, both teams finding the scoreboard a minute apart via Calle Jarnkrok and J.T. Compher. In a game that looked like it would be a tight contest between two playoff teams, Colorado absolutely imploded in the second period. They gave up a goal early in the frame on an Arvidsson snipe from the slot. Then just before midway through, Colorado found themselves down by two when Filip Forsberg scored after some questionable goaltending by Francouz. With just under 5 minutes to play in the second Galchenyuk scored his 20th of the season and it looked like the Avs were back in it but two Nashville goals by Borowiecki and former Av Rocco Grimaldi less than a minute apart stretched the Predators lead to three goals. Three of Mark Borowiecki's four goals this season have come at the expense of Colorado. The Avs couldn't really muster any sustained offense in what would turn out to be a scoreless 3rd period and Nashville sent Colorado back to Denver with a 5-2 loss. The Avs return home to face Florida on Thursday, which is also the trade deadline. Colorado may look at available deals to strengthen in net, which seems to be the glaring weakness of an otherwise strong team. It was announced after the game that Sam Girard sustained an upper body injury and would miss some time.
