In an entertaining game that featured an early fight, some hits (and elbows), pretty goals, and fine goal-tending, it all came crashing down on what amounted to an overtime own goal by the visiting Avalanche. Colorado defender Jonos Holos made the lowest hockey IQ move, carrying the puck in front of his own net after a defensive zone face-off win, only to have it poke checked into his own net by the perpetually hustling Mason Raymond.
In the end, Roberto Luongo finally got a home ice start, and did not disappoint carrying his team in the later parts of the game as the Avalanche were the better squad in the final two periods.
