GAME STORY: The Panthers fired a shot off the inside of the post late, but Colorado held on with two goals from Nathan MacKinnon via BennettDurando
With under four minutes remaining in a nail-biting road trip finale Saturday, Brandon Montour fired a shot that beat Alexandar Georgiev five-hole. The goal horn sounded in south Florida. The game was tied.
O’Connor was trapped in his second prolonged scoring drought in as many seasons. Last year, it was a 45-game stretch without a goal. This time, he had gone 38 games when he found himself on the rebounding end of a short-handed 2-on-1 rush. Andrew Cogliano threw the puck at the net, and O’Connor’s stick tapped in the second chance.
Then Nieto positioned himself in the middle of the slot to power a one-timer past Sergei Bobrovsky. J.T. Compher’s pass was a beauty from behind the net, but Nieto’s finish was evidence of the precise reason Colorado traded for him. He has two goals in five games with the Avalanche.The Avalanche led 2-0 at first intermission, but Panthers hockey is always an unpredictable affair. When they visited Denver, the Avs erased a 4-1 hole in the third.
