DENVER -- Artturi Lehkonen scored twice for the Colorado Avalanche in a 4-1 win against the Pittsburgh Penguins at Ball Arena on Tuesday.
The Colorado Avalanche host the San Jose Sharks after Artturi Lehkonen's two-goal game against the Pittsburgh Penguins in the Avalanche's 4-1 win.
Casey Mittelstadt scored the go-ahead goal on a power play with 4:09 remaining, and the Colorado Avalanche beat the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-1.
The Avalanche looked sluggish, turned the puck over a lot, and didn’t have their legs. But they still found a way to beat the lowly Pittsburgh Penguins 4-1 on Tuesday. Make that three straight wins for Colorado as the homestand reaches the halfway mark.
The Colorado Avalanche came into the season with championship aspirations and Alexandar Georgiev as their top goaltender. Two months in, Colorado was scuffling and made bold moves to reshape its goaltending tandem.
Having three days off this late into the regular season might not be the best recipe for success for the Avalanche. Despite beating the Pittsburgh Penguins on Tuesday — a 4-1 victory off the backs of two empty-net goals — the Avs didn’t have a great performance.
Casey Mittelstadt scored with 4:06 remaining and Scott Wedgewood made 32 saves to help the Colorado Avalanche fend off the Pittsburgh Penguins.
It feels like the Pittsburgh Penguins deserved a much better fate than their 4-1 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Tuesday.
