    Colorado Avalanche v.s Calgary Flames

    Game Recap:

    Tonight’s Game 5 match up between the Colorado Avalanche & Calgary Flames was a very important game for both teams. The Avalanche have a chance to close out the series and advance to round 2. On the other side, the Flames have a chance to stay alive and force a Game 6. In the first period saw Colorado strike twice as they got goals from their Captain Gabriel Landeskog & Mikko Rantanen. Calgary would get on the board late in the period on a wrist shot at the right faceoff circle from TJ Brodie. After the first period, the Avalanche would take a 2-1 lead going into the second period.

     

    The second period saw the Avalanche imposing their will on the Flames as they put two more goals in the back of the net from Colin Wilson, hist first goals of the playoffs. Wilson’s first goal came off an offensive zone turnover on a give and go pass from Mikko Rantanen. His second goal of the game was a deflection off a Nathan MacKinnon shot on the Power Play. Colorado would take a 4-1 lead going into the third period.

     

    To begin the third period, the Colorado Avalanche would add another goal on the Power Play early by Mikko Rantanen. This would seal the deal for the Avalanche as they would get the 5-1 victory and move onto the second round of the Stanley Cup playoffs. It is the first time since 2008 that the Colorado Avalanche have advanced past the first round. This officially ends the #1 seeded Calgary Flames hopes of winning a Stanley Cup. The Colorado Avalanche await the winner of the Vegas Golden Knights and San Jose Sharks series to see who their opponent will be in round two.

    OGame Recap

    Tonight, Game 3 takes the Colorado Avalanche back home to the Pepsi Center to square off against the Calgary Flames. The first period certainly was very interesting for the Colorado Avalanche. The Avalanche jumped out to a 3-0 lead. Nathan MacKinnon scored twice on the power play. However, the biggest story of the first period featured rookie Cale Makar scoring his first National Hockey League goal in the Stanley Cup playoffs. It has been a crazy and interesting last few days for the rookie as he won the Hobey Baker award on Friday night as the top college hockey player. On Saturday, Makar appeared in the NCAA Championship game v.s eventual champions Minnesota Deluth. Sunday, Cale Makar signed his entry-level deal with the Avalanche so he could play and replace the injured defenseman, Sam Girard. After the first period, the Colorado Avalanche would lead 3-0 over the Calgary Flames.

    In the second period, the Avalanche kept their scoring up as they struck twice. Matt Nieto scored his second shorthanded goal of these series and Mikko Rantanen added his first goal of the playoffs. Calgary would get on the board on a Sam Bennett power play goal. After two period, the Avalanche would lead 5-1 over the Flames.

    The third period saw each team trade goals as Erik Johnson scored for the Avalanche and TJ Brodie scored for the Flames. The Avalanche shut down the Flames for the remainder of the game and claimed the victory 6-2. The Avalanche now lead the series 2-1 heading into Game 4 on Wednesday night.
