END OF 1ST: #Avs 0 - #Caps 1

Colorado will have to win in comeback fashion if they plan on snagging two points in this matinee contest!

#GoAvsGo

The #Avs defensemen in are in hell right now with the ice. Josh Manson lost the puck trying to make an outlet pass. Devon Toews crashed into the boards after beating Alex Ovechkin to a loose puck.

Connor McMichael just flipped a go-deep outlet pass to Justin Sourdif. He corralled it on three hops behind the #Avs defense and beat Mackenzie Blackwood.

1-0 Caps

It’s still morning so we can still drink coffee and watch #Avs hockey! #GoAvsGo

Ethan Frank just crashed into the #Avs net after he got on the other side of Devon Toews. He left the game. Looked from the replay like he got a nudge from Toews.

No penalties on the play.

The #Avs have now allowed one (1) shot on goal combined over the last six power plays for the other team, dating back to the Dallas game.

Sam Malinski at the point on PP2 for the #Avs.

92, 13, 10 and 7 with him.

Cole Hutson's first shift against the #Avs ... sets up two scoring chances, dekes past one of the team's best defensive forwards.

Second shift ... took a penalty trying to defend Nathan MacKinnon. #Avs to the power play.
