#Avs captain Gabe Landeskog said he “had a quick surgery to fix some things” after taking a shot from Cale Makar, well … “in the nuts.”

Also confirmed that he had broken ribs earlier this year after crashing into the net in South Florida.

An #Avs player on the ice today:

“Terrible. Terrible. Terrible … unless Marty Necas had the puck in overtime.”

After allowing late goal to Ovechkin, #Avs deliver win. They all matter with how much their lead has shrunk in standings over last 2 1/2 months

6-10*

Nelson from Necas. #Avs win 3-2

#Avs are 5-10 this year in games that need more than regulation to decide them.

The #Avs bench just went ballistic about a no-call in the offensive zone. One of the officials just went over to give them a warning.

They thought Landeskog's penalty was ... soft. And didn't like a similar no-call at the other end.

#Avs take another penalty with 6:03 left. The captain this time.

Fifth one of the game. Caps power play has looked pretty bad, but they're playing with fire. Best power-play shooter of all time is still out there.

Nic Roy has 3 goals in 9 games with the #Avs.

He had 5 in 59 games for the Maple Leafs.

Huge save from Mackenize Blackwood after a slick move from Pierre-Luc Dubois.

This game got wide open for a couple shifts and the #Avs just took another penalty.

The opportunistic version of the #Avs has arrived.

Nic Roy just forced Cole Hutson into a turnover in front of Logan Thompson and then ripped one by the goaltender.

2-1 Avs
