It was not an easy road to get there, with the Avs falling behind 3-0 and digging themselves out of a hole late to finish the job. It is the fifth straight win for the Avalanche dating back to their 5-0 shutout win against the Chicago Blackhawks last Monday. It also snapped the Canucks four-game winning...
