Colorado’s season comes to an end
The Colorado Avalanche’s season is over. After giving the top-seeded San Jose Sharks all they could handle, the No. 8 seed Avalanche were finally eliminated, falling in Game 6 at home, 5-2.
Colorado actually held a 2-1 lead early in the third period, but just minutes later San Jose scored two goals in a span of 1:29 to recapture the lead, one it would never relinquish. The Sharks scored four unanswered goals in the final stanza to put away the pesky Avs.
Marek Svatos and Brandon Yip registered goals in defeat for Colorado.
Joe Pavelski, the hero in Game 4’s overtime win for the Sharks, netted two goals in victory.
