Valeri Nichushkin and Trent Miner Help Avalanche Rally
Valeri Nichushkin's performance on Thursday night was described as "C'est magnifique."
The Avalanche debuted the Quebec Nordiques throwbacks but struggled with turnovers and defending early on, as well as power-play struggles throughout the game.
However, Nichushkin came through late to help the team steal a point in a 5-4 shootout loss against the Carolina Hurricanes at Ball Arena.
"I thought he was having a great game, maybe his best of the year,"
said Avs coach Jared Bednar, explaining why Nichushkin was promoted to the top power-play unit before scoring the game-tying goal.
Nichushkin's second goal of the night came on the club's seventh power-play opportunity, helping Colorado claw back from a 4-1 deficit at 14:09 of the third period.
