The score might look like the Avalanche had this game in their grip, but that would not be entirely true. Yes, the Avs got out to a hot start taking a 3-0 lead. Things were looking great. But there was a noticeable relaxation on the part of the Avs and St. Louis, to their credit, did not quit and battled back. The Avs turned things on when they had to and behind their superstar Nathan MacKinnon's hat trick, took a 2-0 series lead with a 6-3 win.

Now the series heads to St. Louis where a much more confident Blues team despite the loss will be waiting and he Avs will likely have to do it without Nazem Kadri who leveled a brutal head shot that got him removed from the game. The series ain't over yet! Tune in and subscribe!
