Jets goaltender Stuart Skinner shut the Avs down with big saves on Grade A chances. Despite not being able to solve him, the puck was not in the Avs’ favor. Nathan MacKinnon, Gabriel Landeskog and Martin Necas all hit either a crossbar or a post to keep it scoreless after the first period.
Jaden Schwartz and Fedor Svechkov each scored their first goals of the season and first since joining the team. Both assisted on each other’s goals, giving them two-point nights.
Mackenzie Blackwood had a solid game despite the 3-2 final. Two goals were scored off deflections, making them difficult saves for any goaltender.
