NHL Highlights | Bruins vs. Avalanche - Jan. 26, 2022

Cale Makar scored the overtime winner as the Colorado Avalanche erased a two-goal deficit and came back to defeat the Boston Bruins 4-3.

[@martins.1837]

That Was an EXCELLENT game. Both Boston and the AVS played like this was a Playoff Game. Fun Stat:..That was Colorado's 7th OT in 14 Games..They are 6-1. They Avs are finding ways to win...this was a BIG WIN for them though heading into the All-star break.

[@kingoftrolls19]

Usually avs would be 0-7 but someway somehow there OT horrors have changed

[@martins.1837]

@@kingoftrolls19 True...They've turned it around in OT...Last year they were 500. This year they are 9-2 not bad considering. in 2020 the year that was stopped at game 70 because of Covid, they were 4-13 in OT or SO.

Woke up in the morning and checked the results. 3-1 for Bruins at the end of 2nd. Thought "the Avs will come back". They did. Cale "Norris" Makar again 😎 Oilers should take notes. Depth wins games. Avs with 7 guys at 30+ points.

[@romaliop]

I think the Avs depth is still not that great. It's mainly the contributions from the blueline that lift the team above many others. The forward group is still pretty top-heavy.

[@day1avsfan907]

@@romaliop so their top scoring blueline adds depth? You contradicted yourself

[@QuarisDoma]

They deep, but its easy to make hay when the sun is shining. Rust n Guentzel are piling points cause their sun is blazing too. McDrai were 2ppg during the early shine. Avs cool off when playoffs start.

[@kingoftrolls19]

@@day1avsfan907 I think what he is implying is that compared to last year, the avs are getting more production from the defense. But the guys not wrong. Our 4th line is non existent. The 3rd line is a hit n miss. The 2nd besides kadri are hot and cold. Haven’t heard of Burky name in a while.

[@markopuranen5910]

Good points guys. At least compared to the puddle that Oilers are, the Avs are an ocean. And it's hard to find a team that clearly has more depth. Maybe Florida has more consistent scoring through their roster.

[@anandr1385]

Being that I’m on the east coast I don’t watch many west games. So I came home late last night and decided to watch the last few mins of the third because I know the avs are good and damn I’m glad I did. Quick young team but they’re smart as well. As soon as they get possession in the offensive zone it seemed like their players were set up in great passing lanes. Absolutely great team.

[@kpov2533]

I wasnt sure and my blood pressure was going crazy. Team was definitely losing their cool. EJ was benched by Bednar rightfully so. The hit was unfortunate but I don't think it was dirty. So impressed that even with some poor playing they managed to take the W. That's what a good team does. Keeping that streak alive. Go Avs!

[@billycarvatt9722]

For the Hall hit on MacK (as an Avs fan) I don't think it is necessarily clean. If the stick isn't there I think Hall blasts MacK in the chin with his shoulder. Which is a hit you don't want in the game. But DOPS cannot punish a guy for what would have happened (only what DID happen) so I don't think he should be suspended or anything like that. Just my 2 cents

[@MaizenBlue27]

@@billycarvatt9722 He missed his head and got the opposite shoulder. The stick was in the path and inadvertently hit Mack in the face. Hall wasn't trying to take him out just throw an open ice hit.

[@AP3XZ3R0]

Y'all should listen to the Captain Landeskog post game interview, it's not about dirty or clean, it's that they went after his close friend/our star player. Why the Avs been eliminated from the playoffs by more physical teams in recent years. This AVS team is different tho, brings more physical play and not taking the BS from any team. Hall didn't want it with MacDermid or Landy lol I don't blame em. Whatta damn game.

[@Cipher301]

I said it the whole time. I said Period 3 Avs would come in clutch, and then when the shots started rolling in, I knew we had it. 2 goals later, it goes into OT, and there was nothing stopping the avs.

[@soadfan1016]

Corey Perry dropped the gloves even though the injury towards John Tavares was accidental and unfortunate. After the game, Perry was asked about fighting and he responded with something along the lines of that he "had to" fight. It's a similar situation where a teams star player gets injured from a hit that accidently caused a bad injury. I'm not saying Hall should have fought Landeskog. But seeing how Perry was aware that even though he didn't mean to, he still took out a star player, so he felt obligated to answer the bell when the opposing team wanted to address it. Perry addressed it with respect and acknowledged that he was still in the wrong, despite intent. Hall stuck with feeling like he shouldn't be accountable for the injury. Landeskog and Erik Johnson saw the hit in real time and mostly saw the aftermath (a bloody MacKinnon). I'm sure during intermission they finally had access to the slow motion replay that we as fans get to see. At the end of the day, when a star player goes down, the teammates will always look to retaliate, accidental or not. I'm sure the Maple Leafs knew that Perry's knee struck Tavares head on accident. But they still approached Perry (I can't remember the player that fought him). Perry fought and the Leafs moved on. If Hall fights Landeskog, I'm certain the Avs would have moved on. Anyways, that's my take. Have a good night everyone.

[@brettpetersen9698]

Couldn’t have been said better

[@natthaphonnoble2407]

[@markopuranen5910]

Pretty sure it was Foligno who fought Perry.

[@carlmack2188]

Wow! Have you ever played hockey? or even understand the dynamics of a particular game? there are fine points, especially on the road that the coach drills pre-game and i’m sure they were emphasized after “the hit” or “stick hit”. Corey Perry and Taylor Hall are different players and have different roles. The real problem in this game were the refs letting the Aves take liberties not just with Hall but a lot of other stick work, right in front of everybody and no calls.

[@snakeeyes9246]

It was Nick Foligno who fought Corey Perry after that hit on Tavares. Interestingly enough, Foligno is now a Bruin.

People do not realize Kadri is the greatest playmaker since Gretzky, and imo had he been given full reigns on his team(s) and in the league to show that from the start, he'd prove to be better than the great one. Trust, he's better than Oates and Thorton for sure, the last two to own those crowns. Naz just creates productive plays and oppurtunities, makes it simple for his teammates to use that open room in front of them to make a sweet shot, off a perfect pass. If you've played the game then you know there is a distinct vibe or groove that develops from a clean pass. He has those in his arsenal, and then there's his precision chess move dishes, like to Landeskog, where you literally have no chance if he connects. You could be a first year beginner on skates playing in an NHL game and he'll find a way to get you a tap in. Best quarterback in the game today, no question.

[@DXAdamJensen]

The Colorado Avalanche’s 2nd period performance was very selfish and undisciplined. Erik Johnson took a very stupid cross-checking penalty that gave the Bruins a 5 on 3 powerplay. They ended up scoring on both powerplays. What happened to Mackinnon was unfortunate, but harassing Hall was not going to get him back on the ice or help the team win. Linus Ullmark is a very tough goalie when he is on the road. He is ranked 3rd in the league for SV% on the road with a .930. He is only behind Markstrom and Shesterkin. I don’t know what Bednar said to the team during the 2nd intermission, but it worked because they looked completely different on the third period. The Avs didn’t give up as they kept being aggressive and eventually overtaking the Bruins on shots at 41-32. Cale Makar ends his goal scoring drought at 7 games with the OT game winner. The streak extends to 17, but it is getting more difficult for the Avs to win at home.
