In some of the ugliest Avalanche hockey ever witnessed, the Avalanche beat the detroit red wings by a score of three to two, by circumstances that can be explained in no other way than divine intervention. And a little Semyon Varlamov. And two goals from guys in white and burgundy sweaters. So it wasn't entirely determined by the hockey gods, but it feels like most of it was.
