CHICAGO — Behind goals from Matt Duchene, Zach Redmond and Gabe Landeskog — and nothing from Patrick Kane and the Chicago Blackhawks — the Avalanche created the NHL's biggest news Tuesday.
Colorado beat Chicago 3-0 at the United Center and Kane, who entered with a 26-game point streak, was blanked on the scoresheet for the first time in nearly two months. The longest points streak in 23 seasons is over, primarily because of goalie Sem yon Varlamov and a dedicated defense in front of him.

Varlamov, who produced a 54-save shutout here in January, again worked his magic against the modern-day dynasty.
