COLUMBUS, OHIO — Colorado Avalanche coach Jared Bednar answered questions about the slow start offensively from his second line on two occasions Wednesday.
Those guys proceeded to score three goals Thursday.
Valeri Nichushkin scored twice and Brock Nelson had the game-winner during a dominant second period and the Colorado Avalanche completed a perfect road trip with a 4-1 victory against the Columbus Blue Jackets at Nationwide Arena.
“We probably haven’t had our best stretch of games to start the season, but we had a couple of games where I thought we deserved a little better,” Nelson said.
