Could the Avalanche be down to third-string goalie Andrew Hammond for Game 5?
David Zalubowski, The Associated Press Colorado Avalanche right wing Sven Andrighetto, bottom, runs into goaltender Andrew Hammond during the third period against the Nashville Predators in Game 4 of an NHL hockey first-round playoff series Wednesday, April 18, 2018, in Denver. The Predators won 3-2. Colorado Avalanche reserve goalie Andrew Hammond had little time to prepare.
The Avs’ starter in net, Jonathan Bernier, went down Wednesday after two periods against Nashville with an unspecified lower-body injury in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs’ opening round, seemingly unrelated to the puck that bounced off his mask in the first period.
No warm-up. No problem.
