After an eventful first period, the Colorado Avalanche would ultimately fall to the St. Louis Blues 5-3 on Saturday afternoon. The game started perfectly for the Avs, going up 2-0 early but they could not hold on to a Blues team that was playing with hunger for their season.
The Avs now fall a little further behind in the race for first in the West to the Vegas Golden Knights. They stay two points behind Vegas with a game in hand and could have gone joint-top of the West with a win but could not get it done.
