ST. LOUIS — Colorado’s Nazem Kadri, the most booed player in the building, had a hand in consecutive second-period goals as the Avs defeated St. Louis 5-2 in Game 3 of the Western Conference semifinals here Saturday night.
Colorado leads the series, 2-1, with Game 4 on Monday night.
Gabe Landeskog scored what amounted to an empty-net goal with just over two minutes left to ice the game. Artturi Lehkonen added another empty-net score in the final minute.
The Avs built a 3-1 lead on second-period goals from Kadri and Lehkonen, the latter set up by Kadri.
