Two teams heading into the final week before the trade deadline in search of momentum collided in Denver on a snowy Monday evening.
On one end of the ice was the Vegas Golden Knights, winners of only three games in their last ten and clinging on to the final playoff spot in the Pacific division. On the other end was the equally-struggling Colorado Avalanche, who have only seen one victory in their last ten and just four in the calendar year of 2019.
In a game which saw 78 total shots, though, the Avalanche stood tall and earned their first ever regulation win over the Golden Knights in a 3-0 final score.
