Valeri Nichushkin and Trent Miner Rally Avalanche
Valeri Nichushkin's performance was described as "C'est magnifique" in the Avalanche's 5-4 shootout loss to the Hurricanes.
The Avalanche debuted their Quebec Nordiques throwbacks but struggled with turnovers and defense early on, as well as power-play struggles throughout the game.
However, Nichushkin came through late to steal a point, scoring his second goal of the night on the club's seventh power-play opportunity at 14:09 of the third period, helping Colorado claw back from a 4-1 deficit.
"I thought he was having a great game, maybe his best of the year,"
said Avs coach Jared Bednar, explaining why Nichushkin was promoted to the top power-play unit before scoring the game-tying goal.
