Two goals in 45 seconds helped Vegas flip Game 2 to their favor during a 3-2 win Friday over the Avalanche.
Colorado head coach Jared Bednar was not pleased with his teamâs play late in the third period.
âThe easy answer is this: For five periods straight now, theyâve been far more competitive than we have. To dissect the game any further than that is a waste of time,â Bednar said âWeâre kidding ourselves if we think thatâs the competitiveness we need to beat the team that tied us for first in the league. We caught them on an off night in Game 1, we gave them life in Game 2 and weâre going to have to compete way harder than [Game 3] in order to beat them. If we havenât realized that, then weâre late to the party.â
The Golden Knights now have a chance to leave home with the series split at 2-2 if they win Game 4. They know what they need to do in order to have a shot at a second straight win over the Avalanche. Now itâs just a matter of execution.
âWe want to make them defend,â said Vegas forward Max Pacioretty. âItâs no secret thatâs the way you want to play against the best players in the league. We want to make them play down in their end, have the puck, make them waste some energy, and make them stop in their own end.â
