Jared Bednar said he watched the Sens/Canes game last night and it was "five periods of absolute war."

Said the officials could have called eight penalties but didn't and let them play.

Said the playoffs are so intense.

If morning skate is any indication, the #GoAvsGo  will go back to Scott Wedgewood in net for Game 2.

What a turn of events the rolling puck just had!

Sean Bean!

We know one OT is never enough in Raleigh. However, definitely looked like Staal didn’t have control of that puck as he entered the zone. Just happened to LOC here the other day.

Carolina has a goal called off for offsides, but a penalty was taken after the offsides occurred, and now they’re awarded a penalty shot. 😳

Any Duncan Jones joint is a movie I'll see.

11 on 11 crime

That was the best time to tune in

I’m just barely ahead of you

True but he’s also older

Just sat down to watch OT and it ended. You’re welcome, Montreal.

Scott Wedgewood (33 years, 248 days) is the 3rd-oldest goalie in NHL history to earn a win in his 1st career playoff start.

The two older:
• Curtis McElhinney (35 years, 343 days)
• Les Binkley (35 years, 306 days)

Per NHL PR

Panrin went for a breakaway pass, it was picked off. He pinched, and missed.

Avs had a 2-on-1 broken up but the puck came to Necas all alone in the slot. Crossbar and out.

Power-play goal from inside the blue line

Empty net for LA. Draw in the Avs zone. Colorado up 2-0 with 2:57 left.

you guessed it

Lehkonen makes it 1-0 after kicking the rebound of MacKinnon's initial shot to his stick and writing it across his body.

Challenge Initiated By: Colorado Type of Challenge: Goaltender Interference Result: Call on the ice is confirmed – No Goal Colorado Explanation: The play on the ice was challenged under Rule 38 – Coach’s Challenge. Rule 38.1 states, “In all Coach’s Challenge situations, the original call on the ice will be overturned if, and only if, a conclusive and irrefutable determination can be made on the basis of video evidence that the original call on the ice was clearly not correct. If a review is not conclusive and/or there is any doubt whatsoever as to whether the call on the ice was correct, the original call on the ice will be confirmed.” Video review confirmed Colorado’s Jack Drury interfered with Anton Forsberg, impairing his ability to play his position in the crease prior to the puck entering the net. The decision was made in accordance with Rule 69.1 which states, in part, “Goals should be disallowed only if: (1) an attacking player, either by his positioning or by contact, impairs the goalkeeper’s ability to move freely within his crease or defend his goal.” Penalty: 2:00 minor penalty: Delay of Game – Unsuccessful Challenge

On the challenge determination:

Dumoulin is back.

No goal.

Avs are challenging.

LOC sniped one but Drury went into Forsberg prior to the shot.
