Avalanche Turning Point: Toews, Makar Kill OT Penalty By Themselves (+)

In the Turning Point, we’ll take a look at one moment in the previous Colorado Avalanche game that changed the momentum of the game.

Alright, maybe Devon Toews and Cale Makar didn’t kill the penalty all by themselves. After all, Alexandar Georgiev made a few big saves to keep the Boston Bruins off the scoreboard…but it sure felt like the best defensive pair in the league did a lot of the legwork.

Upon rewatch, that statement held true. Makar and Toews put on a clinic, helping the Avalanche hold off the Bruins and get this game to a shootout, where Georgiev and Nichushkin did the rest.
