Avs lose in sudden death
Joe Pavelski scored on the first shot of a shootout on Tuesday night to give the San Jose Sharks a 1-0 victory over the visiting Colorado Avalanche.
Colorado’s Peter Budaj was stellar in goal until sudden death, when he allowed the only goal of the game.
It was the Avalanche’s final road game of a season. The Avs will complete their season at home against Dallas (Thursday), Vancouver (Saturday) and St. Louis (Sunday). Colorado captain Joe Sakic is hoping to return to the lineup for one of those games at the Pepsi Center.
