The Colorado Avalanche presented the championship pennant to their home crowd.

Artturi Lehkonen and Mikko Rantanen immediately caught the plot when the Colorado Avalanche faced the Chicago Blackhawks in the opening game of the season.
Avalanche’s Finns started scoring at the end of the first period during the power play, when Rantanen, who received the puck from Lehkonen, found the goal in front of the goal Valery Nitshushkinin.
In the second set, the Finns’ rackets remained hot with superiority. Rantanen was twice in the role of pitcher, while Lehkonen was the finisher. Both Finns therefore already have a total of three power points.
Avalanche leads the match after two sets 4–1.
Lehkonen’s, 27, goal record in the NHL is last season’s 19 goals, which there is certainly potential to break. At least if liability for force majeure is sufficient in the future.
The match between the Avalanche and the Blackhawks began with the traditional festivities in honor of the reigning Stanley Cup champions, when the third championship pennant in the club’s history was raised to the roof of the Ball arena.
Pastrnak raved
See you in Washington David Pastrnak – show that led the Boston Bruins to a 5–2 victory on the road. Pastrnak tapped the power 2+2 and was accompanied by a compatriot David Krejci with three no points (1+2).
The third championship in the history of the Colorado Avalanche was celebrated once again. PDO
