The Colorado Avalanche faced the Montreal Canadiens in a game where Ross Colton scored the opening goal for the Avalanche, but the Canadiens quickly equalized. Cale Makar then put the Avalanche ahead, only for the Canadiens to tie the game again. Cole Caufield scored a power-play goal to give the Canadiens the lead, which was later extended by Joel Armia. The game ended with the Canadiens beating the Avalanche 4-3, with an impressive effort at Bell Centre.
#Habs beat Avalanche 4-3. Very impressive effort at Bell Centre. #HabsIO
Joel Armia scores his seventh goal of season to put #Habs up 4-3 on Avalanche with 4:10 left in third period. Great effort. #HabsIO
Cole Caufield has been very predictable this season with shots high to short side. Seemed to catch Alexander Georgiev by surprise going high far side here. #Habs #HabsIO https://t.co/VYugqyDHYF
Mikko sets up Toews for one timer and the tying goal, Makar with his third point of the night on the assist, #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado

Rafaël Harvey-Pinard scores his first goal of season as #Habs tie it up 2-2 with Avalanche with 3:52 left in second period. #HabsIO
Cogliano hooked as he on the breakaway and trying to take a shot. No penalty shot but he gets the Avs a PP. Avs are 1/1 so far #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado
Cale Makar scores to put Avalanche up 2-1 on #Habs 1:01 into second period. #HabsIO
1st period impressions #Avs are struggling to exit their own zone. The speed of Val is missed already on the 2nd line. Avs need to shut down the front of the net, Georgiev isn't holding onto the puck on rebounds. Work on taking more shots from RW. #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado https://t.co/QWl06sIMHc
Pretty solid first period by #Habs vs. Avalanche as teams exchange power-play goals. Score tied 1-1 heading into intermission. Shots are 16-15 for Habs. #HabsIO
Ross Colton gathers his own rebound and buries his 10th goal of the year for the 1-0 lead. Drouin and Makar with the assists #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado
Avalanche goes up 1-0 on #Habs with power-play goal. PK continues to be a problem for Habs. #HabsIO
