“I’m not quite sure what he’s thinking, why it shouldn’t have counted. That kind of confuses me a little bit,” said Kadri. “The puck hit the back of the net, end of story. I’m not sure why he’d say that.”
“I don’t want him in if he can’t play the right way and accomplish what we need to accomplish. He was pretty sure, liked how his skates have gone, so obviously we want a player of his calibre in the lineup.” By the time the night was complete and the celebration was winding down, Kadri had taken 26 shifts for 18:42 of ice time, recording two shots on goal and five shot attempts while adding one hit.
This was a gutsy performance from the Avalanche, who rallied to win despite giving up a goal 36 seconds into the contest by Anthony Cirelli and getting badly outshot by a 17-4 margin . Finally the engine of the Avalanche offence was on the board and you can be sure that brought with it a sense of relief.was a major storyline as well, with the Avalanche goalie supplying 37 saves after he was pulled from Game 3 .
