Landeskog scores OT winner, Avs force Game 7 with Sharks
DENVER — Gabriel Landeskog’s first career overtime playoff goal was a bit complicated: Dump in the puck, hit a guy along the boards, fall down, scramble back up, skate toward the net and knock it in.
The captain’s reaction right after was not — a big, toothy grin with arms raised to greet eager teammates.
Landeskog scored 2:32 into overtime after Colorado squandered a late lead in regulation and the Avalanche beat the San Jose Sharks 4-3 on Monday night to force a decisive Game 7 in their Western Conference semifinal series.
