Back-to-back power-play goals early in the third period turned the game for the Colorado Avalanche on Friday night. "We obviously let their pretty potent power play have some opportunities and they capitalized," said Jets defenceman Josh Morrissey. Winnipeg led 2-1 after 40 minutes but things unravelled quickly as Colorado scored three times within a six-minute span. Nathan MacKinnon and Valeri Nichushkin got the rally started and Artturi Lehkonen gave Colorado a two-goal cushion.

Starting Monday, NHL Award finalists will start to be announced ahead of the June ceremony. While some awards will be a close race though, this year, the Vezina Trophy is unlikely to be one of them. The clear Vezina Trophy favorite is Winnipeg Jets starter Connor Hellebuyck. Hellebuyck was one of the keys to the Jets' successful year, playing 60 games this season.
