Aamodt cut the lead to 2-1 at 10:05 of the third period. He took a behind-the-back pass from Martin Necas on a rush and scored with a shot from the right circle that went off the skate of Ducks defenseman Pavel Mintyukov and past Dostal.

There is plenty of potential drama in the coming days for the Colorado Avalanche, but the message for Game No. 82 was pretty simple.

Charlie Coyle had a goal and two assists in Colorado’s four-goal third period, and the Avalanche rallied to beat the Anaheim Ducks 4-2.
