Mittelstadt snaps 19-game scoring drought, leads Avalanche past NHL-leading Jets 5-2

Associated Press  

DENVER — Casey Mittelstadt ended a 19-game scoring drought with a tiebreaking goal in the third period and the Colorado Avalanche beat the NHL-leading Winnipeg Jets 5-2 on Tuesday night. He broke that slump Tuesday by deflecting Josh Manson’s shot by Winnipeg’s Eric Comrie at 7:22, sending Colorado to its fifth straight win. The Avalanche led by a goal in the first and second periods, but Rasmus Kupari and Gabriel Vilardi tied it each time for Winnipeg, which had its four-game winning streak halted. Key stat Excluding 2020-21 and 2012-13, when the seasons started in January, and 2021-22, when the game against Dallas was postponed, the Avalanche have hosted 10 straight games on New Year’s Eve.
