Avalanche Take Game 3 And Can Now Advance With A Game 4 Win Monday- 6/4/22
It would be another great competition between the Colorado Avalanche and Edmonton Oilers in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals. In Period 1 we'd see the teams trade goals. Up first was McDavid for the Oilers at just 0:38. Then, the Avalanche would answer at 16:12 by way of Nichushin. So, after 20 minutes of hockey, a 1-1 tie.
Period 2 would only yield 1 goal. It would come at 4:37, from the Avalanche and give Nichushin his second goal in a row, tonight. 2-1 Avalanche after 40 minutes of hockey.
Period 3 would see a bit more action score wise. First, the Oilers would even the score at 2-2 again, with a goal from McLeod at 7:34. The tie was short lived though, as the Avalanche would answer at 12:42. With that goal from Compher, the Avalanche would again take the lead back, now 3-2. The Oilers would get a late Powerplay, but it wouldn't be enough. An Empty Net Goal would seal the Avalanche deal at 18:25, by way of Rantanen.
The Avalanche would pull out a win in Game 3 with a final score of 4-2, giving themselves a 3-0 series lead. This means the Edmonton Oilers must dig deep and win on Monday night in Game 4 at home, or they will be eliminated from the playoffs, as the Avalanche advance to the Stanley Cup Finals. We'll see if the Oilers can pull off a comeback, starting at 8:00 PM EST on ESPN.
