DENVER - There was a time when an early two-goal deficit wouldve deflated the Colorado Avalanche. Cheap Arizona Cardinals Jerseys .That was so two weeks ago, though. This is a way more confident group, especially with a
healthy Semyon Varlamov in goal.Nathan MacKinnon broke a second-period tie and
Varlamov stopped 37 shots, leading the Colorado Avalanche to a 4-3 win over the
Dallas Stars on Saturday.Erik Johnson, John Mitchell and Matt Duchene also
scored as the Avalanche won for the fifth time in six games to leapfrog Dallas
in the Central Division standings.Our top guys have been playing good hockey,
said Colorado coach Patrick Roy, whose team bounced back from a 2-0 deficit
after the first period.MacKinnons score with 8.4 seconds left in the second was
part of a three-goal period for the Avalanche. They came out fast to start the
third, too, with Duchene scoring just 12 seconds into period. It was Duchenes
first goal since Dec. 11.We stayed with it and Varly made big saves the rest of
the way, Duchene said.The pivotal play of the game was early in the third when
Tyler Seguin, the NHLs leading goal scorer, was stuffed on a breakaway by
Varlamov. The save kept Colorados lead in tact as the crowd chanted Varly,
Varly.I made a quick move on net, but (Varly) made the save, Seguin
said.Varlamov improved to 6-2 with two shutouts in eight starts since returning
from a groin injury. Hes stopped 127 of 132 shots over his past three games.I
thought that he was focused, Roy said. He was capable of regrouping.Brett
Ritchie, Colton Sceviour and Ales Hemsky had goals for the Stars, who have
dropped five straight in Denver.The Stars pulled Kari Lehtonen with about 1:20
remaining and had a great chance to tie the game, only to have Jason Spezzas
shot from down low clang off the post.We played well enough to win — hard
enough, well enough, Stars coach Lindy Ruff said.Colorado erupted for three
goals in the second period to turn around a game the Stars were dominating.
MacKinnons goal that gave Colorado the lead was upheld after a lengthy
review.The play started when Maxime Talbot intercepted a pass near the blue line
and sent it over to MacKinnon. The teenager tried to push the puck past
Lehtonens left pad. The referee signalled good, the horn blew and the Avalanche
celebrated.It was reviewed for several minutes, with one replay appearing to
show the puck just barely creeping over the line. The officials said the play
was inconclusive and the goal stood.Regardless of the wait, I got the result I
wanted, MacKinnon said.Asked what he thought of the call, Ruff said, doesnt
matter what I think. I know what they called.Lehtonen was cruising along with a
2-0 lead in the second period, making pad save after pad save, until the
Avalanche finally got something by him. It started with Johnson, who backhanded
a shot that trickled past Lehtonens left skate and into the goal.Lucky goal,
Ruff said.Just the way things have been going this season for Johnson, who was
selected to his first All-Star game on Saturday. Johnson has a career-high 12
goals this season.I think hes been doing a super job, Roy said.Just 1:25 after
Johnsons goal, Mitchell sent a low liner from the blue line into traffic that
got by Lehtonen to tie the game at 2.The Stars caught Colorado napping in the
Avalanches only home afternoon game of the season, scoring 27 seconds into the
game.Seguin was originally credited with the goal after he turned and lined a
shot on Varlamov. But it was given to Ritchie, who redirected the puck. Ritchie
has three goals since being recalled from Texas of the American Hockey League on
New Years Eve.NOTES: Stars LW Erik Cole was a late scratch because of an
illness. ... Dallas players have their fathers and mentors on the trip. ...
Duchenes goal 12 seconds into the third was the fastest goal by Colorado to
start a period this season. ... LW Alex Tanguay was limping after the game. He
caught a slap shot in the right leg during the third period. ... Roy said backup
goalie Reto Berra would be sent to the minors for conditioning. He will play
