Avalanche take 2-0 lead with offensive barrage

The Colorado Avalanche have taken a commanding 2-0 lead over the Minnesota Wild in their second-round playoff series, scoring 14 goals in the first two games.

The Avalanche's offensive onslaught has been unprecedented, with 12 different players scoring goals - an NHL record for the first two games of a playoff series. This marks the most goals scored in the opening two games of a series since the 1988 Calgary Flames scored 15 against the Los Angeles Kings. cat-cross.com

Colorado's depth has been evident as their lines continue to produce consistently. After sweeping the Kings, the Avalanche have rediscovered their goal-scoring prowess against the Wild, with Scott Wedgewood making 29 saves in Game 2 after replacing Wallstedt. The series now shifts to St. Paul as Minnesota searches for adjustments to counter Colorado's firepower.
