It showed a lot of character from the guys tonight. There was no quit. We didn’t change our game and our power play came up huge.”Barrie tied it with 3:01 left in the third on a one-timer with Vancouver’s Jake Virtanen off for hooking.Then, with Daniel Sedin off for hooking in overtime, Barrie passed to MacKinnon, who fired a shot from the faceoff circle past Canucks goalie Anders Nilsson.Colorado pulled three points out of the final wild card spot in the Western Conference.”We were talking about desperation and playing with urgency and we’ve lacked that a little bit in the last handful of games,” Avalanche coach Jared Bednar said. ”We felt other teams were turning it up and the competitiveness and urgency in everyone’s game at this point in the year was going up and ours wasn’t.”Tonight, we were kind of quiet (before the game) www.coyotesproshop.com , looked like a focused room.

Goldobin put Vancouver ahead on the power play when his shot from a sharp angle was tipped over Varlamov’s shoulder with 6:59 remaining.

It’s team work and everyone needs to be a little better.”After a scoreless first period, Sutter made a nice play to set up the first goal of the game just 34 seconds into the second. Sutter stripped the puck from Avalanche defenseman Nikita Zadorov behind the net then one-handed a pass out front to Archibald, who beat Varlamov with a quick shot to the stick side.Jost tied the game at 10:46 when he deflected Barrie’s shot from the point under Nilsson’s arm.NOTES: The Canucks signed D Erik Gudbranson to a three-year, $12 million contract. … With G Jacob Markstrom sidelined with a minor injury, Richard Bachman was recalled from Utica of the AHL and dressed as Nilsson’s backup. … The Avalanche recalled D Andrei Mironov and D David Warsofsky from San Antonio of the AHL to replace Erik Johnson and Anton Lindholm, who suffered upper-body injuries Sunday.UP NEXTAvalanche: At Edmonton on Thursday night.Canucks: At Vegas on Friday night.
