POST CAST: Blackwood Stands Tall as Avalanche Take 3-1 Series Lead with 5-2 Game 4 Win

The Colorado Avalanche grabbed a 3-1 series lead as they beat the Minnesota Wild 4-2 at Grand Casino Arena on Monday night. The Wild grabbed the lead in the first period on a Power Play goal by Danila Yurov , but the Avalanche responded in the second on a Power Play goal from Nazem Kadri. The Avs scored 4 goals in the 3rd period, including empty netters from Nathan MacKinnon and Brock Nelson to take control of the series with only one win needed to close things out and 3 chances to get it. Jesper Wallstedt stopped 29 of 32 shots in net for the Wild, who will try to stave off elimination on Wednesday in Colorado.
