Landeskog capped a three-goal first period with his score in Thursday's Opening Night loss.

EDGE Analysis

Landeskog inched the puck past Devan Dubnyk after Erik Johnson's slap shot hit off the back wall. It wasn't the prettiest display of offense, but that's why style points don't count in the NHL. In an up and down night, the Avalanche captain took a key interference penalty which led to Minnesota's game-winning goal. Landeskog will most certainly want this game back, but will take the goal nonetheless.
