You know, hope something lucky went in, Ladd said.I think at that point, you really dont want to mess around with plays up top so I thought it was the safe play and lucky it went in.Jets goalie Ondrej Pavelec stopped 22 shots in regulation and overtime.Jamie McGinn scored Colorados goal on the power play with 18 seconds left in the first period. Varlamov faced 28 shots.It was Winnipegs (3-5-0) first game of the season that went to extra time while Colorado (2-4-3) has now lost three in overtime.Winnipeg outshot the Avalanche 6-2 in overtime.I thought we had a lot of good chances in the first (period), we just didnt score on those ones, Colorado head coach Patrick Roy said. Obviously, we had a few good looks also in overtime. (Gabriel Landeskog) had a chance there and then their goalie made a great save on that play. I thought it was a great game. Roy had nothing but praise for his netminder.I think Varly knows he played a really good game, Roy said. I dont think theres much to be said there. I thought we played well in front of him.Colorado defenceman Erik Johnson left the ice after being checked into the boards in the third period, but Roy said he hadnt talked to the trainer about his status.Both teams had power-play chances late in regulation.With 3:32 left in the game, Jets forward Mathieu Perreault was called for holding, giving the Avalanche their fourth power play of the game.

Alex Tanguay also added an assist, putting him on a four-game point streak (3G, 2A).Duchene said the Avalanche played hard and had chances, but the Jets neutralized their speed and skill.We easily could have won that hockey game, Duchene said. Kind of a flukie one at the end there. I still dont know how it ended up in the net. Even their first one there, tipped by Ladd in the front.Things got heated with 4:01 left in the second period after Jets forward Dustin Byfuglien checked Barrie hard into the boards. Mitchell then came at Byfuglien, who smashed him to the ice, too.Mitchell was assessed four minutes for roughing and Byfuglien, who assisted on Littles goal, got a roughing minor.Winnipeg heads out for a four-game road trip, starting Tuesday against the New York Islanders.The Avalanche, who had a dominating 7-3 home win Friday against Vancouver, return home for a game against San Jose on Tuesday.
