The Colorado Avalanche lost 6-2 to the Nashville Predators at Bridgestone Arena on Sunday. A poor defensive showing and ineffective special teams contributed to the defeat, with the Avalanche allowing four power-play goals and failing to convert on three of their own. Artturi Lehkonen and Devon Toews scored for Colorado, but they fell behind early and could not recover. Former Avalanche player Ryan O'Reilly recorded two power-play goals and two assists for Nashville, which dominated the game from start to finish. This loss marks the Avalanche's third consecutive road game with disappointing performances.
