Artturi Lehkonen News: Scores fluky goal

Lehkonen scored a goal on two shots and added two hits in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Stars in Game 1.

Lehkonen didn't get any bounces to go his way late in the regular season -- he was limited to four assists over his last 16 outings before missing the Avalanche's game against the Ducks last Sunday due to a lower-body injury. However, his return to action in Game 1 saw him score when the puck bounced in off his skate after he was knocked off his feet midway through the second period. The veteran winger produced a career-high 27 goals and added 18 assists over 69 regular-season outings, and prior to this year, he had 23 goals and 20 assists over 71 NHL playoff contests. He can elevate his game and provide top-six scoring when it matters most.
