NHL’s Colorado Avalanche tainted the Detroit Red Wings perfect winning record on their Tuesday match. The Red Wings had their first loss of the season when Colorado Avalanche chased their two-goal lead and Brandon Yip scored a shootout win in the sixth round.

The Colorado Avalanche have won the Stanley Cup twice, in 1996 and 2001. The ice hockey team was founded in Quebec and they were previously called Quebec Nordiques until they moved to Colorado.

The team has a notable rivalry with the Detroit Red Wings since both had already met each other five times between the 1996 and 2002 Western Conference playoffs.

On this day’s game, Brandon Yip made a remarkable shootout win when he fired a wrist shot past the Red Wings goalie, Jimmy Howard. Yip was the only player to score in the shootout giving the Colorado a 5-4 win and a top spot in the Northwest division.

The Colorado originally had a three-goal deficit from the start of the game. The Colorado had to fight back against the 3-1 score when Detroit’s Johan Franzen made his second goal just 13 minutes in the second period.

Colorado’s Ryan O’Reilly scored late in the second period while Daniel Winnik made a goal early in the third period. This led the team to the tie score at 3-3. However, the Red Wings had raced back ahead when Patrick Eaves scored a short-handed goal.

But then, with as little as eight minutes left in regulation, the Avalanche evened the score with the help of David Jones backhand shot from its location.
