The Colorado Avalanche tied Tampa up early in the second period thanks to Nathan MacKinnon, but the Avs weren’t done.

Colorado got on the board again, this time from Artturi Lehkonen at 12:28 in the second period to take a 2-1 lead in Game 6. It’s Colorado’s first lead since the early moments of Game 3.

Josh Manson and MacKinnon picked up helpers on the score.
