DENVER - The Colorado Avalanches frantic finish more than made up for a bad first period.Zach Redmond scored his second goal of the game with 1:35 remaining, and the Avalanche rallied to beat the Carolina Hurricanes 4-3 on Saturday night.Jarome Iginla had a goal and an assist, and Erik Johnson also scored for the Avalanche, who have won three of four. Calvin Pickard had 17 saves in relief of Reto Berra to earn his first NHL win.With the time Ive been here Im feeling more and more comfortable, Pickard said.Colorado trailed 3-2 late but controlled play for most of the third period. Iginla tied it 3-3 at 14:43, and Redmond pinched in from the blue line to record his first career multi-goal game.The puck was kind of moving down low, Redmond said. Me and Iggy had talked about it earlier on the power play, me creeping down there. I was able to time it right, and he put a perfect pass on my tape and made it easy for me.Carolina pulled goalie Cam Ward for an extra skater with a minute left, but couldnt tie it. Ward finished with 31 saves.Nathan Gerbe, Andrej Nestrasil and John-Michael Liles scored for the Hurricanes, who have lost five of six after a 5-0-1 stretch.The Hurricanes struggled to score during their recent slide, managing just two goals during a three-game losing streak.Their offence woke up in the first period, but was silent the rest of the way against the banged-up Avalanche. They had a chance to go up three goals early in the second period but Pickard made a glove save on Alexander Semins shot from in close and then scooped the puck off the goal line.Its 3-1 and the puck is on the goal line, and Sems has a shot there, Carolina coach Bill Peters said. Maybe it goes to 4-1 and it turns out different.Colorados injury woes forced the Avalanche to recall an entire line from Lake Erie of the AHL.Tomas Vincour, Andrew Agozzino and Ben Street made their debuts after the team was hit hard by injuries. Dennis Everberg (separated shoulder) and Alex Tanguay (facial fracture) were hurt on Thursday. Jamie McGinn is battling back pain, and John Mitchell sustained a leg injury in practice on Friday.That is on top of the injury to No. 1 goalie Semyon Varlamov, who is out because of a groin strain. Berra struggled in his second straight start and gave way to Pickard after allowing three goals on 10 shots.Pickards performance helped prevent Carolina from getting its first win in Denver. The last time the franchise won here was Feb. 9, 1996, when the team was the Hartford Whalers.He stood on his head, Redmond said of Pickard.The Hurricanes looked like they would end the drought with a big first period. Liles beat Berra 3:48 in, and Gerbe made it 2-0 just 82 seconds later with a shot through traffic.It was Liles first goal of the season, and it came in his first game against his former team.It was pretty emotional, said Liles, who was with the Avalanche from 2004-11. A lot of friends, a lot of good memories and its a different feeling on this side. It would have been nice to get the win along with the goal, but it was still a nice feeling coming back to this building and getting the start from Coach, too.Colorado got some life when Redmond scored midway through the first. His centring pass to Agozzino went off the skate of Carolina defenceman Andrej Sekera and past Ward to cut the lead in half.Nestrasil chased Berra with a soft goal to the short side at 16:50 of the first to put the Hurricanes ahead 3-1.Johnson cut the lead to one with his fourth goal at 8:25 of the second period.

NEW YORK -- If Martin St. Louis wasnt a fan favourite during his first two months with the New York Rangers, he certainly became one during a very emotional weekend. St. Louis came to New York in March in a deal in which popular team captain Ryan Callahan was shipped to Tampa Bay. When he didnt light up the scoreboard right away, the Madison Square Garden crowd was slow to warm to him. That all changed Sunday night. Three days after the sudden death of his mother, St. Louis scored 3:34 in, and the Rangers avoided elimination for the second straight game by beating the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-1. Game 7 of the Eastern Conference semifinal series is Tuesday in Pittsburgh. New York advanced in the first round with a Game 7 win over Philadelphia. St. Louis rejoined his teammates for Game 5 in Pittsburgh on Friday, after a quick trip to Montreal to be with his family. That dedication inspired his teammates during a 5-1 win and carried over to Sunday. "Its probably one of the cooler things Ive been a part of in my professional career," said Derek Stepan, who earned the first assist on St. Louis goal. "The emotion on that goal is something that I will never forget." Fans were already chanting "Mar-ty, Mar-ty" on his first shift. The cheers got louder after he scored. St. Louis, the first star of the game, patted his heart when he came out to an ovation from the crowd. "Mothers Day, my dad is here, my sister is here," St. Louis said. "Its been a tough time for my whole family. To be able to get the lead in the first period, it was a good one." But not the prettiest of goals. St. Louis got in good position in front of the net. Stepan swiped at the puck in traffic and knocked it off St. Louis right leg and into the net. "I got a pretty good bounce," St. Louis said. "I know (my mother) helped me through this. Its a great win by the guys." Carl Hagelin pushed the Rangers lead to 2-0 just 2:51 later, and Henrik Lundqvist stopped 36 shots to keep Pittsburgh at bay. Derick Brassard made it 3-1 in the second period. Brandon Sutter scored the lone goal for the Penguins, who got 26 saves from Marc-Andre Fleury. The Penguins, who led the series 3-1, failed in their first attempt to advance to the Eastern Conference finals with a 5-1 home loss on Friday. Now the pressure has shifted to them, and frustration is showing. Pittsburgh captain Sidney Crosby took a penalty at the end of the second period that gave the Rangers a power play to start the third. Several scrums also broke out -- including one after the final buzzer. "With a minute left in the game, emotions run high," Crosby said. "I dont think thats why we lost. We put ourselves in a bad position eearly.dddddddddddd We fought hard and tried to get back, but you cant continue to do that in the playoffs. You cant start like that." The team that has scored first has won every game. Under coach Dan Bylsma, the Penguins are 1-7 at home when having a chance to clinch a series. Overall, the Penguins are 2-6 in Game 7s in Pittsburgh. On the flip side, the Rangers are 9-2 in their past 11 games when facing elimination, dating to Game 6 of the first round in 2012 at Ottawa. New York has never won a series it trailed 3-1 and has never beaten the Penguins in the playoffs. Buoyed by another early lead, the Rangers pressed for more, and got it on Hagelins unassisted goal at 6:25. Hagelins initial shot attempt from the left-wing boards was blocked by defenceman Rob Scuderi. Hagelin got to the loose puck in the centre of the left circle and sent a hard backhand sailing past Fleury for his fourth of the post-season. Bylsma burned his lone timeout to try to calm his team that was being outshot 7-2. Pittsburgh reversed that trend and cut its deficit in half before the end of the first. The Penguins started to gain momentum after they killed a roughing penalty against Jussi Jokinen and then received their first power play after Chris Kreider knocked down Jokinen at the edge of the crease with 8:40 left in the period. New York had built its shots edge to 12-3, but then helped the Penguins make the score 2-1. Sutter flung the puck toward the net, and it appeared to hit Rangers defenceman John Moore and then bounce in off the foot of defenceman Kevin Klein near the left post with 3:04 left. Lundqvist was clearly agitated by the late goal by Pittsburgh, which led 15-14 in shots in the first period. The teams both had chances in the middle period, and neither could connect on a pair of power plays. Pittsburgh twice challenged Lundqvist with short-handed breakaways, and the Rangers had a goal waved off at 5:55 when Kreider was called for goalie interference after he was shoved from behind into Fleury by Kris Letang. The Rangers made it 3-1 with 4:30 remaining in the period -- 25 seconds after Mats Zuccarello finished serving a tripping penalty. Brassard lunged, knocked the puck out of the air, and scored his third goal in two games and fourth in the series. Benoit Pouliot earned an assist, giving the line of Pouliot, Brassard, and Zuccarello 12 goals and 15 assists in 10 games -- regular season and playoffs -- against Pittsburgh. NOTES: The Penguins dropped to 9-3 at the Garden in the playoffs and 15-15 overall in Game 6s. ... Lundqvist made his 79th consecutive playoff start, tying Fleury for third place on the NHL list among goalies with one team. ... The Rangers were 0 for 6 on the power play. Pittsburgh was 0 for 4.
