Dream-crushing Andre Burakovsky gave out some more bad vibes on Wednesday. This time to the St. Louis Blues.
The former Capital, skating with Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen on the Avalanche’s first line, scored the team’s first goal of the season.

Burakovsky scored on one-timer on a first-period power play after a centering pass squeaked through the defense and found him in the slot.
Burakovsky, wearing one of the Avs’ new bright blue helmets, let out a big smile as he celebrated with his teammates.
