DENVER -- Gabriel Landeskog will think twice about engaging in fights with opposing goaltenders.The reason is painfully simple: That blocker hurts ... and hes got a mask to protect himself, the Colorado captain cracked.Soon after exchanging some shoves with Minnesota goalie Devan Dubnyk, Landeskog got the ultimate retaliation -- the winning goal. Landeskog scored with 9:37 remaining, Calvin Pickard stopped 32 shots for his second NHL shutout and the Avalanche beat the Minnesota Wild 1-0 on Saturday.It didnt come easy for us, thats for sure, Avalanche coach Jared Bednar said.Nothing seems to these days for the Avalanche, who won for the second time in six games.Landeskogs power-play goal ended a Colorado scoring drought that lasted more than 164 minutes. He found the net on a pass from Matt Duchene and then hopped into the arms of Nathan MacKinnon in excitement.Earlier in the third period, Landeskog got into a brief scuffle with Dubnyk after agitating the goalie in front of the net. That seemed to swing the momentum into Colorados favor. A jarring hit by John Mitchell near the blue line didnt hurt, either.Those two instances energized our crowd, which energized us, Bednar said. You knew they were going to have a push.The Wild did at that.With Dubnyk on the bench for an extra skater, Charlie Coyle knocked in a shot with 48.9 seconds remaining, but it was disallowed because of goaltender interference. The officials ruled that Minnesota forward Eric Staal pushed Avalanche defenseman Erik Johnson into Pickard.How good of call that was depends on the side thats asked.The goalie was in a terrible position, Staal said. We made a huge play on it. They gave them the benefit of the doubt on it.Pickard had a different take.You could see their guy kind of pushed E.J. into me, Pickard explained. I think thats the criteria for goalie interference -- doesnt let me do my job. I couldnt slide over there.Pickards most opportunistic save of the night was with 5 minutes remaining, when he closed his pads at the last second to save a shot from trickling in.It was a big save for me, said Pickard, whose other shutout was Jan. 14 against New Jersey. We had a really good game all the way through.Dubnyk mixed it up Landeskog after the two were jostling in front of the net early in the third period. Dubnyk put Landeskog in a headlock as players raced over to separate them. Dubnyk was called for slashing and roughing while Landeskog drew only a roughing penalty. The Avalanche didnt score on the power play chance.I gave him a whack and he gave me a whack and we gave each other a few shots and somehow I ended up with one, said Dubnyk of drawing the extra penalty. That seemed to be how they did the third period there. Not a big deal. Its always a tough game when we play these guys. Its part of the game. Theres emotion in the game.The Wild were called for two penalties on one play early in the second period. First, Ryan Suter slashed Blake Comeau with the Colorado forward on a breakaway. As Comeau went into the boards, Matt Dumba was whistled for a cross-checking penalty. Colorado a two-man advantage for a full two minutes, but never challenged Dubnyk.Wild coach Bruce Boudreau wasnt pleased.I thought there were some pretty cheesy penalties out there, Boudreau said.Game notes Minnesota LW Zach Parise and D Marco Scandella both missed a third game with lower-body injuries. ... Avalanche RW Jarome Iginla played in his 1,484th NHL game to tie Rod BrindAmour for 19th on the career list. ... Mikko Rantanen took a puck in the face during the first period and briefly went into the locker room for treatment. He had the second assist on Landeskogs goal. ... Mitchell cleared waivers Saturday and was back on the fourth line.UP NEXTWild: Dont play again until Thursday in Pittsburgh.Avalanche: Visit St. Louis on Sunday. Wholesale Air Max 97 .

Josh Hodgson v Peter WallaceBoth hookers have been one of the key components in their sides charge to the semi-final. Hodgson has been the most accomplished No.9 this season and is so dangerous in attack around the ruck.Wallace made a surprise move from the halves to hooker earlier this year, but the shift by Panthers coach Anthony Griffin has proved to be a masterstroke.Wallace combines perfectly with Matt Moylan, Nathan Cleary and Bryce Cartwright in the Panthers unorthodox offensive structure.How fit Hodgson is remains to be seen after he battled an ankle injury in the lead-up.But when he drifts across field anything can happen.Matt Moylan v Jack Wighton.Moylan was superb in the Panthers comprehensive elimination final win over Canterbury last weekend and he is the fulcrum of the Panther attack.However he can be a little suspect under the high ball.Wighton plays it as tough as anyone and is fantastic in defence and running the ball out of his own end, even if he does not have hands as silky as Moylans.The wet conditions expected in Canberra might prrove more to Wightons liking and less open to Moylans expansive style.ddddddddddddIosia Soliola v Trent MerrinAfter returning from Super League, Soliola has been at the heart of everything for Canberra this year.Merrins move to the Panthers has been no less of a successful.The former NSW back-rower had arguably his best game for the Panthers in the win over Canterbury last week, while the Raiders struggled as the game went on against the Sharks.Keeping up their early intensity throughout the game will be crucial for the Raiders and Soliola is key here.Bryce Cartwright v Joey LeiluaNo doubt coach Ricky Stuart will aim Raiders wrecking ball at Cartwright on the visitors right edge.Leilua was down on involvement last week in the loss to Cronulla and that spells bad news for the Panthers.Cartwrights defence has been suspect at times this year and if he tries to grab at Leiluas jumper too often he will find nothing but thin air.
