Just unfortunate,\u201d Pinto said. \u201cIt just kind of got away from us in the second.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was frustrating. When you lose 8-2, obviously it\u2019s just frustrating.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Ottawa appeared to have scored to make it 3-2 at 6:15, but Colorado successfully challenged the play for being offside and a video review overturned the goal.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt&#8217;s probably only about a two or three minute push in there where they score and then score again on the offside goal,\u201d Bednar said. \u201cThat was pretty obvious it was offside, but I just think, like, at that point you have to turn it. One goal going in and another one, even though it was offside, that&#8217;s enough.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd I thought our guys did a good job doing that, getting back on track right away. And the power play helped with that, right. Kind of backed them off again. They took a penalty, we scored. They took another one, we scored again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Necas scored a power-play goal at 11:46 to make it 4-1. His one-timer from the bottom of the left circle went short side off Sogaard.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Makar pushed it to 3-0 after MacKinnon dropped a pass to Makar inside the blue line, and the&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":397864,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[433],"tags":[49,48,448,82],"class_list":{"0":"post-397863","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-nhl","8":"tag-ca","9":"tag-canada","10":"tag-nhl","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/397863","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=397863"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/397863\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/397864"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=397863"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=397863"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=397863"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
