The Avalanche lost 3-1 to the Boston Bruins at TD Garden on Saturday. Artturi Lehkonen scored for Colorado while Scott Wedgewood stopped 12 of the 14 shots he faced. The Avalanche posted 27 shots on goal, including a pair from Martin Necas in his Colorado debut.

But Nikita Zadorov is one of the more aware athletes that you’ll find and, after the B’s structured 3-1 win over the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday at the Garden, he’d like nothing more than to force management to hold its cards after team president Cam Neely said recently that a retool could be on the table.
