The improbable double-digit run of victories by the Colorado Avalanche is over.
A 4-2 victory by the Montreal Canadiens over the Avalanche ended Colorado's win streak at 10 games on Tuesday night.
The last time Colorado lost before Tuesday night's defeat was Dec. 27, 2017 against the Arizona Coyotes. The Avalanche started and ended the 10-game run with wins over the Toronto Maple Leafs that came 24 days apart.
Colorado's torrid stretch was the longest win streak in the NHL so far this season.
The Avalanche finished with the worst record in the salary-cap era in 2016-17.
