Colorado rookie forward T.J. Galiardi's first career NHL goal
was named the Avalanche's "Play of the Week" for the March 27-April
2 timeframe. The tally, which came on March 27 against Vancouver,
earned 49.38% of fan voting. Galiardi played at Dartmouth.
Galiardi's goal topped John-Michael Liles' marker on March 29 in
Anaheim (26.17%) and Andrew Raycroft's save of a Matthew Lombardi
shot on April 1 (24.44%).
The play now automatically qualifies for Colorado’s year-end
“Play of the Year” bracket-style tournament – to
be determined by Avalanche fans.
Be sure to check back each Friday during the season, as three new
choices for the Avalanche’s “Play of the Week”
will be posted for you to vote upon.
Galiardi’s First Goal – 3/27 vs. Vancouver
T.J. Galiardi potted his first career NHL goal against the
Vancouver Canucks. From behind the Vancouver net, Ian Laperriere
made a feed into the slot to Galiardi. The rookie forward buried a
shot that beat Canucks netminder Jason LaBarbera high to his glove
side at the 13:25 mark of the opening period.
