“My first playoffs, you’re on edge a little bit more. Now I feel like I know what to expect. The Jets fans were great and we kind of fed off of them. It was a great start for us, but it’s time to win some games here.”Backup goaltender Justus Annunen was “still sick,” according to Bednar. He missed Game 1 and the team’s optional Monday practice because of an illness. The Avs recalled Ivan Prosvetov, and he was expected to dress and back up Alexandar Georgiev for Game 2.
