DENVER, Oct. 26 (UPI) -- Ryan Smyth's goal in the fifth round of the shootout Saturday night boosted the Colorado Avalanche to a 2-1 win over the Buffalo Sabres.
It was Colorado's fifth win in a row after starting the season with three consecutive losses.
Defenseman Jordan Leopold had scored the tying goal late in the third period. Also in regulation, goalie Peter Budaj stopped 29-of-30 shots.
Buffalo's lone tally came from left wing Daniel Paille at 9:18 of the second period. Goalie Ryan Miller was beaten once on 26 shots in regulation for the Sabres, who have split their last four games.
Colorado right wing Milan Hejduk has four goals and two assists in his last five games, while center Paul Stastny's seven-game point streak ended.
