VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Nov. 13 (UPI) -- Wojtek Wolski and Marek Svatos scored in an overtime shootout Wednesday to give Colorado a 2-1 decision over Vancouver.
Vancouver had a three-game winning streak snapped and suffered its first overtime loss this season. Colorado and Phoenix are the only teams left in the NHL this season without a loss in overtime.
Wolski scored against Roberto Luongo in the first round of the shootout and Alexandre Burrows tied it to open the third round. Svatos then finished things with a goal that brought Colorado its second straight victory.
Peter Budaj made 31 saves to get the victory. Luongo, who had been trying for his fourth straight shutout, stopped 33 shots.
Taylor Pyatt scored on a penalty shot 2:43 into the second period to give the Canucks the lead and Paul Stastny tied it 1:28 deep into the third on the power play. Stastny's goal halted Luongo's shutout streak at 242 minutes, the longest of his career.
