DENVER, May 22 (UPI) -- The NHL Western Conference finals shift to Denver Wednesday night, where the Colorado Avalanche host the Detroit Red Wings in Game Three of the best-of-seven series at the Pepsi Center.
On Monday, Colorado evened the series at one game apiece when Chris Drury scored 2:17 into overtime, giving the Avalanche a 4-3 victory.
The Red Wings have eight goals in the first three games of the series, but six have come from somewhat unexpected sources.
Darren McCarty had a trick in the series opener and Kirk Maltby, Boyd Devereaux and Tomas Holmstrom also have scored.
"Our big guys have to get going," said Coach Scotty Bowman, casting an eye toward star players such as Steve Yzerman, Brett Hull and Luc Robitaille.
Hull is the only member of the Red Wings' top two lines to score.
Bowman said Tuesday he would consider a juggling of the top three lines, depending on the status of center Igor Larianov, who could return Wednesday after missing the first two games of the series with a sprained knee.
