Giguere stopped Wojtek Wolski, Marek Svatos and Scott Hannan in the shootout after Perry had opened things by getting the puck past Peter Budaj. Giguere has won six of his last seven starts.

Colorado took a 2-1 lead with second-period goals by Jeff Finger and Andrew Brunette, but Niedermayer tied it with a tip-in at 9:23 of the third.
