Avalanche extend winning streak to 10 with defeat of Maple Leafs

The Colorado Avalanche beat the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-2 on Monday to extend their league-best winning streak to 10 games.

Jonathan Bernier got the win for the Avalanche, turning aside 29 shots in his first game at Air Canada Centre since being traded away by the Maple Leafs in July 2016.

The victory continued a turnaround season for the Avalanche - who finished with a league-worst 48 points a year ago - as they currently hold the second wild-card spot in the West with 57 points.

Colorado will look to extend its streak Tuesday against the Montreal Canadiens.
