## Resource

The Cale Makar-less Avalanche drop Game 1 of the Western Conference Final to the Vegas Golden Knights, and trail the series 1-0. Despite a late comeback attempt for the Avalanche, trailing 3-0 was too much to overcome this time after a lackluster first two periods. What can they adjust to tie the series in Game 2, and will Cale Makar be back?
