Avalanche 3, Oilers 1: Jamie McGinn scored his first goal of the season to snap a tie in the second period and Semyon Varlamov turned aside 25 shots as Colorado remained undefeated at the Pepsi Center.

PA Parenteau scored his sixth goal - and fourth in as many games - and Paul Stastny added his third goal in two contests. Matt Duchene had a pair of assists for the Avalanche, who opened their season high-tying four-game homestand by avenging Monday's 4-1 setback to the Oilers.

Top overall pick Nail Yakupov scored his fifth goal this season - and second versus Colorado - and Sam Gagner had an assist to extend his point streak to eight games. Devyn Dubnyk finished with 37 saves for the Oilers, who finished 1-1-1 on their three-game road trip.

Just under 3 1/2 minutes after Parenteau leveled the contest, McGinn gave Colorado the advantage after skating to the net and deflecting Duchene's shot past Dubnyk with 4:24 remaining in the second period.

Yakupov opened the scoring just 58 seconds into the game after converting a 2-on-1 rush. Parenteau forged a 1-1 tie midway into the second period after deflecting a point shot past Dubnyk mere moments after Colorado killed off a power play.
