SUNRISE, Fla. -- Ryan OReilly is on a roll. OReilly had a goal and an assist to lift the Colorado Avalanche over the Florida Panthers 3-2 on Friday night. OReilly wasted little time in making his presence felt. His goal came at 1:34 in. Matt Duchene missed a wraparound shot but OReilly grabbed the rebound and sneaked it past Thomas in the corner of the net to make it 1-0. The goal was OReillys team-leading 19th, a new career high, and his fifth in the past six games. "If you put doubt in their minds, thats a huge thing. Getting a couple early is always going to set them back," OReilly said. "We started good and that start won it for us." Jamie McGinn and Paul Stastny also scored for Colorado and Semyon Varlamov made 34 saves. Colorado won for the fifth time in six games. Scottie Upshall scored twice for Florida. Tim Thomas stopped 22 shots. The Panthers lost for the first time in three games. Trailing 3-0, the Panthers scored twice in the third to make it interesting. The Panthers made it 3-1 on Upshalls goal at 5:18 of the third. Tomas Fleischmann swept the puck from behind the net to Upshall in the crease. Upshall pushed the puck past Varlamovs right leg and into the net for his 100th career goal. Tom Gilberts slap shot with 1:43 left in the game from the point deflected off Upshalls foot and past Varlamov, who was screened on the play, and made the score 3-2. "We were playing desperate. I thought we picked up our pace. We were kind of carrying the momentum," Upshall said. The Panthers outshot Colorado 20-6 in the final period, including 15-0 in the last 13:13. "We certainly had urgency in the third. We had a ton of chances to tie it up and it didnt happen," Panthers coach Peter Horachek said. Colorado stretched its lead to 3-0 in the second. OReilly passed from behind the net to McGinn in front and he fired it past Thomas on the stick side with 7:00 left in the period. "Hes been outstanding," McGinn said of OReilly. "Hes been consistent every game. He works hard, on and off the ice and its paying off." Colorado is 26-0-2 when leading after two periods. "We were outstanding in the first two periods.Unfortunately the third was not as good and this is something we have to be better at," Avalanche coach Patrick Roy said. Colorado took a 2-0 lead on Stastnys goal. Gabriel Landeskog passed from the left boards to Stastny in front and he backhanded it past Thomas at 16:13 of the first. In the third period, the Panthers set a dubious franchise record of 38 power play attempts without a power play goal, dating to Nov. 10-Dec. 1, 2010. Its the leagues longest drought since Vancouver went 36 straight during the 2012-13 season.

So I’m not going to be intimidating anybody with my size at all.” Cianfrone has stayed away from social media this week, after receiving some nasty tweets and facebook messages. “Yeah I ignored all of it,” he said following Friday’s Ontario Hockey League game in which his Steelheads beat Sudbury 5-2. “If I say something bad on social media who knows what can happen right?” Cianfrone is the other guy involved in the Connor McDavid fight. “I hoped that he wasn’t hurt because you obviously don’t want anyone getting hurt like that,” said the 19 year-old in his first public comments about the incident. “I kind of felt bad that he did that during a fight because he’s not usually a fighter.” Neither is Cianfrone. “My first fight in the OHL,” he added. “After the fight there I saw him holding his hand when he was coming to the box then I saw him leave. All the guys said he was holding his hands during intermission and said there was something wrong.” McDavid broke a bone in his right hand in the fight. He will miss five to six weeks, and may not be able to suit up for Canada at the World Junior Hockey Championship in Montreal and Toronto. Thee Otters were up 4-0 on the Steelheads Tuesday afternoon, with McDavid having scored the fourth goal to go along with an earlier assist - giving him 51 points in 18 games.dddddddddddd Then 6:10 into the second period, Cianfrone and McDavid dropped the gloves and fought. There was no history of bad blood between the pair. They were teammates for a short while a few years ago – “me and Connor are kind of buddies” - when Cianfrone was with the Toronto Marlies Minor Midget team, and McDavid was called up to play some games with the squad. “It was just a hockey play. I hit him into the boards – a little retaliation there – and then things escalated into the fight. That’s about it. The incident has reignited the entire fighting in hockey debate. A debate Cianfrone doesn’t think is needed. “I think fighting is a part of the game of hockey. If you take out fighting I don’t know how the game is going to be. People are going to be taking cheap shots at each other.” While the eyes have been focused on McDavid – widely considered the top prospect for the 2015 NHL draft and seen as a generational prospec
