DENVER (AP) — Colton Sissons put an exclamation point on his run of success against the Colorado Avalanche.The fifth-year center got his second career hat trick and Colorado had two apparent goals nullified by replay reviews as the Nashville Predators beat the Avalanche 4-1 Wednesday night.“Everybody has a team or two they have success against and feel good against and fortunately for me www.senatorsshoponline.com , it’s a team in our division,” said Sissons, who has scored eight of his 26 career goals against Colorado. “They are always tough games (against the Avs), like playoff games, and I like playing in those games. Maybe that’s it.”Sissons’ play has figured in an even bigger run of success by Nashville, which improved to 7-0 on the road this season and extended its regular-season winning streak against Colorado to 11 games.“We just stay focused and do our thing,” Sissons said. “I don’t know if being on the road and only focusing on the road helps us. But we’ve been sharp.”Ryan Hartman added an empty-net goal with 2:54 left for Nashville, which benefited from the nullified goals in sending Colorado to a fourth straight loss.“We know how big it is,” Nick Bonino said. “Those were big challenges. The first one I think you could see; the second was a gusty call. It was game-changing.”Avalanche coach Jared Bednar thought his team’s poor execution might have contributed to the adverse rulings.“I have to try and find the reviews that they have because to me, one could be inconclusive, maybe both, I don’t know,” Bednar said. “But I think our execution was poor. Tape-to-tape passes we’re throwing into guys’ skates even when there aren’t players in between them Ottawa Senators T-Shirts Womens , going offside on goals. That’s part execution, slows down our pace, slows down the tempo of our game.“The two goals getting called back to me is just another aspect of our lack of execution.”Trailing 2-0, the Avalanche had an apparent goal at 1:29 of the second period waived off after a replay review showed the puck had drifted across the blue line, making it offside.
