PITTSBURGH -- Jared Bednars streak is just chugging along.Gabriel Landeskog redirected a shot by Nathan MacKinnon past Marc-Andre Fleury 22 seconds into overtime to lift the Colorado Avalanche and Bednar, their first-year coach, by the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-3 on Monday night.Landeskog tied the game with 6:32 left in regulation with a power-play goal and his second of the night handed the defending Stanley Cup champions their first loss of the season.It was a lucky bounce in overtime, Landeskog said. I think I just took a swing at it.The Avalanche remain unbeaten since Bednar replaced Patrick Roy in August. The won all six of their exhibitions and improved to 2-0 in the regular season, though Bednars own personal winning streak stretches back even farther. The Bednar-led AHLs Lake Erie Monsters ripped off nine consecutive victories last spring on their way to the leagues Calder Cup title, meaning Bednar has walked into the postgame dressing room victorious 17 straight times.Not that hes counting.I didnt think we had our best stuff tonight, thats for sure, Bednar said. I think they outplayed us for the bulk of the game, but we found a way to create enough chances to kind of fight back after a slow start.Jarome Iginla and Patrick Wiercioch also scored for the Avalanche, who never led until Landeskogs game-winner. MacKinnon had two assists and Calvin Pickard stopped 28 shots for Colorado.Weve played two very tight games against two good teams to start us off and being down 2-0 against Dallas in the first game and against Pittsburgh here in Pittsburgh tonight, its not an easy hole to climb out of, Pickard said. But we didnt worry about that.Matt Cullen had a goal and an assist for the Penguins while Phil Kessel and Trevor Daley also scored. Fleury made 27 saves but the Penguins failed to become the first reigning Cup winner since the 1997-98 Detroit Red Wings to start a season 3-0.It was just a weird game, Cullen said. There were a lot of ups and downs. Regardless of how you put it we had the game in control with 7 or 8 minutes left. Were better than we played tonight.The Penguins have still picked up a point in each of their first three games and are surviving just fine without captain Sidney Crosby, who remains out indefinitely while recovering from a concussion. Pittsburgh edged Washington and Anaheim to open the season behind sharp play from Fleury and Kessel, who hasnt missed a beat from his strong play during the Stanley Cup playoffs.Kessel threaded a shot from the left circle between Pickards legs for a power-play goal 8:57 into the game and Cullen slipped a rebound of his own shot by Pickard 37 seconds later to make it 2-0.The Avalanche responded with a flurry of their own later in the period. Iginla ripped a 5-on-3 power-play goal by Fleury 16:27 into the first and Wierciochs shot from just inside the blue line 83 seconds later tied it. Colorado went 2 for 6 on the power play overall, and six of Pittsburghs seven total penalties were stick-related infractions like hooking and tripping.I felt a lot of them were avoidable, coach Mike Sullivan said. Weve got to be more responsible with our sticks. We cant put ourselves in positions where we give referees the opportunity to make those type of calls.Still, Pittsburgh appeared to be in control when Daley hammered a slap shot through traffic to put Pittsburgh back in from 9:12 into the third period but Landeskog buried a shot by Fleury less than four minutes later to send it to overtime.Game notes Crosby skated on his own Monday morning and there remains no timetable for his return. He had a good workout (this morning), Sullivan said. Well see how he responds. Hes making progress, but those injuries are day-to-day. ... The Penguins went 2 for 5 on the power play. ... Iginlas goal was his 191st on the power play, moving him into sole possession of 21st on the all-time list ahead of Pierre Turgeon. ... Both teams had goals waved off. Colorados Andreas Martinsens goal was disallowed because he kicked it in. Evgeni Malkins third-period goal was overturned on replay due to goaltender interference.UP NEXTAvalanche: Continue a four-game road trip with a visit to Washington on Tuesday night.Penguins: Hit the road for the first time when they play at Montreal on Tuesday.
