The Golden Knights opened their six-game homestand with a 4-2 loss to the Colorado Avalanche on Friday, spoiling the annual Nevada Day matinee.

Kurashev took pass from Alexander Wennberg, went in and beat Avalanche goalie Mackenzie Blackwood with a shot to the glove side as the Sharks improved to 4-2-0 their last six games after a 0-4-2 start. They now play the Detroit Red Wings on Sunday in the second of back-to-back games on home ice.
