Veteran forward Mikhail Grigorenko scored with 28.8 seconds remaining in the third period Sunday to lift the White to a 1-0 victory over the Burgundy in the Avalanche’s annual intrasquad game at the University of Denver’s Magness Arena. Of the veterans in camp, those who didn’t suit up for the game included Jarome Iginla, Blake Comeau, Francois Beauechemin, Fedor Tyutin, and Cody McLeod. Meanwhile, in Toronto Sunday, Team Europe’s 3-2 overtime win over Sweden — with Avalanche forwards Gabe Landeskog and Carl Soderberg — in the semifinals of the World Cup of Hockey means that Matt Duchene, with Canada, will be the only Colorado player in the tournament’s best-of-three final. Center Nathan MacKinnon (Team North America) and Erik defenseman Johnson (United States) are expected to begin skating with the Avalanche Monday after their teams didn’t make it out of the preliminary round, and goaltender Semyon Varlamov watched from the bench as Russia lost to Canada in the Saturday semifinal. Varlamov could rejoin the Avalanche as late as Wednesday and the two Swedes as late as Thursday. The best-of-three Canada-Team Europe final will be Tuesday, Thursday and, if necessary, Saturday, so Duchene could be unavailable until Oct.
