San Jose trailed 4-1 in the third period when forwards Collin Graf and Colin White scored to cut Colorado’s lead to one with 2:19 left in regulation time. But Megna and Tye Felhaber scored empty net goals for the Eagles, who took a 1-0 lead in the best-of-five playoff series that continues Sunday at 6 p.m. in San Jose. “Overall, I thought it was a pretty evenly played game,” Barracuda coach John McCarthy said.
