T.J. Hughes had two assists as Colorado improved to 15-4-0 in its last 19 games against Chicago. Devon Toews scored an empty-net goal with 2:22 left, and Mackenzie Blackwood finished with 21 saves.
Chicago dropped to 1-5-1 in its last seven games. Forward Patrick Kane departed in the second period with an unspecified injury, and defenseman Bowen Byram missed his eighth consecutive game with an upper-body injury.
The banged-up Blackhawks jumped out to a 2-0 lead on first-period goals by defenseman Wyatt Kaiser and rookie Roman Kantserov. Connor Bedard extended his point streak to six games with an assist on Kantserov's sixth goal on a 2-on-1 rush.
The Avalanche rallied with two goals in 26 seconds. Kadri poked home a loose puck on the goal line at 15:23, and a wide-open Schwartz scored from the left circle at 15:49.
Colorado grabbed its first lead after Bedard was sent off for holding Kadri 13:10 into the second period. Kadri got a piece of Cale Makar's wrist shot from just inside the blue line.
Kadri has four goals this season — all in the last six games.
Schwartz made it 4-2 when he beat Spencer Knight for his fifth goal in the final seconds of the second. He has three goals and an assist in his last three games.
Avalanche: At the Columbus Blue Jackets on Tuesday night.
Blackhawks: At the Florida Panthers on Wednesday night.
