I didn't get a chance to see the game, but, am familiar with the feelings of some of the fans here. Going 1-1 in a series isn't insurmountable, and, frankly, if a team is incapable of winning a road game or two, then that team isn't really good enough to make a deep run in a playoff.
Now, your guys winning one in Denver is critical. In watching my team over the last decade, it always seemed that it is game FOUR that is the "must win" game, that is the most likely game to take, on the road, if the series splits to start. So, there is still no need to panic.
Reading about the game, your guys got good enough goaltending, and generated enough chances. So, it is a matter of keeping the consistency, and finding a way to steal Home Ice back.
Looking at the talent on your squad, this is doable.
