Calgary at Colorado

Last place Colorado is finally playing up to some of its talent on a 7-3 run. The Avalanche sat 10 points out of the playoff picture on March 3rd, but now trail Los Angeles by six after winning four of the last five. Gabriel Landeskog has paced Colorado with eight goals and seven assists over a 13-game stretch that has seen nine Avalanche wins -- tied for fourth-most in the NHL in that span. They are home against a Calgary team in a tough situational spot, its 8th road game in 10 contests, plus the Flames are 10-27 in the fourth game of a 4-in-6 situation. Calgary is also 20-9-3 UNDER the total on the road against a team with a winning home record, while Colorado is on a 4-1-1 run UNDER, including 15-6-2 UNDER the total against a team with a winning record. Look for a defensive game and a one-sided win by the home team. Take Colorado on the puckline and the game total UNDER.
