Chicago at Colorado

Last place Colorado has been a big disappointment at #20 in the NHL in goals scored and #26 in goals allowed. They have one of the worst power plays in the game, too (#27). They've just played five of seven on the road and come home from a win at Arizona last night that took a lot of energy, rallying from a big deficit. The Avalanche are 4-9 against a team with a winning record. Rested Chicago is in town not having played since Sunday. Chicago is #8 in goals scored, second in goals allowed with the best penalty killing in the NHL. The Blackhawks have won five of their last seven games and the team is 45-21 against a team with a losing record. Play Chicago.
