Colorado at Columbus

The Avalanche is catching fire as they have posted wins in their last three. With Raycroft behind the net, they have posted seven straight and nine of 10 overall. The Blue Jackets have been very inconsistent on the offensive end in their last 10. In six of those games they have totaled just six goals or one per game and have been shutout three times. The Avalanche are a potent team with two day’s rest as they are 78-37-8 off of a two-day break, and the Jackets are just 19-40 last 59 against the West. This is a good spot for a live dog, so the Avalanche get the call.
