Colorado has a winning record overall and plenty to play for. They've won three of four, topping Montreal the last game, 3-2. Owners of the final Wild-Card spot in the Western Conference, the Avalanche are 9-3 when their opponent scores two goals or less in their previous game. Rebuilding Edmonton has plenty of holes at #22 in scoring, #26 in goals allowed. The Oilers have had a tough time keeping pucks out the net while yielding 28 non-shootout goals during a 1-5-1 stretch. Those seven opponents have gone eight for thirty in the power play. They've lost three in a row and the Oilers are 17-65 against the Western Conference. Back Colorado.
