Columbus at Colorado

Columbus is a long way from home with a bad offense, 24th in goals scored. They had to play last night, so why would they want to play an uptempo game in the thin mountain air of Denver? The UNDER is 6-2 when the Blue Jackets play on no days rest. Last place Colorado has been a big disappoinment and it starts with offense, 23rd in goals scored and 25th on the power play. The Avalanche beat the Oilers Friday, 2-1, as Semyon Varlamov had 27 saves in regulation and overtime. They are 16-6-1 UNDER the total after allowing two goals or less in their previous game, plus they have a Top 10 penalty killing unit. Colorado is also 22-6-2 UNDER the total in Sunday get-away games, so don't look for much offense. Play this one UNDER the total.
