Colorado at Vegas

Colorado suffered a rare loss on Tuesday with a 4-1 defeat against Dallas that ended the Avalanche's 19-game point streak, but they might have been looking ahead to tonight's matchup against Vegas, the team that knocked them out of the playoffs last year. Pavel Francouz started last night and that means Darcy Kuemper will be back in net with a 23-5-1-1 record 2.45 goals-against average. Backup Laurent Brossoit will fill in for injured Robin Lehner for the Golden Knights, who haven't played since last Wednesday's 6-0 loss to Calgary. Colorado is 12-0 against a team that allowed at least five goals its previous game and the Avalanche have won their last five road games. Also, Colorado is 8-3-2 OVER its last 13 versus the Pacific Division and 6-1 OVER after a home loss by three or more goals. Take the Avalanche as a Max Play, and also play a unit on the OVER.
