Last place Colorado is a home favorite, getting outscored by -14 goals this season and are a big disappointment. Colorado is #20 in goals scored and #26 in goals allowed with one of the worst power plays in the game (#27). The Avalanche are on an 8-17 run, and are 1-6 against the Western Conference. Colorado just lost to a fast-skating Chicago team at home 3-2, and now faces another young, fast team in Dallas. Dallas had won three in a row before a 5-4 overtime loss to Minnesota on Friday. Dallas is #8 in the NHL in goals scored, so grab the dog and play Dallas.
