0.5 unit on Colorado +150 (moneyline) (risk 0.5 to return 1.25)
Result:
LOSS

Last year Colorado stormed out of the gate with a blistering start, but it has not been the case this season as they take their 1-3-1 record over the border to take on a team in Montreal that has started strong at 4-1. The Avalanche had been starved for offense, but have to be encouraged by the return of center John Mitchell who recorded a shorthanded goal in his first game back. Mitchell should help boost a power play offense that is a woeful 1-19 on the season, and I think the line has value here. The Avalanche will go with either Berra or Pickard in the net tonight, and I think the energized offense, and the overreaction in the line shows value. The Avalanche have matched up well in this series as they have recorded wins in four of the last five meetings. Back Colorado.
