With the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs looming larger, the Colorado Avalanche have a big task ahead of them facing off against the Winnipeg Jets. It hasn’t been a pretty end to the regular season for the Avs, but they benefit knowing they all but don’t have home-ice advantage, and know who they’ll be facing for a week leading up to the start of the series.
Winnipeg’s offense looked as though they’d struggle with the loss of Pierre-Luc DuBois to the Los Angeles Kings during the offseason. But, they filled the holes brilliantly and are a driving force on offense to produce consistent scoring.
