Colorado Avalanche Must Come Together without MacKinnon
The Colorado Avalanche are set to play their second game of the road trip tonight in Edmonton against the Oilers.
The Colorado Avalanche have embarked on their Canadian tour. At the time of writing, they’re one point out of a playoff spot with one game in hand over the Minnesota Wild. Edmonton is #25 in the NHL.
The Avalanche are coming off a 4-3 overtime loss to the Vancouver Canucks (#37 in the NHL) preceded by two losses just before the All Star Break. That, of course, was preceded by their 10-game winning streak.
The Oilers haven’t played since January 25, a full week ago. They beat the Calgary Flames in the shootout.
