COLORADO AT CALGARY, 2 p.m. Saturday, ALT, 950 AM
Spotlight on: Johnny Gaudreau. The Flames’ forward had a goal and two assists in Thursday’s 5-2 win at Arizona to give him 73 points (20 goals). He is the NHL’s second-leading scorer behind Tampa Bay winger Nikita Kucherov (80). The Avalanche has not had success containing elite forwards like Gaudreau — as evidenced by the four goals scored by Connor McDavid in Colorado’s 4-2 and 3-2 (overtime) losses to Edmonton on Sunday and Thursday — and Colorado will play without top defenseman Erik Johnson for the third consecutive game.
