Game Preview: Avalanche at Blues

Fresh off a 4-3 win last night in Nashville, the Avs travel to St. Louis to take on a Blues team that hasn't allowed a goal in four games.

The Colorado Avalanche continue their brutal season-concluding stretch tonight against the St. Louis Blues, who are the hottest team in the Western Conference, winning twelve of their last ten games. The most remarkable part? They've recorded shutouts against their opponents the past four games, three by starting goalie (and briefly tenured Avalanche) Brian Elliot and one by backup Jake Allen. Colorado, trailing the Minnesota Wild by three points for the final Wild Card spot, are desperate for wins and will have to do so on the second night of a back-to-back.
