Open Thread: Colorado Avalanche at Montreal Canadiens (5:00 p.m.)

After a big comeback in win Toronto the Colorado Avalanche hope to extend their win streak to four against the plucky Montreal Canadiens.

Jared Bednar didn’t give many details this morning on the lineup but the smart bet is to expect the same as the game in Toronto. The team doesn’t have any healthy extras available and therefore Caleb Jones would slot in at forward again.

Miles Wood has joined the team and could play tomorrow night as he recovers from an illness. The talk of the morning is the continued absence of Val Nichushkin which the league has now announced he has entered the player’s assistance program.
