Dead-smack in the middle of their current five-game road trip—the longest of their season—the Flyers will face the top team in the NHL right now (and for the foreseeable future), the Colorado Avalanche.
Flyers @ Colorado Avalanche
When: 9:00p.m. ET
Where: Ball Arena, Denver, Colorado
Seeing as the Avalanche were one of a small handful of teams reportedly interested in trading for Claude Giroux less than two weeks ago, this game could have been an interesting one. In fact, since Giroux, with a full no-movement clause in his contract, selected the Florida Panthers over the Avalanche, it has been speculated that it is this very game that helped make that selection.
