The Colorado Avalanche are set to skate in Edmonton tonight to face the Oilers. This is the second of Colorado’s three-game road trip.
The two teams have faced each other twice already this season. Their first match on February 1 was an overtime win for the Avalanche. The second game came just a few days ago — February 18 when the Avalanche were overcome by Connor doing his McDavid thing.
Oh, and one of our best players and the best defenseman we’ve got went down with an “upper body injury” after a collision with Anton Slepyshev.
