Tonight is a big one for the Colorado Avalanche. Sitting tied for the second Wildcard position in the West, the Avs need to figure out how to get the road win that has been eluding them for the past few weeks. After two straight overtime losses, a win tonight would be huge.
Tonight's opponent is a Columbus Blue Jackets team that has won two straight games and has a very impressive 20-11-2 record at home. Columbus is in a playoff race of their own as they have only a two-point cushion on the Florida Panthers for the final wildcard spot of in the East.
