Friday night hockey is almost here! The Colorado Avalanche are coming off a disappointing overtime loss at home to the Winnipeg Jets where they came out flat and could not generate enough offense from lines not centered by Nathan Mackinnon. Seattle is another team that the Avalanche should beat on paper, but as the early season lineup shuffle is demonstrating, these aren’t the same Avalanche who beat Tampa Bay in six games earlier this year. The lineup is in flux, as Devon Toews will miss to injury, and bring in Kurtis MacDermid along with Dryden Hunt making his Avalanche debut.
