The Colorado Avalanche are heading to the postseason for a fourth straight year. However, this season one round win won’t be satisfying enough. To start their playoff run, the Avs match up against the 2019 Stanley Cup winners, the St. Louis Blues. While members of that team are still around, this has been a much different St. Louis team so far. Here is everything you need to know heading into the series.
History
The last time these two teams matched up in the playoffs was all the way back in 2001, where the Avs beat the Blues four games to one in the Western Conference Finals, eventually winning it all in seven against the New Jersey Devils.
