After another blown game against a team ahead of them in the standings, the Avalanche (33-30-4) return to the ice to take on Alex Tanguay and the Arizona Coyotes (28-31-6).
With 15 games remaining in the season, the Avalanche have worked themselves into a rough situation. In two games against the wildcard teams ahead of them, the Avs have failed to even register a point. Now the team finds themselves sitting four points out of the final wildcard spot and struggling to finish games. If there is one positive for the Avalanche, it's their schedule. Six of the team's next seven games are against non-playoff teams.
