Four. Four points separate dead last and second place in the Central Division as the St. Louis Blues sit seven points ahead of the pack. The Colorado Avalanche look to stay afloat after their 6-3 win against the Chicago Blackhawks Saturday night. Tonight will be the first of 2 meetings against the Carolina Hurricanes. The Cans were toppled by the Anaheim Ducks in a shootout last Sunday. The Avs have posted a 10-7-2 record against the historically mediocre Canes.
It is a good thing this game is at the Can, considering the Avs have posted a 2-4-0 record on the road compared to a 4-1-0 record at home.
