The Colorado Avalanche are on the road and the west coast for a showdown with the San Jose Sharks. This is the first round of SJS vs. COL since the business move that saw Nikolai Kovalenko and Georgeiv (with picks) for Givani Smith and new starting goalie Mackenzie Blackwood. Georgiev might be chomping to exact revenge against the team that dealt him. Will Kovelnko score on the Avs? Will Colorado show why they made the move?
