The Colorado Eagles looked to jump into second place in the Pacific Division tonight if they could snatch another victory against the Coachella Valley Firebirds (SEA). Last night the Eagles continuously crashed the net, and it led to a 5–0 victory. Colorado still suffers from some injury problems with Jean-Luc Foudy, Matt Stienburg and Chad Hillebrand all out with upper-body injuries. This does not include the missing players that the Colorado Avalanche have called up to fill their gaps from licking their wounds.
