Taking on the Presidents’ Trophy winning Nashville Predators who came only two victories short of winning it all last spring. Nashville has a ton of talent, size, speed and an outstanding goaltender in Pekka Rinne. The Predators are heavily favored to not only win this series, but are being picked by many to win the Stanley Cup. Nobody is giving the Avalanche a chance in this series but guess what? This Avalanche team is perfectly okay with that.
