The Colorado Avalanche haven't had much to celebrate this season, so closing out a homestand with a chance to extend their winning streak to three games carries a little meaning.
Three other times this season Colorado has won two straight but failed to make it three in a row, so Saturday night's game against the Ottawa Senators will give the Avalanche a chance to do just that.
They've won two in a row after finding a little offense against Carolina and New Jersey, scoring three goals each night after having just two in their previous four games.
