NHL Team Stats, Key Players, & Injury reports

Ottawa Senators (19-18-7)

Ottawa Senators are 6-3-1 out of the last 10 games, coming into this game on a 4 game winning streak, and hope reach a season high 5 game win streak against the Avalanche. After a 4 game winning streak Ottawa is now right behind Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs in the Atlantic Division. The Senators are in range to get one of the Eastern Conference’s two wild card spots into the Stanley Cup Playoffs.

Colorado Avalanche (26-12-4)

Colorado Avalanche are 4-3-3 out of the last 10 games, 3-2 in the last 5 home games, and has a home game record of 15-6-2. Yes Colorado lost their last game 4-3 but this doesn’t take away from the fact that the Avalanche is a strong home team. Another win here will keep Minnesota Wild off Colorado heels going into the playoffs.
