The Colorado Avalanche will be laying a lot of chalk tonight when they visit the Anaheim Ducks but they should be. The Ducks are in a funk, losing 3 straight, 7 of their last 9 since the break, and will be without some of their heavy hitters: Troy Terry, Cam Fowler, among others. The Avs on the other hand are hot. Colorado has won 8 of their last 9 and are averaging 4.3 goals per game. They are also 6-0 in the last 6 meetings with the Ducks and 4-1 in their last 5 trips to the Pond.
TONIGHT’S PICK: COLORADO AVALANCHE
