The Colorado Avalanche will look to snap their 3-game skid when they host the New York Rangers tonight at Ball Arena. The Avs have been decimated with injuries but keep in mind they are still the champs and will not go down without a fight. If you think altitude isn’t a factor for visiting clubs to Colorado, just ask the Rangers who are 0-4 in their last 4 trips to the mountains. The Avs are expected to have Alexandar Georgiev between the pipes and he will be as stingy as always. Georgiev is 11-5-1 with a 2.78 GAA and a .918 SV%. Colorado is a home dog, currently around +130, and are worth considering.
