It’s a Colorado Avalanche game day!
The Colorado Avalanche and the Pittsburgh Penguins face off once again. And of course, we get to see the legendary battle between Sidney Crosby and Nathan MacKinnon, the two Halifax boys.
We will also get to see some familiar faces for the first time since they moved on from the Avs. This includes Lars Eller and Matt Nieto. However, both teams have had opposite starts to the season. Will their stories continue tonight or will we see a different story when the final horn blows?
