It’s a Colorado Avalanche game day!
The second game of a five-game homestand for the Colorado Avalanche comes in front of a national audience. It also comes against none other than Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins.
Both teams are headed in opposite directions of one another, with the latter of the two looking to steer back in the right direction. A similar 4-0 result Pittsburgh had on home ice way back in October would help their case greatly, but it’s a very different Avs team they’re facing today.
