It’s a Colorado Avalanche game day!
The Colorado Avalanche continues its road trip out East with a Sunday night matchup against the New Jersey Devils. It will be the team’s third game in four days on the trip, really testing the limits and travel at hand.
After an off-year last year, the Devils are right on track to be in the playoff picture this season. When these two teams met last season, New Jersey took care of business in a 5-3 win and looking to replicate the same.

NOTE: Don’t be surprised if the Avs cycle some players for this game just to get some fresh bodies in after last night’s game. John Ludvig could enter for Keaton Middleton, and Nikita Prishchepov could enter for Chris Wagner, or one or neither happens. We won’t know until the team comes out for warmups.
