    Colorado (11-12-0) at Minnesota (14-7-1), 8:00 p.m. EST

    ST. PAUL, Minnesota (Ticker) -- The Minnesota Wild look to win

    their third straight came when they host the Colorado Avalanche

    on Monday.

    Minnesota scored five power-play goals in its last contest, a

    6-2 triumph at Nashville on Saturday.

    Mikko Koivu had two tallies and an assist in the win and the

    25-year-old center leads the Wild with 16 assists and 24 points.

    He has recorded a point in four straight games.

    Colorado has alternated wins and losses in its last five games

    and is coming off a 4-3 victory against Tampa Bay on Satuday.

    Wojtek Wolski scored twice in the win for the Avalanche, who

    will be without captain Joe Sakic and defenseman Adam Foote due

    to injuries.

    Minnesota has won the last five home meetings with Colorado.
