The Colorado Avalanche kick off their post-All-Star break against the New York Rangers.
The Colorado Avalanche look to maintain their excellent position in the Western Conference tonight as they play against the New York Rangers. The Rangers are one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference, sporting a 30-16-3 record and 63 points.
Conversely the Avalanche are second in the Western Conference with a 32-14-3 record and 67 points. They are also 7-3-0 in their last 10 games and presently on a three game win streak.
All those factors considered, this should be a great match up.
