Avalanche/Canucks clash set for Saturday
Vancouver can extend its win streak to 5 games Saturday, while the Avalanche will be looking to snap it.
Colorado brings a 3-3-1 overall mark (2-1-0 in the division) into this game versus a Vancouver team carrying a 6-1-1 record.
In a game that potentially could see plenty of scoring, the total opened high, at 6.5. The line opened at 205 in favor of the Canucks.
Last time out, at Rexall Place against Edmonton, the Avalanche as underdogs defeated the Oilers 7-1. The game was an over play.
The Canucks come off a 3-2 win against the Coyotes, a game where they were a 245 favorite. The game went under the closing total of 6.
This game is likely to come down to the Avalanche's execution on offence. They rank 3rd in the league in scoring and look to sustain their 4.3 goals per game average against the Canucks' #12-rated defensive unit.
