NHL league With the All-Star weekend break approaching, we will see fewer and fewer games. Today, the Colorado Avalanche, who are 2nd in the Western Conference with 60 points, take on the Red Wings, who are bottom of the Eastern Conference with 28 points.
Colorado Avalanche
The Avalanche are playing very well this season and are currently in 2nd place in the Western Conference for good reason. MacKinnon is playing impressively and has already scored 70 points. The Avalanche are also playing well at home. They score an average of 3.8 goals, making them the best offensive home team in the Western Conference. The Avalanche's last home games have also been pretty good, with wins against the Blues twice and against the Sharks, and losses against the Stars and the Penguins, who are much better than the Red Wings. The H2H of the teams is also in the Avalanche's favour, who have won 3 consecutive home games against the Red Wings. Donskoi and Wilson will not play for the Avalanche today.
Detroit Red Wings
As for the Red Wings, the mood is much worse. Before the All-Star break, the team is in last place in the Eastern Conference (16th), well behind the last-place Devils (28 and 41 points respectively). It's a really bad season. And the road record is tragic. The last 10 out of 11 road games have been lost in regulation time. And overall, 19 out of 23 games this season have been unsuccessful. The team scores an average of 2 goals and concedes 4.2. This is the worst ratio in the whole league. Athanasiou, Bernier, DeKeyser, Mantha and Ericsson will not help the Red Wings today.
Choice
So, we are looking at a meeting between two teams with completely different capabilities. We predict that MacKinnon and the team will easily break through the Red Wings' defence and the latter will suffer another road defeat. Maybe even by more than a 2-goal margin. Good luck.
