The Anaheim Ducks and Las Vegas Knights tied 2-2 and are heading into their fifth game tomorrow, but tonight, the Colorado Avalanche is set to face off against the Minnesota Wild in its fourth game of the second round of the playoffs. If youâve been tuned into the Avalanche recently, youâd know that the Wild smashed its six-game postseason win streak out of the water on Saturday.
âIt just felt like we were on our heels for most of the night,â Avalanche right defenseman Cale Makar said. âItâs gonna happen, but weâve got to find a different way to respond next game.â
Colorado was on track to match, if not best, its program streak record in the playoffs this year, with its longest streak burning through seven games back in the 2022 playoffs, where it last brought home the Stanley Cup as it defeated the Tampa Bay Lightning.
While the team may have lost what would have been a chance at yet another program-record postseason streak, it still has a fighting chance to advance to the third round of the playoffs. If they work on improving their response on the ice, then itâs likely Avalanche fans will be cheering Colorado on all the way to the Stanley Cup finals.
Tonightâs game will take place at 7 p.m. CDT and will be available to stream on ESPN.
