Avalanche Expected To Face Winless Flames

The Colorado Avalanche visit the winless Calgary Flames as Colorado looks to rebound from a 3-2 loss to Winnipeg, despite outshooting the Jets 34-19. Colorado opened the season 2-1 and has scored 16 goals in three games, with Nathan MacKinnon and Artturi Lehkonen among its leading contributors. Calgary, 0-3, is seeking its first win after a difficult start marked by poor even-strength scoring and a wide overall goal differential. The teams are meeting in the second game of Colorado’s back-to-back, while the Flames hope lineup adjustments and home ice help them turn around their slide.
