We like the Colorado Avalanche to defeat the Detroit Red Wings on Tuesday at 9:07pm ET for a number of reasons. Here are some of the more important ones:

Colorado has been very good since adding Necas to its team. -- 10-2 it's L12 games this season.

The Avalanche are 19-10-1 against opponents from the Eastern Conference this year.

They are also 23-10-2 in all home games on the campaign.

Detroit played last night in a very close and competitive game against Utah.

The travel will hurt a Red Wings team who are 0-6 over their L6 road games.

We're on the Avs to win by two or more goals on Tuesday.
