The Colorado Avalanche will be playing on no rest after defeating the Chicago Blackhawks 4-1 on Wednesday. I still expect them to have enough gas left in the tank to take care of business against a Carolina team that is in a potential flat spot following back-to-back road wins at Calgary and Winnipeg. The Canes will be closing out a road trip on which they're currently 3-0-1, but it'll be a hostile environment in Pepsi Center where the Avs are a solid 10-3-2 on the season. We can also note that Colorado should have its No. 1 netminder Philipp Grubauer back between the pipes as Pavel Francouz got the nod yesterday.

10* play on Colorado Avalanche.
