This is a 2* play on COL.

The Avs avoided elimination in Game 5 in Dallas, winning 5-3. They are back on home ice tonight, looking to force a Game 7 in Dallas. Colorado had the best home record in the NHL during the regular season, and they have seized the momentum in this series. Here is what I said before Game 3: "The Avs stole home ice advantage in the series with a win in Game 1 in Dallas, and that's great news for Colorado fans as their team had the best home record in the NHL this season. The Avs were 31-9-1 at home, and perhaps aided by the elevation in Denver. Colorado won three of four meetings during the regular season, and they are 7-3 in their last 10 versus Dallas. The Avs lead the playoffs in scoring and they rank second on the power play this post-season.:
