When the Colorado Avalanche take on the Winnipeg Jets, they have a difficult task ahead of them as the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs get closer. Although the Avs’ regular season hasn’t ended well, they do gain by knowing who they’ll be playing a week before the series begins and that they don’t have home-ice advantage.
With Pierre-Luc DuBois gone to the Los Angeles Kings in the offseason, Winnipeg’s offensive appeared to be in trouble. However, they did a fantastic job of covering the gaps and are a major offensive factor that results in steady scoring.
