The Colorado Avalanche (51-16-10) are looking for a win at home against the Calgary Flames (32-36-9). Puck drop is scheduled for 7:08 p.m. MT.

Key Stories to Watch

The Avalanche can secure the Presidents’ Trophy for the first time in five years with a victory against the Calgary Flames. If the Avs lose in regulation, a regulation loss for the Carolina Hurricanes will also lock up the No. 1 seed throughout the entire postseason. If the Avalanche fall in OT, the Canes also losing in OT will get the job done.

Nazem Kadri left Tuesday’s game in St. Louis with an upper-body injury after blocking a shot with his hand. Head coach Jared Bednar said Kadri will miss some games, and penciled him in to return next week before the playoffs.

On the road, the Avs have been dominant as of late, winning 12 of 13 away from Ball Arena since Jan. 31. But at home, Colorado is 1-5-1 in its last seven games, with the lone triumph being a 9-2 final score against these very same Flames.

Mackenzie Blackwood gets the nod for the Avs. He’ll go up against Dustin Wolf.
