Seemingly invincible at home, Avs welcome East-worst Blue Jackets
The Colorado Avalanche capitalized on shaky goaltending to rout the Ottawa Senators on Thursday night.
They face another team with questions in net when they welcome the Columbus Blue Jackets to Denver on Saturday.
Colorado brings a 16-game home winning streak into Saturday's matinee matchup and has yet to lose in regulation on its ice (18-0-2). The Avalanche lost two straight in regulation heading into this season-long seven-game homestand and snapped that with an 8-2 win over Ottawa.
