After not having its best effort on Monday night, the Colorado Avalanche is looking to keep its foot on the gas throughout the entire contest tonight when it wraps up a four-game road trip at the San Jose Sharks.
This evening's matchup is the fourth of the year between the Avs and Sharks. Colorado has a 2-1-0 record in the season series but is coming off a 6-2 loss to San Jose two nights ago.
"I think we are feeling good today, we are rested. We are coming off a trip [that includes] playing a back-to-back and travel, and we've had two off days really since we've been [in San Jose]," said head coach Jared Bednar. "Guys are getting what they need as far as recovery and rest, and I sense that we are a hungry group here this morning. We executed well on the ice, we are skating good, I liked the energy and the juice on the ice here this morning. Hopefully that's a good indication on the way we are going to play tonight."
