The Colorado Avalanche (13-7-2) is back at home to host the Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday after finishing its five-game road trip with a 3-2-0 record.
Colorado fell 3-2 to the Minnesota Wild on Thursday after a two-goal effort from Cale Makar tied the game in the second period. Makar leads all NHL rookies in with 25 points (seven goals, 18 assists) and a plus-9 rating. He is also one of only two first-year skaters that have played more than 20 games who hasn't spent any time in the penalty box.
The Avs have scored 11 power-play goals at home, led by Nathan MacKinnon's four, and are currently tied for the fifth most in the league. MacKinnon has notched 32 points (13 goals, 19 assists) this season and is the sixth highest point-getter in the league.
