In an uncommon occurrence for the 2020-21 season, the Colorado Avalanche takes on the Minnesota Wild this evening for one game only. The contest is a make-up from the Feb. 4 outing that was postponed due to NHL COVID-19 protocols.
Colorado has previously played every opponent this year in two, three or four-game series. The Avs will be wrapping up a two-game set at Ball Arena after falling 3-0 on Monday to the Vegas Golden Knights, which was the final contest of four straight versus the club from the desert.
