CENTENNIAL, Colo.--Winners of three straight on the road and with points in each of its last six contests away from Pepsi Center, the Colorado Avalanche looks to keep it solid play in visiting barns going this weekend with two games in California.
Colorado is 6-1-1 in its last eight games and its six-game road point streak (3-0-3) matches a season high. The Avs begin their trek on Friday night at the San Jose Sharks and will play the Anaheim Ducks in a Sunday matinee before returning to Denver.
"I think our commitment to defend on the road has been really good recently," J.T. Compher said following Thursday's practice at Family Sports Center. "We're limiting some good teams to not having a lot of scoring chances, and it's a good recipe to get a win."
