With a 4-0 thrashing of the Avalanche, the red snake continues on its current rise. It moves to 2.829 points below the black line, the closest it has been since the completion of game #31. The red snake is one point below the green snake, and can be above it for the first time all season with a win on Friday against Vancouver. Like a stock facing a ceiling, it will be nice to bust through that ceiling, and make the green snake the floor. The green snake loses its next two games, and with a home and home against Vancouver, it's a great opportunity. The red snake is now 4 points above the purple snake. With a win in the next game, it would be 6 points, and would be the largest gap all season. After game #9, there was a 5 point gap. This is a big weekend for the red snake. Four more straight wins are required to get above the black line.
