It's very apparent these two teams are going to be the class of the conference. I think Colorado has an edge simply due to the MacKinnon factor, but I don't think there are many teams that could hang with the Avalanche the way we have tonight.
I say this fully aware that the Flames have gone with a very vanilla gameplan - this feels like a game the players have to win for themselves.
First hot take of the year: I protect Kylington over Andersson, and it's not close, nor any disrespect to Rasmus.
