Colorado Avalanche 3-way ML (-105) over St. Louis Blues
A rematch of last season's Western Conference 2nd round playoff series gets the huge Saturday of action started. The Avalanche won that series in 6 games, and St. Louis has not looked nearly as strong this season. That was already the case and trading away Vladimir Tarasenko to the New York Rangers doesn't help matters. He scored a goal in one of his first shifts with his new team, and the Blues need all the offense they can get.'
That's because goaltender Jordan Binnington has not looked strong, and they've allowed the 2nd-most goals per game over the last month. They haven't been getting smashed by the Avs this season, but they have lost each of the last 2 meetings against them. Colorado is slowly working their way back up the Central Division standings after recently defeating the Minnesota Wild. It's clear that Nathan MacKinnon is back at full strength, recording multiple points in 3 straight games. We're expecting another big day for the captain and Avs overall.
