Watch NHL : Vancouver Canucks vs Colorado Avalanche Live Streaming, Starts at 9:00 PM ET, March 9, 2010.
The Vancouver Canucks have been involved in some high-scoring games since the Olympic break. That’s probably the kind of contest the Colorado Avalanche want to avoid when the division rivals meet for the first time since November.
The Canucks will try to defeat the Avalanche for the fourth straight meeting and maintain sole possession of first place in the Northwest Division on Tuesday night.
Vancouver (40-23-2) leads Colorado (37-22-6) by two points in the Northwest after rallying from a one-goal deficit entering the third period for a 4-2 win at Nashville on Sunday. The Canucks lead the NHL with nine victories this season when they trail after two periods.
The Canucks have scored 17 goals and conceded 14 in winning three of four since the NHL season resumed as they enter the final two games of their league-record stretch of 14 straight on the road. Ryan Kesler has a career-best nine-game point streak, Daniel Sedin has eight assists in a six-game run and Western Conference points leader Henrik Sedin upped his total to 85 with a goal and an assist Sunday.
The Avalanche know how potent the Canucks can be. Since Craig Anderson made 35 saves in a 3-0 victory Oct. 3, Vancouver scored 16 goals in three wins over Colorado in November.
Mason Raymond had six points and Henrik Sedin four goals in those victories. All of that production came without Daniel Sedin, who missed all three November meetings with a broken foot.
