The Colorado Avalanche and Carolina Hurricanes are two of the best teams during the start of the 2025/26 NHL season, so their next Thursday night matchup is likely to be a test for both franchises to analyze how much they can improve before the most important phases of the season begin. Nonetheless, the real chances of having a confrontation between these teams in the playoffs are very low.

However, the Colorado Avalanche faced several issues in their most recent game against the Utah Mammoth because of the very poor defensive performance that conceded four goals, including the overtime. Nonetheless, the Avalanche are expected to maintain their offensive effectiveness for this game, as they have scored three goals or more during their last four games.

Meanwhile, this game will be the fifth consecutive road game for the Carolina Hurricanes, it being worth noting that despite getting positive results in three of their last four road games, they recently struggled against the Vegas Golden Knights (4-1). With that result in mind, the Hurricanes, who conceded two goals in the opening minutes against the Vegas Golden Knights, are expected to increase their defensive performance in the first period to increase their chances of getting a positive result.
