Next Saturday night will be a fantastic chance for the Colorado Avalanche to look for immediate recovery after losing their most recent home game against the Minnesota Wild. However, even though the Chicago Blackhawks are one of the weakest sides in the Western Conference, there’s no room for any signs of overconfidence in Colorado, as they have definitely lost their unstoppable momentum.

Despite this, the Avalanche remain the best offense in the Western Conference with 218 goals scored; however, it should be noted that Nathan MacKinnon is leading the scoring volume of this team with 40 goals. Taking these factors into account, it’s a fact that losing the gold medal against the USA during the Winter Olympics has impacted MacKinnon’s motivation, as he couldn’t score any goals against the Utah Mammoth nor the Minnesota Wild.

Meanwhile, the Chicago Blackhawks had a terrible comeback to NHL activity after their 4-2 loss to the Nashville Predators. Nevertheless, that negative result couldn’t be taken as surprising, as the Blackhawks didn’t make any significant changes to their roster during the Olympic break. Taking all factors into account, it’s a fact that this season will be their sixth in a row without making it through the playoffs.
