Players to target: Nathan MacKinnon, Mikko Rantanen, and Gabriel Landeskog

The Colorado Avalanche top line will get a prime matchup against the Chicago Blackhawks, who allow 3.45 goals per game on the road with a road penalty kill of 79%. Chicago's goaltending situation is so ugly that the Blackhawks used an emergency goalie last night. The Blackhawks possess an expected shooting percentage allowed of nearly 10% when their bottom six is on the ice. As for Colorado, they are one of the NHL's best teams at home, generating 3.46 goals per game and nearly 35 shots per 60 minutes.

The top line should match up well against the Artem Anisimov line, which has yielded nearly 35 Scoring Chances Against per 60 minutes and almost 12 High-Danger Chances Against per 60 minutes in the past week. MacKinnon historically has averaged more than a real-world point per game at home against Chicago, and he could continue that trend tonight.
