  • Winnipeg Jets won 7-0 when the two teams last met on April 13

Colorado Avalanche Form

Colorado finished the regular season third in the Central Division standings, having compiled a 50-25-7 record.

The Avalanche enter the playoffs in underwhelming form though, with back-to-back defeats in late March starting a run that saw them lost seven of their final 11 games.

They then sandwiched a 4-1 loss in Columbus with a 7-4 win over Nashville and a 5-2 victory against Minnesota, before suffering back-to-back defeats to Edmonton, 6-2, and Dallas, 7-4.

Colorado rebounded to beat Minnesota 5-2 at home, but they again failed to follow up a win as they lost 7-0 to Winnipeg.

The Avalanche then lost 4-3 in overtime in Vegas, before wrapping up the regular season with a 5-1 victory over Edmonton.

Winnipeg Jets Form

Winnipeg compiled a 52-24-6 record in the regular season to claim second place in the Central Division.

The Jets ended the regular season on a red-hot run of form too, having responded to a six-game skid with eight consecutive victories.

They stopped the rot with a 4-3 victory over Los Angeles, and backed that up with a 5-2 success against Calgary.

Winnipeg then went out on the road to beat Minnesota 5-2, Nashville 4-3 in overtime, Dallas 3-0 and Colorado 7-0.

The Jets continued their streak when they returned home too, as they closed out the regular season with a 4-3 win over Seattle and a 4-2 victory against Vancouver.

Verdict

Little separated the two teams in the standings, but on the ice there has been a clear winner.

Winnipeg have dominated Colorado this season, so we expect them to draw first blood in this playoff series.
