When the Colorado Avalanche (5-7-0) face off against the Seattle Kraken (5-7-1) at Ball Arena on Tuesday at 9:00 PM ET, two standout players to watch are Nathan MacKinnon for Colorado and Jordan Eberle for Seattle.
The visitors are in a rough patch, with Sunday’s 2-0 loss to Boston marking their fourth defeat in five games. The offense continues to struggle, having gone scoreless in back-to-back games. Goalie Joey Daccord performed well, saving 31 of 33 shots and holding Boston at bay in the final two periods. Seattle has now dropped six of their last seven games after a promising start to the season.
The hosts, meanwhile, are also looking to bounce back after their third straight loss, a 5-2 defeat to Nashville on Sunday. The Avs have struggled to meet expectations this season, entering this matchup with a 5-7-0 record. In their recent game against the Predators, they managed to put two goals on the board, but a lacklustre defensive effort allowed five goals, resulting in a tough loss.
