Game Notes
COL
?Kuemper (9-5-0, 2.84 GAA, .903 Sv%) will likely start for the Avalanche
?Some early season struggles with injuries, Covid, and below-expectations goaltending have Colorado sitting just outside of a very crowded Wild Card race in the West. Things are heating up for them though as they are 7-1 in their last 8 games
?The Avs will welcome back Nathan MacKinnon as he has missed those past 8 games with a lower body injury
?Kadri really stepped up in MacKinnon's absence recording 17 points in those 8 games. He has 27 points in 18 games this season which puts him tied for 4th in league scoring
TOR
?Campbell (12-4-1, 1.64 GAA, .946 Sv%) will likely start for the Leafs
?The Leafs come home after a 4-game road trip that saw them go 4-0
?Joey Anderson will make his season debut with the Leafs
