This will be the Jets' second consecutive game in as many days and at high altitude. Tough. Winnipeg got revenge from last year's playoffs by defeating the Avs 1-0 despite getting outshot 35-28 last month. Colorado is ranked 8th in shots allowed per game, while the Jets hold the 23rd position, the worst among all winning teams. The Avalanche have a +87 shot differential, while Winnipeg is at -37 this season, the worst mark of any winning team. Those stats are before Monday’s game. The Jets are 0-3 when playing on back-to-back nights, while Colorado is 1-0 this season when playing with 3+ days of rest. (7-4 last three seasons).

This is purely a pre-Tuesday fade of Winnipeg backup netminder Eric Comrie because No. 1 Connor Hellebuyck makes his fourth straight start on Monday in a tough matchup vs. Nashville, so he's not playing both ends of a B2B barring something really unusual. Comrie has lost five straight outings and allowed at least three goals in each. No worse place to play the second of a B2B than in the thin air of Denver. Colorado has won four straight and been off since Friday. The Woods -- Mackenzie Blackwood and Scott Wedgewood -- seemed to have solved the team's early season issues in net.
