AVS LOOK TO EVEN THE SERIES IN GAME 4 The Colorado Avalanche looks to even their first-round series against the Nashville Predators tonight in Game 4 at Pepsi Center. Nashville won the first two matchups at Bridgestone Arena and Colorado won Game 3 by a 5-3 final on Monday night at Pepsi Center. The Avs are in the postseason for the first time since 2014 and for the 14th time since moving to Denver. This is Colorado/Quebec’s 23rd appearance in the playoffs. The Avalanche/Nordiques are in their 46th playoff series in franchise history (25-20 record), their 31st since moving to Denver (19-11 record).

SCORING IN BUNCHES The Avalanche and Predators have combined for 24 goals through three games (8.0 per game), the highest scoring series thus far in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. The winning team has scored exactly five goals in all three contests. The Avs have scored in each of the last six periods and have been shut out in only one of the nine frames in the series.

FIRST THINGS FIRST The Avs have scored the first goal in all three games of this series, scoring on their very first shot in both Games 1 and 2, and on their second shot in Game 3. Colorado was the first team to score on its first shot in consecutive playoff contests since Boston in Games 2 and 3 of the 2013 Eastern Conference Final at Pittsburgh.

HOME SWEET HOME Colorado finished 28-11-2 on home ice during the regular season, tying their franchise record for most home victories set by the 2000- 01 Stanley Cup championship team. Including Monday night's Game 3 victory, the Avs are now 19-4-1 in their last 24 games at Pepsi Center. Jonathan Bernier has won his last 11 decisions at Pepsi Center dating back to Dec. 29. Nathan MacKinnon, the NHL's leading scorer at home this season (67 points), has 12 points (4g/8a) in five career postseason games at Pepsi Center.

BEEN HERE BEFORE The Avalanche has battled back from an 0-2 deficit to win a series once before, as they rallied from 0-2 down to win four straight from the in the 1999 Western Conference Semifinal. The Avs actually lost the first two games at home that year. Prior to relocating from Quebec, the Nordiques rallied from an 0-2 deficit twice, the 1982 Adams Division Final versus Boston and the 1987 Adams Division Semifinal against Hartford.

PLAYOFF EXPERIENCE Nine different Avalanche players have made their Stanley Cup Playoff debut in this series, including eight in Game 1. The nine Avs to make their postseason debut are Sven Andrighetto, J.T. Compher, Samuel Girard, Tyson Jost, Alexander Kerfoot, Mikko Rantanen, Duncan Siemens, David Warsofsky and Nikita Zadorov. Heading into the series, only half (14) of the Avalanche's 28 active players had participated in the playoffs, combining for 175 postseason contests, the fewest of the 16 playoff teams. Colorado's roster now has 232 combined games of postseason experience.

AVS & PREDATORS This marks the first-ever playoff matchup between the Avalanche and Predators. Besides the expansion Golden Knights, that leaves Calgary and Winnipeg as the only Western Conference opponents who have never faced the Avs in the postseason (and Winnipeg has only been in the West since 2011-12). Nashville won all four matchups during the 2017-18 regular season (Colorado was 0-3-1).

SERIES RECORD All-Time: 31-35-12 Home: 18-17-5 Away: 13-18-7

SEASON SERIES Oct. 17 @ NSH (L, 1-4) Nov. 18 @ NSH (L, 2-5) Mar. 4 vs. NSH (O, 3-4) Mar. 16 vs. NSH (L, 2-4)

CONNECTIONS Gabriel Bourque, Samuel Girard, Vladislav Kamenev, Colin Wilson were all drafted by and played for the Predators. Wilson appeared in 502 regular-season contests and 47 playoff games with Nashville, while Bourque skated in 242 regular-season contests and 15 playoff games with the Preds.

AVS, PREDS INVOLVED IN EARLY SEASON TRADE On Nov. 5, the Avalanche acquired defenseman Samuel Girard, forward Vladislav Kamenev and a second-round pick in the 2018 NHL Draft from the Nashville Predators, as well as forward Shane Bowers, goaltender Andrew Hammond, a first-round selection in the 2018 NHL Draft and a third-round pick in 2019 from the . In return, the Avalanche sent forward to the Senators, and the Predators received Kyle Turris from Ottawa.

AVS ADVANCE TO PLAYOFFS WITH 5-2 WIN IN SEASON FINALE The Avalanche defeated the St. Louis Blues 5-2 in the final game of the regular season to clinch a playoff spot in a winner-take-all matchup in front of 18,087 fans at Pepsi Center. The Avs entered the night trailing St. Louis by one point for the final wild card spot, the first time since 2010 that two teams met in their final game of the season while competing for the lone remaining playoff berth in the conference. The Avs, needing a regulation win to advance, got a late first-period goal from Samuel Girard to take a 1-0 lead, three points from captain Gabriel Landeskog, and 32 saves from Jonathan Bernier to secure their first playoff berth since 2014.

WHAT A TURNAROUND The Avalanche ended the regular season with 95 points, a jump of 47 points from 2016-17 (48). Colorado is the first NHL team to post a 40-plus point improvement from one season to the next since the Pittsburgh Penguins also jumped 47 points from 2005-06 (58) to 2006-07 (105). In fact, Colorado’s turnaround is tied for the fourth-highest year-to-year improvement in NHL history (80+ game seasons only).

+58 San Jose 1993-94 (82) / 1992-93 (24) +52 Quebec 1992-93 (104) / 1991-92 (52) +48 Winnipeg 1981-82 (80) / 1980-81 (32) +47 Colorado 2017-18 (95) / 2016-17 (48) +47 Pittsburgh 2006-07 (105) / 2005-06 (58)

BEDNAR JOINS ELITE COMPANY Jared Bednar guided the Avalanche's 47-point turnaround, leading the club to a 43-30-9 record after a 22-56-4 mark a year ago. Bednar joined Harry Sinden as the only coaches in NHL history to record at least 20 more wins in his second season as an NHL head coach than he did in his first (with his first year being a full season). Sinden led the Bruins to 37 victories in 1967-68 after winning 17 games in 1966-67.

YOUTH MOVEMENT Colorado ended the 2017-18 campaign as the NHL's youngest team (25.8 average age) and also opened the 2018 Stanley Cup Playoffs as the youngest club in the postseason (25.8). Although team averages fluctuate daily, the Avs were the youngest squad for much of the regular season at around 26 years of age. The Avalanche dressed 11 different rookies in 2017-18, second in the NHL (Ottawa 12), and the most in Avalanche history. This current group of rookies combined for 419 games, tops in the NHL, and the most ever by an Avalanche rookie class. Colorado’s 122 points (49g/73a) from rookies tied for fourth in the NHL, while the Avs and Devils were the only two teams to feature three rookies with 10-plus goals.

LET’S GO STREAKING Colorado was the first team with a 10-game overall winning streak and a 10-game home winning streak in the same season since the Anaheim Ducks in 2013-14. The Avalanche won 10 consecutive games from Dec. 29–Jan. 22, the second-longest winning streak in franchise history (12 in 1998-99). The 10-game streak tied for the longest run by an NHL team in 2017-18, as Nashville and Columbus also won 10 in a row. The only other team in NHL history to post a double-digit winning streak in one season after finishing last in the league the previous year was the 1926–27 Canadiens, who won 11 straight. The Avalanche tied a franchise record with a 10-game home winning streak from Dec. 29–Feb. 14.

THIS DAY IN AVS HISTORY April 18, 2010 - Craig Anderson stopped all 51 shots and Ryan O'Reilly scored the only goal of the game 51 seconds into overtime to give the Avalanche a 1-0 victory over the Sharks in Game 3 of the 2010 WCQF at Pepsi Center.
