LAST GAME – Jan. 28 (Colorado 3, San Jose 0) Nazem Kadri scored two third-period goals and assisted on another as the Avalanche beat the Sharks for the second time in three nights, 3-0, at Ball Arena ... Andre Burakovsky scored, Brandon Saad had two assists and Philipp Grubauer stopped all 21 shots for his second shutout of the season. PP: 1-4 PK: 0-4 SF: 38 SA: 21 • The Avs won their third straight home game, outscoring the opposition 18-3. • The win was Jared Bednar's 150th career NHL coaching victory, making him the fourth coach in franchise history to reach 150. • Nathan MacKinnon broke Joe Sakic's franchise record for consecutive regular season games with at least one shot. • The Avalanche's PK unit went 4-for-4 and has now killed off 17 straight penalties ... The Avs are 15-for-15 at home. • Kadri is the first Avalanche player to score 2+ goals with 10+ shots and 10+ faceoff wins in a single game (since NHL has tracked faceoffs).

TONIGHT This is the first of four straight games between the Avalanche and Wild starting with a back-to-back set here in St. Paul tonight and tomorrow ... The "series" will shift back to Denver on Tuesday and Thursday. • Mikko Rantanen has scored a goal in all four road games this year ...

BACK-TO-BACK The Avs are playing their second back-to-back of the season ... Colorado split last week in Los Angeles (4-2 loss) and Anaheim (3-2 win) ... The Avs played 12 back-to-back games last season, finishing 9-3-0 in the first contest and 6-5-1 in the second.

KEEP YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE BUT YOUR ENEMIES CLOSER It's fitting that the Wild are the first team that the Avalanche will play four consecutive regular-season games against ... Colorado and Minnesota have shared a division in every season of the Wild's existence: Northwest (2000-01 to 2012-13), Central (2013-14 to 2019-20) and now the Honda West Division (2020-21) ... Meeting eight times in a season is nothing new to the Avs and Wild, as they met eight times during the 2005-06, 2006-07 and 2007-08 campaigns ... The Avs and Wild have faced off 126 times (106 regular season, 20 playoffs) in their history, by far the most common opponent for either team since Minnesota entered the league ... If you include the playoffs, they met 14 times during the 2007-08 campaign, 12 times in 2002-03 and 12 times in 2013-14 (14 if you include the preseason).

DID YOU KNOW The Avalanche and Wild have played on consecutive nights in the regular season on three occasions but obviously never both in the same building (all were home-and-home sets) ... However, they actually did it once in the postseason during the 2008 Western Conference Quarterfinal ... Games 3-4 were on back-to-back nights in Denver (April 14-15, 2008) ... The Wild won Game 3 in overtime but Colorado took Game 4 and won the series in six ... They also played consecutive nights during the 2003 playoffs but it was a home-and-home.

AVS & WILD Tonight is the first of four straight and eight meetings overall between the Avalanche and Wild ... They split the four meetings last year with the fifth matchup cancelled.
