The Avalanche are 20-8 in their last 28 road games and 52-24 in their last 76 games playing on 1 days rest. The Sharks are 1-6 in their last 7 home games and 2-5 in their last 7 overall. The under is 6-2 in Avalanche last 8 overall. The over is 19-7 in Sharks last 26 Monday games. The Avalanche are 4-23 in the last 27 meetings in San Jose and 4-0 in the last 4 meetings. The home team is 39-13 in the last 52 meetings. The favorite is 41-13 in the last 54 meetings.

The Colorado Avalanche have played some of their best hockey dating back to last season on the road, and they've beaten the Sharks by a combined score of 10-3 in the two meetings this season. The San Jose Sharks are coming off a rough week and that defensive effort continues to slip. There's really only one direction I can go here, and I'll back the Avs while taking the PL for max betting value.
