Avalanche vs Wild: Game Two Showdown

Tonight, the Colorado Avalanche host the Minnesota Wild for Game two, aiming for a two-nothing series lead. The Avs, fresh off a franchise playoff record-breaking performance, face a new Wild lineup with Filip Gustavsson in net. Colorados Scott Wedgewood returns, with Cale Makar expected to play despite a first-period knock. The Makar-Hughes rivalry heated up Game one, with Makar scoring twice and assisting once. Both teams nurse injuries, with the Avs potentially missing Josh Manson and the Wild without Joel Eriksson Ek and Jonas Brodin. Expect MacKinnon, Lehkonen, and Necas to lead the Avs, while Kaprizov, Hartman, and Zuccarello head the Wild. A strong Avs win could shift momentum, with Game three set for May ninth.
