Open Thread: Colorado Avalanche vs. Winnipeg Jets (6:00 p.m.)

There is some great Friday night hockey action coming up shortly! The Colorado Avalanche are finally back playing against the Winnipeg Jets on the road, kicking off a third consecutive back-to-back for the Avs in February.

Both teams are looking to get points over the other as they search for their place in the playoff race and each tries to conquer their own goals in the process. Can Winnipeg get out of its slump, while Colorado looks to win their fifth straight game?
