Can the Colorado Avalanche Dominate at Ball Arena Against Arizona Coyotes?

As the Colorado Avalanche prepare to host the Arizona Coyotes at Ball Arena on February 18th, fans are eager to see if their team can maintain their recent momentum. The Avalanche have been showcasing a strong performance, especially in their last home game against the Ottawa Senators, where they secured a 6-4 victory. Their offensive prowess was on full display as they capitalized on powerplay opportunities, scoring four goals out of five chances.

The team's shooting percentage stood at an impressive 15 percent during that game, with a faceoff win percentage of 56 percent. This demonstrates their ability to control the puck and create scoring opportunities. Moreover, goaltending has been solid with a save percentage rounding up to 100 percent against both Ottawa and Arizona in previous matchups.

On the defensive end, blocked shots were significant against Ottawa with 19 blocks contributing to their win. However, discipline might be an area of concern as they incurred six penalties totaling twelve penalty minutes in that same game.

Looking at Arizona's last encounter with Colorado, it was clear that they struggled offensively with only one goal scored and a shooting percentage of just four percent. Their faceoff win rate was less than half at 43 percent which could be an area for Colorado to exploit.

Fans should expect Colorado to leverage their home advantage and continue applying pressure offensively while tightening up defensively by reducing penalty time. With strong goaltending continuing as a trend for the Avalanche and an aggressive powerplay strategy that has proven effective in recent games, there is potential for another high-scoring performance from the home side.

The match is scheduled for broadcast on ESPN+ online and ALT channel 681 locally; fans can also catch it on SCRIPPS away from home. Puck drop is set for February 18th at Ball Arena in Denver – don't miss what promises to be an exciting clash!
