Oshie 0-6-6 in last 4Alexander Steen 3-0-3 in last 3Vladimir Tarasenko 1-2-3 in last 3 Recent RundownThe Blues took three of four in the 2013-14 season series and have points in 9 of their last 12 dates with COL overall (7-3-2). Prior totheir recent success, the Blues had lost seven consecutive to the Avs from Dec. 7, 2009 to Feb. 22, 2011. One of the bright spots fromlast season was the power play, which outscored the Avs 4-3 despite COL holding a 19-10 advantage in opportunities. STL’s 40%conversion rate shared 3rd best among all teams vs. COL last season. Another theme from last year was physicality, as the two teamscombined for 269 PIM, while the Blues’ 140 PIM were 41 more than they had against any other team. The majority of the infractions(147 total PIM) were accumulated in the third period of their final meeting of 2013-14 (Apr. 5), a frame that included a combined 11minors, 1 major and 12 misconducts. Rule of ThreePrior to COL’s shutout in the final meeting of 2013-14, the Blues had scored three or more goals in seven straight home games vs. theAvs, going 5-2-0 over that span. Getting to three has been a recipe for success, as over the past five seasons (2010-present) the Blues

Steen joins 11 other players overall with two GWG this season,while last year, he led the Blues and shared 3rd overall with a career high 9 GWG (33 goals overall in 2013-14 also led Blues and were

a career high). Steen goal production has been timely ever since he joined the Blues if you consider that since his first full season withthe club (2009-10)…-38 of his 102 goals have come in the 3rd period (1st on Blues)-32 have come in the last five minutes of a period (t-1st on Blues w/David Backes)- 41 have come when a game has been tied (2nd on Blues / 1.

Shattenkirk figures evenmore prominently on special teams as his 64 power play points since joining the Blues are 4th best overall, just 8 pts shy of first placeErik Karlsson (OTT), who has played over 100 more PP minutes than Shattenkirk over that span (Shattenkirk – 735:24 / Karlsson –843:49) Controlling ShotsThe Blues share 5th overall, averaging 32.2 shots per game, while they rank second with 24.0 shots allowed per game (1. MIN, 23.2). Thus far, they are 4-2-1 when outshooting their opponents (opening night vs. NYR was even), a situation that sees teams win 55.7% ofthe time League-wide this season (teams that outshoot their opponents are a combined 73-46-12 thus far). VladimirTarasenko has been the team’s most opportunistic shooter, totaling 38, which shares 11th overall and is 9 more than any other Blue. Tarasenko has posted four or more shots in 7 games this season, joining Claude Giroux and Erik Karlsson as the only playerswith that distinction

Varlamov's 49 stops tied the franchise record for most saves in a HOME game. Scott Gordon made 49 saves for Quebecat the Colisee on Feb. 4, 1990 vs. Boston. Varlamov stopped 22-of-23 shots in the first period on Tuesday, tying his career high forsaves in a single period. Only Patrick Roy, who made 23 saves in a period twice, has ever stopped more shots in one period for theAvalanche. • Varlamov stopped all 40 shots in a 5-0 victory over the Islanders on Thursday for his first shutout of the season. It was Varlamov’s14th career shutout and 10th as a member of the Avalanche, moving him into sole possession of third place on the franchise’s all-timelist behind Patrick Roy (37) and David Aebischer (13). Varlamov’s 40 saves were his most-ever in a shutout, topping his previous highof 34 stops in a 1-0 overtime win against the Predators on March 30, 2013 at Pepsi Center. Varlamov’s effort was the first 40-saveshutout by an Avalanche goaltender since Nov. 15, 2000, when Roy made 41 stops in a 3-0 win at Anaheim. In fact, Varly posted justthe fourth 40-plus save shutout in Avalanche history (since 1995-96).
