Colorado Avalanche will take on the New York Islanders in the NHL matchup on Monday night. It hasn’t been the most confident start to the new NHL season for the defending Stanley Cup champions, but he certainly has the ability to improve as the season progresses. The Colorado Avalanche won his NHL this season 16-11-2, making him 8th in the Western Conference coming into this game. However, in his last 10 games, he has only four wins to keep him on track.
His record at home this season, which is 7-5-2 in the ball arena, was certainly a cause for concern. However, they regained their winning ways in their last game at home when he won 3–1 over the Nashville Predators. Mikko Rantanen, Alex Newhook and Kael Makar scored in the home win. The New York Islanders are certain to finish in the playoffs again this season as they start this game in 8th place in the Eastern Conference. They have won 18-13-1 in the NHL this season, with the Islanders recording nine wins both home and away this season.

However, they entered this game after a positive result in their last match. That win was recorded by the Vegas Golden in his away game against the Knights, where Brock Nelson won his 5–2 victory.
