GAME OF THE WEEK
Edmonton at Colorado, Thursday, 6 p.m.
The streaking Oilers will get a chance to keep their run going against an opponent that has been hit with injuries lately. Forward Anson Carter leads Edmonton in scoring, but the key to the Oilers’ recent success has been the play of goaltender Tommy Salo. The Avalanche has the worst penalty-killing unit in the league; defenseman Rob Blake is struggling with a minus-4 plus/minus rating.
