Looking at the recent matchups between these two teams, the Colorado Avalanche (COL) have had the upper hand against the Ottawa Senators (OTT). In the last three games, Colorado has won two, with one of those being a decisive 8-2 victory. Ottawa's lone win was a 5-1 result in March of 2025. Scoring trends show that Colorado has been the higher-scoring team in these recent encounters, particularly in their 8-2 win where they put up six goals in the second period alone. Ottawa has shown they can score, netting four goals in a close 5-4 loss in October 2024, but consistency in putting up higher numbers against Colorado seems to be a challenge. The Avalanche also demonstrated their ability to shut down Ottawa's offense in their 5-1 victory, limiting them to a single goal. Given Colorado's recent dominance and higher offensive output in head-to-head games, they appear to have a strong advantage.
