The San Jose Sharks look to rebound from their defeat on Saturday when they travel to Colorado to take on the Avalanche. It wasn't easy for the Sharks against the St. Louis Blues on Saturday afternoon and in the end they just didn't have enough to pull out the win. Logan Couture's ninth goal of the season tied the game at 1-1 in the opening period and the Sharks then seemingly took control in the second. Scott Gomez added his second goal of the year and Matt Irwin added a power play goal as San Jose led 3-1 going into the final 20 minutes. They watched the Blues tie it during a stretch of a little over a minute and ultimately take the game to overtime. In the extra frame the Blues snuck another one past Antti Niemi as St. Louis handed the Sharks a 4-3 defeat. Niemi was pulled after allowing St. Louis to tie the game and he watched Alex Stalock come in and stop his first six shots before surrendering the game winner in overtime. They'll look to get back on track in this one as they'll travel to Colorado to take on an Avalanche club that they've already defeated twice this season. Colorado comes into this one after Friday night's impressive performance that saw them hand the Chicago Blackhawks their first regulation loss of the season. Matt Duchene had a goal and three assists, P.A. Parenteau added a goal and two assists, and the Avalanche used a four goal second period to rout the Blackhawks by a final of 6-2. Semyon Varlamov was strong in goal again for Colorado and he made 31 saves to pick up his seventh win of the season. The home team is 17-5 the last 22 meetings in this series. San Jose is 20-7 the last 27 overall. The Over is 4-1 the last five meetings.
