Both teams trail the St. Louis Blues for first place as they have a five and six-point lead in the division.
"We're not out of the race for the division lead or No. 1 in the NHL," Avalanche center Matt Duchene told the team's official website after scoring in OT to give him 12 points in a career-best eight-game point streak. "We're right there. We just have to keep working hard here. I mean, that's a character win (Monday). There's no other way to describe that. Guys just played their hearts out."
Colorado has suffered some injuries at forward, playing with only 10 forwards in its last game, which resulted in a 3-2 overtime win. The team recalled Brad Malone and Paul Carey from the AHL to add depth at forward.
"'Don't try and feel sorry for yourself.' That is what I said to the guys: 'Keep going and we'll win the game,'" coach Patrick Roy, whose team has a league-best 39 points since New Year's Eve told ESN.com. "We have to remain positive, that's for sure, but at the same time, all year we have battled through adversity, and tonight was another example."
This will be the fifth and final meeting of the regular-season. The teams split the first two games, then the Avs would win in overtime and won 4-2, eight nights ago in Chicago.
