Avalanche vs Senators preview
The Thursday NHL matchup in Ottawa has Colorado as a modest moneyline favorite at -120, with Ottawa at +102, Ottawa +1.5 on the spread and a total of 6.5 unchanged from the opening line. The last meeting went to Ottawa, 5-2, on January 28, 2026, and Colorado is 5-1 in the last six head-to-head meetings, 3-1 ATS.
Recent form: Colorado is 6-4 in its last 10 and 7-3 ATS after a 6-3 win at Toronto on November 10. Ottawa is 5-5 in its last 10 and 6-4 ATS after a 2-3 loss to Washington on November 10.
Useful angles include pace, where Colorado ranks second at 57.8 and Ottawa ranks 26th at 52.4, and Ottawa’s injury situation, with Linus Ullmark day-to-day and William Eklund on injured reserve after surgery to repair a torn ankle tendon, out 10-12 weeks. Ottawa’s power-play points allowed (2.42, rank 23) also compares unfavorably with Colorado’s 1.89 (rank 13).
