Utah (4-2-0, 8 points) is hosting the Avalanche (5-0-1, 11 points) at Delta Center on Tuesday, October 21, in a battle of the Rockies.

Mammoth looking to even the season series with pesky Avalanche
Utah opened its second season in franchise history in Colorado, dropping a 2-1 heartbreaker to the Avalanche. Dylan Guenther scored the Mammoth’s only goal, but it was an early third-period power-play goal from Nathan MacKinnon that ended up being the game-winner.
Karel Vejmelka is the first goaltender off the ice this morning.
That indicates he should get the start against Colorado tonight.#TusksUp #GoAvsGo

Since then, Utah has won four of five games, including a three-game winning streak to start the 41-game home schedule.
Guenther and Nick Schmaltz lead the club with three goals each, while Schmaltz’s nine points lead all players. Schmaltz recorded the first hat-trick in Delta Center history when he recorded three goals in a 6-3 beating of the San Jose Sharks.
