Colorado Avalanche face a real test as the surging New York Rangers come to Ball Arena—can home-ice dominance withstand one of the NHL’s most unpredictable road teams? Chris Micieli and Zach Pearson break down the Avs’ quest for a seventh straight win, spotlighting Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar, and examine why the Rangers’ hot-and-cold away performances make them such a dangerous challenge for Jared Bednar’s squad. Key stats, expected goals, and goalie matchups—including Igor Shesterkin’s game-stealing potential—set the stage for a high-stakes clash. Power rankings take center ice, with the Avalanche unanimously holding the top spot across major outlets, while the Rangers hover in the league’s volatile middle tier. Plus, a heated debate on NHL jersey drops—did the Winter Classic unis for the Rangers and Panthers score or flop? Listener predictions add even more intrigue as the Avs look to maintain their league-best form. 00:00 Rangers vs. Avalanche Game Anticipation06:07 Avalanche Must Play Their Game09:37 "Rangers Struggle After Slow Start"15:00 Power Rankings22:50 "Unanimous Avalanche at #1"29:33 Winter Classic Jersey Review Subscribe to our Subtext to talk to us directly!https://joinsubtext.com/lockedonavalanche Everything Locked on Avalanche:https://solo.to/lopn_avalanche Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms…  🎧 https://link.chtbl.com/LOAvalanche?sid=YouTube Locked On NHL League-Wide: Every Team, Fantasy, Prospects & More🎧 https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNHL   Follow on X:  Chris: https://twitter.com/c__micieliZach: https://twitter.com/XavierSuperflyShow Page: https://twitter.com/LOPN_Avalanche #NHL #coloradoavalanche  ____________________________________________________________Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!RugietVisit https://rugiet.com/LOCKEDONNHL to get 15% off your first order.GametimeDownload the Gametime app, create an account, and use code LOCKEDONNHL for $20 off your first purchase.
