The Colorado Avalanche are looking to continue their winning ways.
In the first two rounds of the playoffs, Nathan MacKinnon and co. handily took down the LA Kings and Minnesota Wild, coming out on top in eight of their nine games.
Next up, they’ll face their greatest challenge in the Western Conference Finals when they take on Jack Eichel and Mitch Marner’s Vegas Golden Knights.
If you’d like to be there for this cutthroat series that determines who advances to the 2026 Stanley Cup Finals, tickets are available for all seven potential games.
At the time of publication, the lowest price we could find on seats for any one game at Denver’s Ball Arena was $175 including fees on SeatGeek.
Prices for games at Las Vegas’ T-Mobile Arena start at $160 including fees.
Home ice advantage will be crucial in this series, too.
“In the 2025-26 regular season, Colorado and Vegas faced off three times, with the road team winning each game,” Daily Faceoff reported. “The Avs won 4-2 in Vegas on Halloween Night, before prevailing 6-5 in a shootout two days after Christmas; Vegas won 3-2 in Colorado on April 11 off of an overtime goal by Jack Eichel.”
However, it should be noted that this is a brand-new Golden Knights team.
With eight games remaining before the end of the year, Vegas axed Head Coach Bruce Cassidy and brought in John Tortorella, who led the club to a 7-0-1 record to close the campaign.
Since then, they’ve ousted the resilient Utah Mammoth and competitive Anaheim Ducks behind wizard-like play from Marner.
Pundits favor Colorado in this series — CBS Sports wrote that they’re “expecting the Avs to advance to the Stanley Cup Final for the second time in five years” — but anything is possible especially with Marner hoping to win his first trophy.
Don’t miss this one. We smell a blockbuster series.
