Red Wings go for season sweep of Avalanche

Feb 18, 2008 - 2:20 PM Detroit (41-15-5) at Colorado (30-24-5) 8:00 pm EST

DENVER (Ticker) -- The Detroit Red Wings will look to complete a season sweep of the Colorado Avalanche on Monday.

The Red Wings, the NHL's stingiest defensive team, has held the Avalanche to only two goals in three games this season. The last two games have been shutouts with Dominik Hasek in goal for Detroit, but the six-time Vezina Trophy winner is currently out with a hip injury.

The Red Wings are winless in six games (0-5-1), but still lead the Stars in the race for the league's most points. Dallas defeated Detroit, 1-0, on Sunday to close to within eight points.

Defenseman Brian Rafalski (groin), right wing Daniel Cleary (jaw) and defenseman Niklas Kronwall (shoulder) didn't play Sunday for the Red Wings, but Rafalski may play in Monday's game.

Colorado has lost three straight, scoring one goal in each game. All-Star Paul Stastny, the club's leading scorer, missed his 13th game on Sunday with a groin injury/appendectomy, but has resumed skating.

Jaroslav Hlinka, who has seven tallies and 26 points this season, scored the lone goal in Sunday's 2-1 loss to Chicago Blackhawks.
