Thrashers aim for winning streak at Avalanche
Mar 10, 2009 - 1:43 PM Atlanta (25-35-6) at Colorado (29-36-1) 9:00 p.m. ESTDENVER (Ticker) -- The Atlanta Thrashers will go for their first three-game winning streak in more than a month Tuesday when they visit the Colorado Avalanche.
Coming off a 3-1 homestand that lifted them out of last place in the Southeast Division, the Thrashers hit the road in six of their next eight.
Following a 2-0 win over Montreal Friday, Bryan Little scored a pair of goals in a 5-2 win over Calgary on Sunday.
The Thrashers last won three straight from January 16-20.
Colorado will be looking to build on its first win in seven games Sunday, a 5-1 victory at Chicago, snapping a five-game skid on the road and a string of six straight losses overall.
Marek Svatos and Ryan Smyth each recorded a goal and an assist in the win and Peter Budaj stopped 24 shots to snap a personal five-game losing streak.
