Should the Colorado Avalanche have cause for concern as losses continue to pile up?

The Colorado Avalanche will be out to avenge a Jan. 12 loss when they visit the Toronto Maple Leafs for a rematch Sunday afternoon.

Early in the third period, Tippett's second tally of the game (17th) and a Matvei Michkov deflection goal (11th) re-opened a two-goal edge for Philly. In the middle stages of the frame, Tippett scored (SHG, 18th) on a shorthanded breakaway to complete his hat trick. Later Michkov collected his second goal of the night (ENG, 12th).

Avalanche danger is expected to increase across Colorado's high country heading into the weekend as a new round of snow moves into the mountains.

The Vancouver Canucks could be moving on from another offensive weapon before the trade deadline.
