For the second time in as many years the Colorado Avalanche are on the verge of sweeping their first round opponent. Last year the Avs took care of the St. Louis Blues in four games, this year they could do it to a different division rival in the Nashville Predators.

The Avs have been nothing but dominant in this series and there is zero reason to believe that won't continue in game 4. The Avalanche threw 42 shoots on goal in Game 3 and 51 the game prior. That is a lot to ask of a rookie goalie in Ingram, so the question now becomes will Nashville, down 3-0, bring in their star goalie Juuse Saros if he's even somewhat ready to go?

The goalie situation for the Avs is in question as well. Ryan Johansen's stick perfectly found it's way between the opening in Kuemper's mask and the results looked scary. Kuemper went down to the ice and did not return. Early reports are things are not as bad as it looked and there is even an outside change Kuemper plays in Game 4.

The online reception to believing Johansen intentionally pushed the stick further to try and deliberately injure Kuemper and potentially take away his eyesight is disturbing. Chris and Kyle break it down.
