How to watch Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Colorado Avalanche TV channel, start time, odds

Tonight’s NHL stream between the Tampa Bay Lightning vs. Colorado Avalanche could be the debut of Blake Coleman after his trade.

As the NHL season gets down to its final quarter, the intensity really begins to heat up. That’ll be the case tonight for a top matchup between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Colorado Avalanche. You can watch the NHL stream live on ESPN+.

The Lightning have been on a tear recently, winning 10-straight games leading up to tonight’s matchup. They’re currently ranked second in the Eastern Conference behind the Boston Bruins by only three points. This could be forward Blake Coleman’s debut with Tampa Bay after being traded from the New Jersey Devils at the NHL trade deadline.

But the Avalanche are no slouch themselves, sitting in third in the Western Conference, down just two points to the Dallas Stars and St. Louis Blues. However, Colorado will be looking to stop a two-game slide in its tracks by picking up a statement win against top competition.
