For the first time since 2001, the Colorado Avalanche are headed to the Stanley Cup Finals. 

Colorado rallied from two goals down in the third period to beat the Edmonton Oilers 6-5 in Game 4 last night and complete the four-game series sweep in the Western Conference Finals.

The Avalanche are the first team to complete multiple best-of-seven series sweeps in the same postseason since the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim did it in 2003.

Colorado in four was +760 at FanDuel Sportsbook.

The Avalanche have gone the distance as the wire-to-wire favourite to win the Stanley Cup this season.

Looking at the updated Stanley Cup winner odds at FanDuel this morning, Colorado is -220 to win it all.

Here’s the TSN EDGE Morning Coffee for Tuesday, June 7th, 2022.

Avalanche Advance To Stanley Cup Final

The Avalanche and Oilers combined for just two goals in the first 27:38 of Game 4.

They combined for nine goals the rest of the way as the total soared over the closing number at 7 +104, capped off by Artturi Lehkonen’s winner in overtime.

It’s the second year in a row that Lehkonen has scored the overtime goal that sent his team to the Stanley Cup Final.

Colorado, which closed as a -130 money line favourite, could be found as high as +540 down 4-2 in the third.

The Avalanche have now won seven straight road games to open the postseason.

They scored 4+ goals in all four games versus Edmonton.

10 different anytime goal scorer props cashed last night, including Lehkonen at +250. 

Cale Makar became the youngest defenceman with a five-point playoff game in NHL history.

Makar to record 3+ points was +700.

Lehkonen and Gabriel Landeskog also recorded three points for the Avalanche.

Landeskog to record 3+ points was +1000 at FanDuel.

While anybody who bet the Oilers money line had to be furious with the final result, Edmonton’s biggest stars delivered once again.

Connor McDavid finished with a goal and two assists and will go out as the league leader in playoff points with 33 in 16 games.

McDavid 3+ points was +220 at FanDuel.

Leon Draisaitl battled through injuries with four assists to finish with 32 points in 16 games this postseason.

Draisaitl to record 3+ points was +370.
