If you’re looking for a Colorado team to hoist a championship trophy this year, the choices are clear. With the Rockies expected to be in the cellar, and the Broncos wandering the desert, it’s the Avalanche, Nuggets or bust. The Avalanche (13-8) stand third in the West heading into their outdoor game against the Vegas Golden Knights on Saturday at Lake Tahoe. The Nuggets (15-13) are holding down the No. 8 slot in the Western Conference, with a trip to Cleveland on Friday coming up next. Both still have decent odds to win a title, although the Avalanche at +600 (bet $100 to win $600) have the best odds in the NHL, according to co.superbook.com . Only their Lake Tahoe opponent, the Golden Knights, can match the 6-to-1 odds. The Tampa Bay Lightning and Boston Bruins are both currently listed at +700. In this week’s edition of Pick 6, we needed to throw Nuggets’ Nikola Jokic into the mix as a potential MVP award winner. Will the oddsmakers hold being in Denver against him?

This Is The Pet Health Insurance Your Pet Deserves — It’s Also The One Your Budget Needs
One thing's for certain: we love our pets, and they are a part of our families. We do all that we can to keep them happy, healthy, and by our side for as long as we can. But we also know that pets can be unpredictable, and they can get injured or become sick despite our absolute best efforts.

It’s easier to afford costly medical care for our pets with pet insurance, and it’s better than relying on the money in our bank account or a line of credit with a high-interest rate.
