We have a goal -- to brighten up your week by giving you a chance to win one of five pairs of tickets to see your Colorado Avalanche take on the San Jose Sharks, last year's playoff opponent, on Wednesday night.

How can you qualify? By telling us in the comment section below who you think will be the Avs' MVP this season and why in fifty words or less.

Here's the rest of the details.

1. The tickets will be at Westword's offices, at 969 Broadway. Pick them up at the front desk.

2. The name on your ID must match the name you provide to us when we let you know you've won.

3. The contest ends at noon Wednesday.

4. Please provide a valid e-mail address (we won't share it with anyone) so we can get in contact with you if you're the winner.

So who'll be the MVP? Paul Stastny? Matt Duchene? Ryan O'Reilly? Craig Anderson? Or someone else entirely? Let us know below, and you could be seeing them play in person tomorrow!
