[Tommy Shelby]

Nichushkin's 7-10 day injury will now be at least 3 weeks.

Good stuff.

They only add up the weekends when they give these estimates

For the folks that think it’s been a concussion with Drouin, it’s not.

Jonathan Drouin gets candid talking injury, 'frustrating' first half

If last season with the Avalanche was a dream for Jonathan Drouin, the start to this season has to feel like a bit of a nightmare.

"Between the pipes: Can't pin this one on Blackwood, ..."

You started to write this up before the last minute comeback, and then forgot to change this part, didn't you?

But really, just thanks for the digging and background on the Drouin situation. More than we usually get, and it helps cut down our speculation, in one area anyway.

Ludwig was waived.

So once all D return how will Colorado top 6 look on defense? Who will be 7th defenseman?

Middleton or de Haan. We’ve been carrying 8 since Ludvig was recalled from his conditioning stint.

Toews - Makar
Girard - Manson
CdH/Middleton - Malinski
CdH/Middleton

Regardless, I don’t think anybody will pickup Ludvig.

I agree with that. So what happens to Kylington? Goes on waivers probably?

Honestly interested in how folks feel/think about this...

If Gabe really thinks he's ready, why would he be waiting until after the 4 Nations tournament to come back?

Wouldn't he be on the ice trying to make Sweden's team? With as few best on best tournaments as Gabe has been allowed to perform in, does anyone really think he would willingly skip this one, if healthy? If Sweden doesn't keep a roster spot open for him as an injury replacement, I'm not sure how excited I should get. But I do grin everytime I see him back on the ice... so I have that going for me.

Did they actually put him on the roster in an injury slot?

He's on IR. Has been for a while.

I know. I meant what happens to him once he comes off IR?

 

[Colorado Avalanche]

He needs time to shake off the 3 year rust tho. Can't just jump right back into the playoffs.

Someone will go on LTIR after 4 nation's to free up Landy.

True. Even if he was healthy, how is he supposed to handle playoff hockey after such a long break?

More than likely, Middleton will be sent down.

This is where I get mad at my editor and take no blame…
