Yeah, he is returning from the flu. Should be in tonight.

Not playing according to Derek Lee.

Cutter still on the 1st per Lee

I'm fine with that. If that line is going to stay together ( and I think they should), they need to work it out together.

I’ve liked Strome with Terry. If that duo can work it opens up our other centers for more combos, so I’d leave them together.

Strome has exceeded my expectations so far this season at center. He likes to pass. Vatrano and Terry love to shoot. Terry is a better defending forward than Mac too.

I'm hoping Vatrano-Strome-Terry can be on a similar scoring spree to start the season like last year's trio of Vatrano-Mac-Strome. Mac had 21 pts in 20 games with Vatrano and Strome.

Strome is a good player he just shouldn’t be on the 2nd line ever

He can eat up 3rd line matchups

This is either the game where the Avalanche wakes up and gives us a beating for the ages or they just flat-out soil their beds and enter official panic mode. No outcome in between. I feel both optimism and dread simultaneously, hah.

Came here to post the exact same thing. Preparing myself mentally (it won't help).

I'm not the biggest fan of Strome but this play on Wednesday definitely bought him some more time before I get angry at him again.

RE: Harkins he is interchangeable on the fourth line for me. He had nice energy in the pre-season.

The pass off the wall up to Vatrano was just gorgeous. He pretty much had to get it perfect and he did..placement, speed, everything
