Avalanche's Dennis Everberg: Moved to top line

Everberg will skate on the first line for Tuesday's game in Florida, The Denver Post reports.

Everberg will be skating at the left wing position on the top line with Matt Duchene and Jarome Iginla for Tuesday night's tilt against Florida. The forward got 11:33 of ice time in his first game of the season against Columbus on Saturday while skating on the third line. With Duchene having a slow start to the season, Coach Patrick Roy hopes placing Everberg on the top line can create a spark for the center against a surprisingly strong Florida team. While this may not be a long-term move, it does allow Everberg to be a cheap play in daily fantasy lineups.
