Trenin (upper body) will not be in the lineup for Game 6 versus Dallas on Friday. Coach Jared Bednar told reporters, "He won't be available tonight. He's on the shelf for tonight's game. Still classify him as day-to-day," per Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette.
Trenin has produced just one point in 10 postseason contests, so his absence from the lineup is unlikely to have a significant impact on fantasy players. Without Trenin in the lineup, the Avs will likely turn to Chris Wagner to fill a fourth-line center role, though Fredrik Olofsson could also be in the mix.

Avalanche's Yakov Trenin: Dealing with upper-body injury
Rotowire
Trenin is being evaluated for an upper-body injury after exiting Wednesday's Game 5 versus the Stars in the first period, Evan Rawal of Colorado Hockey Now reports.
Trenin exited midway through the first period, and it appears unlikely he'll be able to return to the game. If the Avalanche lose Wednesday, the injury will end his season, though it's unclear if he'll be available for Friday's Game 6 should the Avalanche win.

Trenin scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and went plus-2 in Tuesday's 6-3 win over the Jets in Game 5.

Avalanche's Yakov Trenin: Out Thursday
Rotowire
Trenin (undisclosed) will be out Thursday against the Wild, per Corey Masisak of The Denver Post.
Trenin has played 10 games with the Avalanche since being dealt by Nashville at the trade deadline, recording two goals and 16 shots on goal over that stretch. The 27-year-old will likely slot into a bottom-six role when he returns to action.
Trenin scored a goal on three shots and delivered five hits in Saturday's 7-4 win over Nashville.
The fourth line pressured the Predators in their own end, forcing a loose puck that Trenin corralled and buried for the game-winning tally against his former mates. It was Trenin's second goal as a member of the Avalanche. He's also continued his prolific ways with the body, logging 26 hits over 10 games since joining Colorado. Saturday's five bodychecks established a new career high in that category; Trenin has 196 hits (24th in the NHL) over 70 games.
Trenin scored a goal on his lone shot in Sunday's 5-4 overtime win against Pittsburgh.
Trenin earned his first goal and point in an Avalanche jersey, closing the gap to 4-2. With Colorado buzzing and having just hit the crossbar, Brandon Duhaime's shot caromed of Trenin and under the arm of Alex Nedeljkovic. That tally, late in the second period, spurred a frantic third period in which the Avs scored twice then went on to win in overtime. Trenin, who was acquired from Nashville at the trade deadline, is skating on the fourth line and averaging two fewer minutes of ice time per game in Colorado.

Avalanche's Yakov Trenin: Moved to fourth line
Rotowire
Trenin had one shot and five hits in Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over Edmonton.
Trenin was dropped from the third to fourth line, as Zach Parise returned from a lower-body injury. The fourth line was responsible for 12 of Colorado's 33 hits, and Trenin has 13 body checks over four games since being traded from Nashville. Overall, the 27-year-old is tied for 19th in the NHL with 184 hits.

Avalanche's Yakov Trenin: On third line for now
Rotowire
Trenin had one shot on net, two blocks and two hits over 15:22 of ice time in Tuesday's 6-2 win over Calgary.
Trenin played his second game for Colorado since being acquired from Nashville last week. He saw ice time as a winger on the third line, took some faceoff draws and was used on the penalty-kill unit. The Avalanche need someone to replace Logan O'Connor (hip) on the third line, but it may not be Trenin long term. Once Zach Parise (lower body) is ready, he figures to skate there, and Trenin could drop to fourth-line center when additional injured players return. He's recorded six hits in his first two games with Colorado and could provide the physical edge the team lost when it traded Kurtis MacDermid to New Jersey.
Trenin was traded along with Graham Sward to Colorado from Nashville on Thursday in exchange for Jeremy Hanzel and a 2025 third-round selection.
Trenin has 10 goals, 14 points, 38 PIM and 171 hits in 60 contests with the Predators in 2023-24. He's averaged 15:04 of ice time this season, but that workload might decline with the Avalanche. Trenin is likely to serve almost exclusively in a bottom-six capacity for Colorado.

Predators' Yakov Trenin: Opens scoring Thursday
Rotowire
Trenin scored a goal, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Thursday's 4-1 win over the Kings.
Trenin tallied at 8:47 of the first period to open the scoring. The 27-year-old forward has two points and a plus-5 rating while adding six PIM and seven hits over his last three games. He's done fine in a second-line role lately, though his playing style fits better with a third-line assignment. Trenin has nine goals, four assists, 163 hits, 85 shots on net and 38 PIM through 54 outings overall.
Trenin notched an assist, two shots on goal, three hits and two PIM in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Golden Knights.
Trenin helped out on a Cody Glass goal in the first period. The assist snapped a five-game slump for Trenin, who has maintained a second-line role despite his lack of recent offense. The 27-year-old forward is up to 12 points, 84 shots on net, 155 hits, 36 PIM and a plus-5 rating through 53 appearances this season. His toughness can help in deep fantasy formats, but there's little offense to be found in Trenin's play.

Predators' Yakov Trenin: Tallies in loss
Rotowire
Trenin scored a goal on three shots in Monday's 4-3 overtime defeat to the Senators.
Trenin extended Nashville's lead to 3-0 in the final minute of the first period, deflecting a Dante Fabbro shot past Mads Sogaard. The goal is Trenin's first in 16 games -- he had just one assist in that span. Overall, the 27-year-old winger is up to eight goals and 11 points through 47 outings. While Trenin may not be a consistent scoring option, he adds a physical element to Nashville's middle-six, racking up 110 hits this season.

Predators' Yakov Trenin: Pots goal in win
Rotowire
Trenin scored a goal on two shots, added two hits and blocked two shots in Sunday's 2-1 win over the Sabres.
Trenin's goal at 10:54 of the first period held as the game-winner for the Predators. The 26-year-old third-liner has earned all seven of his points this season over the last nine contests. Trenin has added 39 shots on net, 63 hits and a plus-5 rating. He's not as bad as he was to start the year, nor as good as he's been lately, but Trenin could challenge the 24-point totals he's put up in each of the last two seasons if he can stay on track once his current hot stretch ends.

Predators' Yakov Trenin: Nets opening goal Sunday
Rotowire
Trenin scored a goal on two shots and added five hits in Sunday's 3-2 win over the Jets.
Trenin took a pass from Roman Josi and powered through the defense to open the scoring at 19:40 of the first period. This was Trenin's fourth goal and fifth point over the last five games, an unusually strong run for the checking-line forward. Trenin has responded well to his Nov. 11 scratch against the Coyotes, as he hadn't recorded a point before that date. The 26-year-old has five points, 36 shots on net, 53 hits and a plus-7 rating through 19 outings overall.
