Toews produced an assist, two PIM and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Sharks.
Toews has a helper in two of the last three games and has earned seven points across his last 11 outings. The defenseman's contribution was late Thursday, as he assisted on Cale Makar's third-period tally. Toews is up to 30 points, 112 shots on net, 80 blocked shots and a plus-23 rating through 59 appearances. He is all but guaranteed to fall short of the 50-point mark for the first time since 2020-21.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Plucks apple in win
Rotowire
Toews notched a power-play assist and blocked three shots in Friday's 5-2 win over the Avalanche.
Toews has a goal and four assists over his last six outings. The 31-year-old defenseman helped out on Ross Colton's empty-netter to seal this win. The uptick in offense is nice compared to Toews' relatively modest scoring production earlier in the campaign. He's now at 29 points, 109 shots on net, 79 blocks and a plus-18 rating through 57 appearances. His helper Friday was his first special-teams point in 2024-25 after he combined for seven (five on the power play, two shorthanded) in the 2023-24 regular season.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Scores vs. St. Louis
Rotowire
Toews scored a goal, took four shots, blocked a shot and posted a minus-2 rating in Sunday's 3-1 loss to the Blues.
Toews found the back of the twine for the first time since Jan. 14, when he bagged a goal in a 3-2 win over the Rangers, and he's up to seven tallies on the year. He's been contributing in more areas than just scoring, though, as this was the third time he cracked the scoresheet over his last four games. During that four-game stretch, the defenseman has one goal, three assists, seven shots, two hits and five blocked shots.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Supplies two assists in win
Rotowire
Toews recorded a pair of assists, two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Friday's 5-4 win over the Oilers.
Toews was still overshadowed by defense partner Cale Makar's two-goal, one-assist effort, but it was a good showing for the Avalanche's top players. The 30-year-old Toews helped out on goals by Makar and Artturi Lehkonen in the first period. Toews is up to 27 points, 101 shots on net, 71 blocked shots and a plus-19 rating through 53 appearances this season. He continues to offer steady defensive play and solid offense in a large role.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Provides helper
Rotowire
Toews notched an assist in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Flames.
Toews has been a little quiet since his Jan. 14 goal, adding just four assists over 11 contests since then. The 30-year-old defenseman helped out on Cale Makar's game-tying goal in the second period. Toews continues to log steady top-pairing minutes and has 25 points, 99 shots on net, 69 blocked shots and a plus-16 rating over 52 appearances. He's unlikely to match last year's 12-goal, 50-point effort over 82 regular-season contests, but he rarely hurts fantasy managers who choose to play him.

Rotowire

Toews set up a Martin Necas tally in the first period. That helper was the 200th of Toews' career, a milestone he reached in his 446th game. The defenseman started January well with a pair of three-point efforts in the first three contests of the month, but he was limited to just four points over the next 12 outings. This season, he's at 24 points, 96 shots on net, 66 blocked shots and a plus-17 rating through 49 appearances.

Toews has earned three points over his last five contests. The 30-year-old defenseman set up Nathan MacKinnon on the opening tally in the second period. Toews is up to six goals, 17 helpers, 85 shots on net, 61 blocked shots and a plus-18 rating through 45 appearances.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Another three-point effort
Rotowire
Toews scored two goals, one on the game-winner, and added an assist in Monday's 3-1 win over the Panthers.
The Avs couldn't solve Sergei Bobrovsky until late in the second period, when a Toews point shot hit the crossbar, bounced off the ice and then caromed into the net off the veteran netminder's backside to tie the game at 1-1. Toews didn't stop there, beating Bobrovsky with another long-range shot midway through the third before helping to set up Mikko Rantanen for an empty-netter. Toews has two three-point performances in the last three games, and over the last four, he's erupted for a stunning four goals and seven points.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Three points Thursday
Rotowire
Toews notched one goal and two assists in Thursday's 6-5 overtime win over the Sabres. He also recorded four shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-3 rating.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Ends goal drought in win
Rotowire
Toews scored a goal on four shots in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Jets.
Toews ended his 21-game goal drought with a second-period tally. The defenseman had also gone five contests without a point entering Tuesday's action. While the lack of offense is frustrating for fantasy managers, Toews is unlikely to slip out of a top-four role thanks to his defensive work. He has two goals, 12 assists, 55 shots on net, 42 blocked shots and a plus-6 rating over 34 appearances. It's been a down year for the 30-year-old blueliner, who has been more of a depth defenseman in fantasy rather than a solid No. 2 or 3.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Contributes helper
Rotowire
Toews logged an assist and three shots on goal in Thursday's 4-1 loss to Utah.
Toews has five helpers over six games in December. He continues to offer steady but not explosive offense in a top-pairing role, and he also maintains a spot on the second power-play unit. Toews is up to 12 points, 39 shots on net, 34 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 27 outings this season. He's been better -- the blueliner has reached the 50-point mark in each of the last three years, but he'll have to pick up the pace to do so in 2024-25.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Four points in last five games
Rotowire
Toews had two assists in a 6-2 win over the Penguins on Tuesday.
The offensive defender has put up 157 points in 228 games over the last three seasons. However, this year has been a slog for Toews, who has just 11 points in 26 games. It's not uncommon for players with big new contracts to struggle with the weight of performance in the first year of a new deal. But Toews has four assists in his last five games, so he may be turning a corner.

Toews had gone four games without a point before helping out on Nathan MacKinnon's game-tying goal in the third period.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: First goal of season Monday
Rotowire
Toews scored a goal and blocked five shots in Monday's 3-2 overtime win over the Predators.
Toews found the back of the net in the early stages of the second period following set-ups from Samuel Girard and T.J. Tynan. Even though Toews is a reliable presence on the blue line for the Avalanche, he has only four points in 12 regular-season outings. He'll need to pick up the pace substantially to reach the 50-point threshold for the fourth straight season.

Rotowire
Toews logged an assist, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Hurricanes.
Toews has two helpers over four games in November, surpassing his point total from all of October. The defenseman has been a bit limited on offense despite playing in his usual top-pairing role when healthy this season. He's at three assists, 17 shots on net, nine blocked shots and a minus-4 rating through 11 outings overall.

Toews (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday, per the NHL media site.
Toews appears to be ready to return from a four-game absence in Tuesday's clash with Seattle. He has accounted for one assist, three shots on net and three blocked shots through two appearances this season. With Toews poised to play, Calvin de Haan or John Ludvig could be scratched.
