Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Guarding goal Saturday
Blackwood will protect the home net against Toronto on Saturday, per Mark Masters of TSN.
After winning two straight games, Blackwood made 16 saves in a 3-2 loss to Winnipeg on Wednesday. He has stopped 68 of 76 shots in three outings this season. Toronto (2-2-1) has accounted for 14 goals in five games this campaign.

Avalanche's Trent Miner: Lands on waivers
Miner (undisclosed) was placed on waivers Saturday, Elliotte Friedman of Sportsnet reports.
Miner is ready to return to the crease after starting the 2026-27 campaign on the Avalanche's injured non-roster list. Assuming he clears waivers, he should be in the mix for starts with AHL Colorado.

Avalanche's Gavin Brindley: Racks up three points for Eagles
Brindley scored a goal and added two assists in AHL Colorado's 4-3 shootout win over Abbotsford on Friday.
Brindley has his first big game of the season with this effort. He earned six points in nine AHL regular-season games last year, as well as 13 points over 56 outings for the Avalanche. Heading back to the AHL could be seen as a setback, but Brindley still has enough potential to work his way back to the big club at some point during the year.

Avalanche's T.J. Hughes: Contributes first assist
Hughes logged an assist, six shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Flames.
The helper was Hughes' first point in four NHL games. The 24-year-old winger has turned a strong training camp into a steady third-line role with power-play time. In addition to the helper, he's produced 11 shots on net, five hits and a plus-1 rating. Hughes' offense isn't to the level that fantasy managers need to roster him yet, but he could be worth adding if he gets on a hot streak later in the year.

Avalanche's Brett Kulak: Pockets pair of assists
Kulak notched two assists, three blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Flames.
Kulak has earned all three of his assists this season over the last two games. The 32-year-old defenseman is seeing steady usage in a bottom-four role. He's added eight blocked shots, two shots on net and a plus-1 rating. Kulak is unlikely to get power-play time, but he'll probably continue to be a fixture in the Colorado lineup after signing a five-year contract extension in June.

Avalanche's Nathan MacKinnon: Collects three points in win
MacKinnon scored a goal on two shots, added two assists and went plus-2 in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Flames.
MacKinnon was held off the scoresheet Wednesday in Winnipeg, but he wasted no time in bouncing back. This was his third multi-point effort of the year. The superstar center has compiled three goals, five assists, 15 shots on net, two hits and a plus-1 rating across four outings in his usual top-line role.

Avalanche's Devon Toews: Pots two goals in win
Toews scored twice on three shots, added two PIM and went plus-3 in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Flames.
Toews had the Avalanche's first two tallies of the game. The 32-year-old defenseman has a pair of multi-point outings this season, earning two goals, two assists, five shots on net, two hits, four PIM and a plus-6 rating over four contests. Toews is in his usual spot on the first pairing, and he's also working on the second power-play unit, which should raise his floor on offense. He's worth rostering as a depth blueliner in fantasy.

Avalanche's Jaden Schwartz: Scores twice in win
Schwartz scored two goals in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Flames.
Schwartz's pair of tallies sandwiched two goals by the Flames in the third period. The 34-year-old winger has three multi-point efforts over four games with the Avalanche, providing valuable depth scoring from the third line. He's at three goals, three assists, nine shots on net, four hits and a plus-2 rating over four appearances. If Schwartz remains consistent on offense, he'll have appeal in fantasy since he plays for a strong team.

Avalanche's Cale Makar: Racks up three points in hometown
Makar scored twice, added an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Flames.
The Calgary native was one of three Avalanche skaters to log two goals. Makar has three goals, three assists, 10 shots on net, six blocked shots and a plus-3 rating over four contests so far this season. That's a good pace for any defenseman. Makar should continue to pile up points throughout the year.

Avalanche's Scott Wedgewood: Gets plenty of support in win
Wedgewood stopped 26 of 29 shots in Thursday's 7-3 win over the Flames.
Wedgewood wasn't great in his first start of the year, but the Avalanche gave him plenty of support. The 34-year-old netminder did well with a steady workload in 2025-26, posting a 2.02 GAA and a .921 save percentage over a career-high 45 regular-season games. With Mackenzie Blackwood off to a strong start this year, that kind of consistent playing time may not be available to Wedgewood. Expect Blackwood to be back in the crease Saturday versus the Maple Leafs, though the two goalies should split next week's home-and-home set against the Stars.

Avalanche's Scott Wedgewood: In goal Thursday
Wedgewood will protect the road goal versus the Flames on Thursday.
Wedgewood will make his first start of the season while the Avalanche wrap up a back-to-back set. Mackenzie Blackwood has looked good while going 2-1-0 with eight goals allowed over his first three starts of the year. If Blackwood continues to start regularly, Wedgewood will have to settle for the backup role, though he's also a fairly reliable goalie in his own right.

Avalanche's Logan O'Connor: Will not play Thursday
O'Connor (lower body) will not play Thursday in Calgary following the sudden passing of his father, Myles.
O'Connor is away from the team to be with his family during this hard time. The 30-year-old forward was nearing a return from his injury, but that will be put on hold while he deals with more important things.

Avalanche's Fedor Svechkov: Earns two points Wednesday
Svechkov scored a goal on two shots, dished an assist, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Jets.
Svechkov has opened the season as the Avalanche's third-line center. The 23-year-old typically plays more of a defensive role, so it's unlikely he'll be a major force on offense. These were his first two points of the season, and he's added four shots on net, two blocked shots, one hit and a plus-3 rating over three appearances.

Avalanche's Jaden Schwartz: One of each in loss
Schwartz scored a goal on two shots, added an assist, doled out two hits and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Jets.
Schwartz has picked up a pair of multi-point efforts through three games. His opening tally Wednesday was his first goal of the year to go with three assists, seven shots on net, four hits and an even plus-minus rating. The 34-year-old Schwartz isn't exactly in the best spot for offense, serving as a third-line winger, but he's getting the job done for now alongside Fedor Svechkov and T.J. Hughes.

Avalanche's Mackenzie Blackwood: Handed loss Wednesday
Blackwood stopped 16 of 19 shots in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Jets.
The Jets' top line got all three goals, including Kyle Connor's second snipe of the night with one minute left in the third period. Blackwood has allowed eight goals on 76 shots while going 2-1-0 over his three starts this season. The 29-year-old netminder has received a starter's workload early on, though he'll be due for rest when the Avalanche finish their back-to-back in Calgary on Thursday. Expect Scott Wedgewood to get the nod in that game.

Avalanche's Logan O'Connor: Might be available for Thursday
O'Connor (lower body) won't play Wednesday in Winnipeg, but he might be an option Thursday in Calgary, per Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette.
O'Connor is set to miss his third straight game Wednesday due to the injury. He'll likely serve in a bottom-six capacity once he's available, but the 30-year-old might also spend some time as a healthy scratch. O'Connor had two assists in 13 regular-season outings with the Avalanche in 2025-26.
