Nichushkin, Drouin, Wood & Colton. When healthy, who do they replace?

Tynan, Prishchepov, Kelly & Wagner? In that order? I see Ivan Ivan staying along with Kovalenko. Personally, I’d keep Kelly or Prishchepov over Wagner as it will be a while before Colton is back. Assuming everyone stays healthy, of course, which is a big assumption based on the Avs history of injuries.

I noticed last game that the Avs came out with the 2nd and 3rd lines you laid out here, but by the 3rd period they had swapped the wingers – so it was Ivan – Mittelstadt – Kovalenko, and Kiviranta – Kelly – O’Connor. Neither combination put up a ton of offense (but were sound defensively), but I still think that what we saw in the 3rd were the better line combinations for this personnel group.
