status report
Neither team held a morning skate after Colorado’s 3-2 win in Dallas on Tuesday. …Kiviranta will return after missing three games with a lower body injury. …Johnston did not travel with the stars; The rescue worker was given late leave on Tuesday due to illness. … Makar is expected to miss his second consecutive game after the defenseman’s wife gave birth to twins. … O’Connor, a forward, has been out since the death of his father last week. … L’Heureux suffered an upper-body injury late Tuesday night; If he cannot play, the Avalanche will recall a player from Colorado of the American Hockey League before puck drop.
