  • Clinches series win
    Duchene scored the game-winning goal in Friday's 2-1 double-overtime win over the Avalanche in Game 6.

    Advice: Duchene was called for goaltender interference on a potential game-winner in the first overtime. That didn't dissuade him from sticking near the net, and he converted 11:42 into the second extra session after the puck popped loose from a scrum in front of the net. Through 13 playoff contests, Duchene has two goals, six points, 18 shots on net, 16 hits, 13 blocked shots and a plus-2 rating. He is filling in on a line with Jason Robertson and Joe Pavelski while Roope Hintz (upper body) recovers from an upper-body injury. Rotowire.com Friday, 11:27 pm

  • Won't play Friday
    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.

    Advice: 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. Rotowire.com Friday, 10:18 am
     
  • Adds helper
    Duchene logged an assist in Wednesday's 5-3 loss to the Avalanche in Game 5.

    Advice: Duchene has managed three helpers over five games in the second round, but his goal drought is up to seven contests. The 33-year-old center got the bump up to the top line, replacing Roope Hintz (upper body) in that spot as head coach Pete DeBoer elected to keep Wyatt Johnston alongside Jamie Benn. Duchene has a modest five points with 14 shots on net, 14 hits, 12 blocked shots and a plus-1 rating through 12 playoff outings. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 8:59 pm

  • Dealing with upper-body injury
    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.

    Advice: 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. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:09 pm
     
  • Garners assist in win
    Duchene notched an assist, three hits and two PIM in Saturday's 4-1 win over the Avalanche in Game 3.

    Advice: Duchene has gone five games without a goal. Through 10 playoff contests, he has one tally, three assists, 13 shots on net, 11 hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-1 rating. With linemate Tyler Seguin scoring twice and looking more like himself in Saturday's victory following a late-season injury, Duchene's offense could get a boost. Rotowire.com May 11, 11:20 pm
