Nazem Kadri marked a milestone by playing his 1,000th NHL game on Wednesday, celebrating with a goal. Meanwhile, Nashville suffered another defeat on Thursday, with Ryan O’Reilly taking full responsibility for the outcome.
Updates include injury reports from Vegas and New Jersey, as well as a tight contest between leading Eastern Conference teams. Additionally, the Colorado Avalanche responded to questions from the CHN Mailbag.
Several mailbag submissions focused on the Avalanche's center position, discussing options such as adding a third-line center to push Jack Drury down, replacing Zakhar Bardakov, or addressing Brock Nelson’s ongoing scoring struggles.
The team may benefit from including an additional centerman in the lineup to bolster depth.
"I asked for questions from the readers and I am responding to what readers would like to know. I understand and I’m fully aware that the Avs are No. I am not looking past their goal scoring prowess or their underlying numbers at five-on-five. I am just answering hypothetical questions with hypothetical scenarios."
Celebrating Kadri’s 1,000th game was a highlight, especially as he found the back of the net during the milestone match.
