Ross Colton - Distributes three helpers Colton notched three assists, four shots on goal, two hits and a plus-3 rating in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Senators.

Impact Colton had been limited to just three helpers over his previous 17 games before matching that output in this huge win. The 29-year-old helped out on goals by Josh Manson, Brent Burns and Brock Nelson. Colton has filled a middle-six role this season, earning five goals, 14 helpers, 94 shots on net, 93 hits and a plus-12 rating across 43 outings.

Brent Burns - Tallies in Thursday's win Burns scored a goal on five shots, blocked three shots and went plus-2 in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Senators.

Impact Burns had been limited to one assist over eight contests since the end of his six-game point streak. The 40-year-old defenseman isn't relied on to be a leader on offense from the back end anymore, but he can still chip in a decent share. He's logged six goals, 21 points, 93 shots on net, 53 blocks, 18 PIM and a plus-23 rating across 43 appearances this season in a top-four role.

Martin Necas - Goal, assist in blowout win Necas scored a power-play goal on two shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Senators.

Impact Necas had gone four games without a goal, and two contests without a point, entering Thursday's action. The 26-year-old winger is up to 20 goals, 55 points, 97 shots on net, 46 hits and a plus-39 rating over 43 appearances this season. Necas is still in position to push for his first 100-point campaign as a part of the Avalanche's high-flying offense.

Cale Makar - Three-point effort in big win Makar scored a goal and added two power-play assists in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Senators.

Impact Makar's goal stood as the game-winner, and he added secondary helpers on goals by Martin Necas and Brock Nelson during the Avalanche's onslaught of offense in the second period. The 27-year-old Makar has three goals and eight helpers over his last nine outings. For the season, the superstar defenseman is up to 13 goals, 38 helpers, 119 shots on net, 74 blocked shots and a plus-30 rating over 43 appearances. He's the first blueliner to cross the 50-point threshold in 2025-26.

Brock Nelson - Surge continues with three points Nelson scored twice and added an assist in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Senators.

Impact Nelson's first goal was a power-play tally that helped him secure his fifth-straight 20-goal season. The 34-year-old is on a tear with seven goals and five assists over his last seven outings. The center is now at 21 tallies, 37 points (10 on the power play), 93 shots on net, 34 blocked shots and a plus-13 rating over 43 appearances this season.

Nathan MacKinnon - Rings up four points again MacKinnon scored a goal on five shots and dished three assists in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Senators.

Impact Two of MacKinnon's helpers came on the power play. This was his third four-point effort in the last five games, though he had been held off the scoresheet in the last two matchups versus the Panthers and Lightning. The superstar center has rarely been quiet for long this season, accumulating a stunning 36 goals, 42 assists, 197 shots on net and a plus-48 rating through 43 appearances.

Josh Manson - Two of each in win Manson scored twice on five shots, added two assists, went plus-5, logged seven PIM, doled out three hits and blocked four shots in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Senators.

Impact It's safe to say this was Manson's best game of the season, if not his whole career. He came a fight away from the NHL's first double Gordie Howe hat trick, though it makes sense that he didn't take any unnecessary risks for his health in a blowout win. The 34-year-old defenseman hadn't scored since Nov. 26, but he's been a steady source of helpers, hits and PIM lately, earning 11 assists, 23 PIM and 44 hits over the previous 17 contests, not including his epic performance Thursday. Overall, the blueliner is at four goals, 19 points, 62 shots on net, 58 PIM, 107 hits, 60 blocked shots and a plus-32 rating through 43 outings in 2025-26.

17 HOURS AGO • ROTOWIRE

Scott Wedgewood - Easy win Thursday Wedgewood stopped 29 of 31 shots in Thursday's 8-2 win over the Senators.

Impact Wedgewood did more than well enough as the Avalanche's offense erupted with a six-goal second period to make it easy for their goalie. The 33-year-old had lost consecutive games in regulation for the first time this season entering this contest. He's now 19-3-4 with a 2.19 GAA and a .917 save percentage over 28 starts. Wedgewood will continue to patrol the crease regularly while Mackenzie Blackwood (lower body) is on injured reserve, so it's safe to assume Wedgewood will get the nod versus the Blue Jackets on Saturday.

Ivan Ivan - Sent down after game Ivan was reassigned to AHL Colorado after Thursday's 8-2 win over the Senators.

Impact Ivan was up to help replenish the Avalanche's forward depth, which has been hit by some medium-to-long-term injuries. His demotion leaves the Avalanche with just 11 healthy forwards, but it's possible a different player will be called up ahead of Saturday's game versus the Blue Jackets.
