INJURIES

Out indefinitely Kiviranta (lower body) is out indefinitely, the team announced Saturday.
Impact Kiviranta hasn't earned a point in five appearances this season while posting three shots on goal, two blocked shots and nine hits. Kiviranta will probably be replaced in Saturday's lineup against Boston by Zakhar Bardakov.
OCTOBER 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Returning to Avs Kiviranta agreed to terms on a one-year contract with Colorado on Friday.
Impact Kiviranta returns to the Avs after racking up 16 goals and seven helpers -- both career highs -- in 79 regular-season contests last year. Despite the solid overall numbers, it was an underwhelming end to the campaign for the 29-year-old winger as he ended the year mired in a 15-game pointless streak, including the playoffs. With Kiviranta back under contract, he figures to slot into a bottom-six role for the club.

Impact Kiviranta last played March 25. He has 16 goals and 23 points in 72 appearances with the Avalanche in 2024-25. His return might result in Jimmy Vesey being a healthy scratch.
APRIL 2, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Available to play Kiviranta (lower body) will be an option for Wednesday's game against Chicago, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.
Impact Kiviranta might return to action after missing the last three games due to injury. He has produced 16 goals, 23 points, 77 shots on net and 103 hits in 72 appearances this season. If Kiviranta draws back into the lineup, Parker Kelly or Logan O'Connor could be a healthy scratch versus the Blackhawks.
APRIL 1, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Won't return against Calgary Kiviranta (lower body) won't play in Monday's game against the Flames, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.
Impact Kiviranta continues to deal with a lower-body injury, and he'll be sidelined for a third consecutive game Monday. It's not yet clear when he'll be able to return, but his next chance to suit up will be Wednesday in Chicago.
MARCH 31, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

MARCH 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Kiviranta has five goals over nine contests in March. He scored the Avalanche's fourth goal in seven minutes in the first period of Thursday's win, chasing Linus Ullmark with the tally.

Avalanche use 4-goal first period to power past Senators 5-1

Nathan MacKinnon, Brock Nelson, Cale Makar and Joel Kiviranta all scored in Colorado’s first-period barrage and the Avalanche cruised to a 5-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators

Four-game goal streak Kiviranta scored a goal in Tuesday's 2-1 shootout loss to Minnesota.
Impact His goal came at the 14:20 mark of the third period when he tipped in a lofted backhand shot from Samuel Girard in the high slot Kiviranta isn't really known for his offense, but he now has 15 goals (six assists) in 66 games this season. And right now, he's on a four-game, four-goal streak. This run is lightning in the proverbial bottle for Kiviranta, but you can't ignore the heat. He may help you in the next couple of games if you're streaming.

Zuccarello scores the shootout winner, Gustavsson stands tall in net and Wild beat Avalanche 2-1

Mats Zuccarello scored the winner in the shootout after also scoring in regulation to give the Minnesota Wild a 2-1 win over the Colorado Avalanche
MARCH 12, 2025 • Associated Press
Nets empty-netter Monday Kiviranta scored an empty-netter in Monday's 3-0 win over the Blackhawks.
Impact Kiviranta has found the back of the net in each of the Avalanche's last three games, but perhaps what's even more impressive is the fact that he's found the twine with his last three shots on goal. The 28-year-old winger has 14 goals and 20 total points in 65 contests this season, but he's trending in the right direction of late after cracking the scoresheet in four of his last five outings.

Lehkonen and Necas score early in 3rd, MacKinnon tops 1,000 points as Avalanche beat Blackhawks 3-0

Artturi Lehkonen and Martin Necas scored in the third period, Nathan MacKinnon topped 1,000 points for his career, and the Colorado Avalanche beat the Chicago Blackhawks 3-0 on Mon...

Goal in each of last two games Kiviranta scored a goal in a 7-4 victory over the Maple Leafs on Saturday.
Impact Kiviranta drove the net at top speed late in the second, and Ross Colton's centering pass went off his skate and between Anthony Stolarz's pads. He has a goal in each of his last two games, but he had just one in the 26 games before that. It's a nice run for Kiviranta, but that doesn't mean he's fantasy worthy.

Colorado takes on San Jose after Lehkonen's 2-goal showing

Avoids scoreless month Kiviranta logged an assist, two hits and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 5-2 win over the Wild.
Impact Kiviranta had been held off the scoresheet for the first seven games of February before helping out on a Ross Colton tally in the second period. The 28-year-old Kiviranta is now at 17 points, 64 shots on net, 87 hits and a plus-8 rating through 61 appearances. He's already produced a career year and just needs to play in 10 more games to set a career high in that area as well. That said, he's also shooting 17.2 percent, so some regression was to be expected following his relatively strong first half of the campaign. Kiviranta is more of a physical depth forward and rarely needs to be considered in fantasy.
