Snags assist with man advantage Drouin logged a power-play assist in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Stars in Game 4.

Impact Drouin is up to three helpers, all on the power play, over four playoff contests. However, his outlook is dimming -- he was bumped down to the third line Saturday and saw a team-low 9:53 of ice time, while Gabriel Landeskog moved into the top six and took over Drouin's spot on the first power-play unit. Drouin has added four shots on net, three hits, three blocked shots and a minus-2 rating. He's struggled at times when the Avalanche were healthy and he saw less time, so this move doesn't bode well for his short-term production.

Collects power-play helper Drouin notched a power-play assist and two blocked shots in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Stars in Game 1.

Impact Drouin helped out on a Nathan MacKinnon tally in the second period. The 30-year-old Drouin was on a three-game skid before missing the final six contests of the regular season due to a lower-body injury. He'll be a factor in a top-six role and should see time on the first power-play unit for much of the postseason, though he could give way to Gabriel Landeskog (knee) in that role if or when the Avalanche's captain returns to the lineup.

Ready for Game 1 Drouin (lower body) will be available for Game 1 against Dallas on Saturday, according to Meghan Angley of Guerilla Sports.

Impact Drouin missed the final six games of the regular season, finishing with 11 goals, 37 points and 56 shots on net across 43 appearances. He will occupy a top-six role and see time on the power play during the playoffs.

Skipping road trip Drouin (lower body) will not travel with the Avs for their season-ending, two-game road trip, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports Friday.

Impact Drouin has already missed four games due to his lower-body injury and will now be shelved for another two while staying back in Colorado. Despite playing in just 43 games this year, the 30-year-old center has been relatively productive with 11 goals and 26 helpers, including 12 power-play points. Despite his absence for the last two games of the regular season, Drouin should still be an option during the postseason.

Won't play against Vancouver Drouin (lower body) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Canucks, Aarif Deen of Colorado Hockey Now reports.

Impact Although Drouin will be unavailable for a fourth consecutive game Thursday, head coach Jared Bednar said that the 30-year-old will likely be able to return this weekend, as the Avalanche have a back-to-back set that includes a matchup against Los Angeles on Saturday and a game against Anaheim on Sunday. Over 19 appearances since the 4 Nations Face-Off break, Drouin has logged five goals, 10 assists, seven hits, seven blocked shots and four PIM while averaging 16:30 of ice time.

Unavailable Tuesday Drouin (lower body) won't be in the lineup against Vegas on Tuesday, per Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette.

Impact Drouin is still day-to-day and will miss his third straight game. After Tuesday's outing, Colorado has three games remaining, including Sunday's regular-season finale versus Anaheim, and it's unclear if Drouin will return to the lineup before the playoffs. He has produced 11 goals, 37 points and 56 shots on net across 43 appearances this season.

Not playing Saturday Drouin (lower body) won't play versus St. Louis on Saturday, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports.

Impact Drouin is day-to-day and will miss his second straight game. He has generated 11 goals, 37 points and 56 shots on net across 43 appearances this season. With Drouin and Martin Necas (upper body) unavailable, Miles Wood and Jimmy Vesey have occupied middle-six roles in the lineup.

APRIL 5, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Thursday Drouin (lower body) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Columbus, Mark Scheig of The Hockey Writers reports.

Impact Drouin sustained a lower-body injury during Wednesday's game against the Blackhawks, and he'll be unavailable for the second half of the back-to-back set. Martin Necas (undisclosed) will also be unavailable Thursday, so Jimmy Vesey and Miles Wood will enter Colorado's lineup. Drouin's next chance to suit up will be Saturday in St. Louis.

APRIL 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Exits Wednesday's game Drouin (lower body) won't return to Wednesday's game versus the Blackhawks, Jesse Montano of Guerilla Sports reports.

Impact Drouin's injury comes in the first half of a back-to-back, leaving his status for Thursday's game versus the Blue Jackets in doubt. Miles Wood or Jimmy Vesey would draw in if Drouin can't suit up Thursday, while Ross Colton or Logan O'Connor would be in line for more ice time.

One of each on power play Drouin scored a goal and added an assist, both on the power play, in Thursday's 4-0 win over the Kings.

Impact Drouin helped out on the second of Martin Necas' goals in the second period before scoring one of his own in the third. This was Drouin's fourth multi-point effort over the last six games, and he's earned at least one power-play point in five of those outings. The 29-year-old is up to 11 goals, 37 points (12 on the power play), 54 shots on net and a plus-5 rating through 40 contests in 2024-25. He's finding steady success in a top-six role, and he's even been on the top line with Nathan MacKinnon in the last few games.

Two more assists in win Drouin logged two assists, two shots on goal and a plus-2 rating in Tuesday's 5-2 win over the Red Wings.

Impact Drouin set up a Valeri Nichushkin goal in the first period and a Nathan MacKinnon power-play tally in the third. This was Drouin's third multi-point effort in the last five games, a span in which he has a goal and six assists. He's played on the top line in the last two contests, so more opportunity should lead to strong scoring numbers. The 29-year-old is at 10 goals, 25 helpers, 53 shots on net and a plus-5 rating across 39 appearances this season. This would be his best points-per-game pace (0.90) in his career.

Pockets two helpers Thursday Drouin picked up two assists, one on the power play, in Thursday's 5-1 win over the Senators.

Impact The 29-year-old has been able to stay mostly healthy since the calendar flipped to 2025, and Drouin is beginning to reap the benefits. Over the last eight games, he's produced three multi-point performances while totaling three goals and seven points, including a goal and three helpers with the man advantage.

Tallies pair of points Drouin put away a goal, registered a power-play assist and added two shots on target in Sunday's 4-3 overtime win over the Stars.

Impact Drouin's power-play helper was in the first period before he found the back of the net himself late in the second period. With his two tallies, Drouin eclipsed both the 10-goal mark and 20-assist threshold on the season. With 30 points in 35 games, the 29-year-old is third on Colorado's active roster in points among forwards. Drouin has made a strong impact for the Avalanche in his limited action this season. He holds a spot on Colorado's top power-play unit and can make an impact in deeper leagues in fantasy with the playoffs fast approaching. He is in a great spot to surpass the 40-point mark for the fifth time in his career.
