Colorado Avalanche DFS SPIN
Cale Makar had a season-high eight shots along with two hits and two blocked shots over a team-high 28:25 of ice time in Friday’s 2-1 shootout loss to the Rangers. Makar nearly won it late in overtime, deking a defender for a point-blank attempt from the slot, but Igor Shesterkin made a nice glove save to preserve the tied game. Makar, who is already an offensively gifted blueliner, will take on an outsized role for the next few weeks with several teammates unavailable. One injured Av — Valeri Nichushkin — returned Friday, but Colorado still has Nathan MacKinnon (upper body), Gabriel Landeskog (knee), Artturi Lehkonen (upper body) and Evan Rodrigues (lower body) on various timelines.
ST. Louis Blues DFS SPIN
Pavel Buchnevich (lower body) hasn’t been ruled out yet for Sunday’s matchup with Colorado, Lou Korac of NHL.com reports. Buchnevich didn’t practice again Saturday, but the Blues will see how he feels Sunday morning before determining his status. The 27-year-old forward has missed the past two games. Buchnevich has amassed 20 points (nine goals, 11 assists) in 20 contests this campaign.
