On Wednesday, Nazem Kadri reached a milestone by playing his 1,000th NHL game, marking the occasion with a goal. Meanwhile, Nashville faced another loss on Thursday, with Ryan O’Reilly taking complete responsibility for the outcome.
The edition also covers recent injuries affecting teams like Vegas and New Jersey, and highlights an intense contest between some of the top teams in the Eastern Conference.
The first responses from the Avalanche CHN Mailbag addressed concerns about the team’s center depth. Questions ranged from the possibility of adding a third-line center to push Jack Drury down the lineup, to finding a replacement for Zakhar Bardakov, and handling Brock Nelson’s ongoing scoring struggles.
"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."
It appears the Avalanche might benefit from adding another centerman to strengthen their lineup. The questions answered reflect genuine reader inquiries about improving team depth rather than personal opinions on the current roster.
Nazem Kadri’s milestone, Ryan O’Reilly’s accountability for Nashville’s loss, and the Avalanche’s center depth challenges are the main topics explored in this edition of Deen’s Daily.
