Foligno was put on injured reserve Thursday, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

Foligno left Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win over Chicago due to the injury. His placement on IR rules him out for Minnesota's next three games, but he is eligible to be activated ahead of the Wild's clash in Calgary on Dec. 4. Hunter Haight will likely draw into the lineup Friday versus Colorado due to Foligno's absence.

Dobes will guard the road goal against Colorado on Saturday, according to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports.

EDGE Analysis

Dobes will get the second half of Montreal's back-to-back after Sam Montembeault plays in Friday's road matchup against Vegas. The 24-year-old Dobes has won his last two outings while stopping 55 of 60 shots. He has earned a record of 8-2-2 with a 2.89 GAA and an .897 save percentage through 12 appearances this season. Colorado ranks first in the league with 4.09 goals per game this campaign.

Montembeault will defend the road net against the Golden Knights on Friday, Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Montembeault has allowed 12 goals on 64 shots in his last four appearances while going 0-2-0 over that span. He has a 4-5-1 record with a 3.72 GAA and an .852 save percentage across 12 appearances this season. Vegas is tied for 13th in the league with 3.09 goals per game this campaign.

Groshev was reassigned to AHL Syracuse on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Groshev was a healthy scratch in both games this week. He has yet to make his NHL debut, after the 23-year-old was selected in the third round, 85th overall, in 2020. Groshev had six assists in 17 AHL games before his recall.

Roslovic (undisclosed) didn't participate in Thursday's practice and is questionable for Saturday's game against Seattle, Tony Brar of Oilers TV reports.

EDGE Analysis

Roslovic has compiled 10 goals, 18 points and 53 shots on net across 23 appearances this season. With Curtis Lazar (upper body) and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins (undisclosed) set to return to the lineup versus the Kraken, the Oilers have options to offset the potential loss of Roslovic.

Lazar (upper body) is slated to return to the lineup Saturday in Seattle, per Tony Brar of Oilers TV.

EDGE Analysis

Lazar missed four games with the injury. The 30-year-old journeyman has one goal in nine games with the Oilers this season. He should line up on the fourth line against the Kraken.

Solovyov was scratched for the 10th straight game in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Solovyov isn't getting much of a chance to play now that the Avalanche have their preferred six blueliners all healthy. The team may be hesitant to waive him, as he was claimed off waivers from the Flames prior to the start of the season. In nine appearances, Solovyov has nine shots on net, 11 hits, 15 blocked shots, four PIM and a minus-4 rating, so he's unlikely to produce much offense even if he gets a run of time in the lineup.

Ivan logged an assist and two shots on goal in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

This was Ivan's season debut at the NHL level. He had six points in 18 AHL appearances prior to his call-up. The Avalanche have rotated a number of forwards into and out of fourth-line spots this season, so Ivan may not stick there for a long stretch. He'll almost certainly head back to the AHL if Valeri Nichushkin (lower body) is able to return soon.

Manson scored a goal on three shots, added two hits, blocked four shots and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Manson stretched the Avalanche's lead to 4-0 in the second period. The 34-year-old defenseman has two goals, four points, 29 shots on net, 57 hits, 33 blocked shots, 28 PIM and a plus-13 rating over 23 appearances this season. He's mostly seen bottom-four minutes, though his production in the physical categories makes him a decent option in banger leagues. Manson has earned two of his four points over the last six contests.

Kiviranta scored a goal on three shots, added two PIM and logged two hits in Wednesday's 6-0 win over the Sharks.

EDGE Analysis

Kiviranta saw 13:19 of ice time in his return from a 17-game absence due to a lower-body injury. The 29-year-old winger's return bolsters the Avalanche's forward depth, though he's unlikely to see enough ice time in scoring situations to make a big impact in fantasy. The goal was his first point in six outings this season to go with six shots on net, 11 hits and a plus-2 rating.
