Brindley picked up two assists in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Blue Jackets.

EDGE Analysis

Facing the team that selected him 34th overall in the 2023 Draft, Brindley snapped an 11-game point drought by having a hand in a pair of Brent Burns tallies, including the GWG in the first period. Brindley has shown occasional glimpses of upside in his first full season in the NHL, and through his first 31 games with Colorado he's managed five goals and 11 points with 37 shots on net, 25 hits and a plus-8 rating.

Brindley (lower body) will play Sunday against the Panthers, according to the NHL Media site.

EDGE Analysis

Brindley was injured during Wednesday's 6-1 victory over the Blues and missed Saturday's contest against the Hurricanes as a result. It will be just a one game absence for the 21-year-old as he is set to return for Sunday's battle with the Panthers. He has registered nine points (five goals, four assists) in 27 games played.

Brindley (lower body) will miss Saturday's game in Carolina, per Corey Masisak of The Denver Post.

EDGE Analysis

Brindley has five goals and nine points in 27 appearances in 2025-26. Taylor Makar is expected to draw into the lineup due to Brindley's absence.

Brindley (lower body) is day-to-day, and he'll travel with the Avalanche to Carolina ahead of Saturday's game against the Hurricanes, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post.

EDGE Analysis

Brindley sustained the injury during Wednesday's 6-1 win over St. Louis. He has five goals and nine points in 27 appearances in 2025-26. If Brindley plays Saturday, it will probably be as part of the fourth line.

Brindley (upper body) tweaked something in Wednesday's game versus the Blues and will be evaluated Thursday, Bailey Curtis of DNVR Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's not exactly clear when Brindley sustained the injury, but he can be considered day-to-day for now. The Avalanche have a back-to-back ahead, visiting the Hurricanes on Saturday and the Panthers on Sunday. Joel Kiviranta (lower body) is also ailing, so the Avalanche may need to make a roster move to replenish their forward depth before their three-game road trip.

Brindley scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, added two PIM and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Panthers.

EDGE Analysis

Brindley missed nine games due to a lower-body injury and sat out Tuesday as a healthy scratch. He drew back in for Zakhar Bardakov in this contest, and Brindley's performance suggests he'll be sticking in the lineup moving forward. The 21-year-old forward is at a total of nine points, 25 shots on net, 19 hits and a plus-5 rating through 19 appearances this season.

Brindley (lower body) was activated from injured reserve Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Following a nine-game absence, Brindley will be available to return to the lineup against Nashville on Tuesday. He has collected four goals, seven points, 22 shots on net and 19 hits in 18 games this season. Brindley could have an increased role in Tuesday's matchup if Martin Necas (illness) is unavailable.

Brindley (lower body) was moved to injured reserve Saturday, per the NHL media site.

EDGE Analysis

Brindley has missed the last eight games, including Saturday's 3-2 overtime win over the Rangers. He is with the Avalanche for the team's road trip, which has two contests remaining, but it's unclear when he will be ready to return to the lineup. Brindley has provided four goals, seven points, 22 shots on net and 19 hits in 18 outings this season.

Brindley (lower body) will join the Avalanche on their upcoming four-game road trip and might play before the end of it, per Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Colorado visits the Islanders on Thursday, the Rangers on Saturday, Philadelphia on Sunday and Nashville on Tuesday. Brindley hasn't played since Nov. 20 due to the injury. The 21-year-old has four goals and seven points in 18 appearances this season.

Brindley (lower body) is week-to-week, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

There's no firm timeline for the 21-year-old forward's return, but he will be evaluated further in a few weeks. Tristen Nielsen and Jason Polin are likely to both be in the lineup at least for Saturday's game versus the Predators. The Avalanche have made a lot of adjustments to their depth forwards via roster moves this year, so numerous players from AHL Colorado could be in the mix to help cover Brindley's absence.
