EDGE Analysis

Byram made an appearance at Monday's practice on the bench in street clothes, but head coach Jared Bednar indicated the rookie blueliner would practice Tuesday. At the time Monday, the Avalanche were scheduled to resume play Wednesday night at home against Dallas, which may have been too quick a turnaround time for Byram, who's been on the shelf since Dec. 1. The NHL, however, as since postponed Wednesday's tilt as well as a rematch between the two teams Friday in Dallas. That gives Byram six days to prepare for the next scheduled contest, Sunday, at home against Anaheim.
