Newhook had three shots on net and four PIM in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Kraken.

EDGE Analysis

Newhook was in the box when Seattle scored its first goal, then was whistled for an offensive zone high sticking late in the third period, dashing any hopes of an Avalanche comeback. He also had a good scoring chance but was stymied by Philipp Grubauer. Newhook's slow start -- zero points through five games and a 30.6 faceoff winning percentage -- prompted a demotion from the second line to the third.
