Manson notched an assist and three shots on goal in Monday's 6-5 win over the Flames.

EDGE Analysis

Manson was deemed a game-time decision with an undisclosed issue, but it was apparently minor enough for him to play through. The 32-year-old logged 19:28 of ice time in his usual second-pairing role. Manson has two goals and four assists over his last six games, accounting for all but one of his seven points through 25 outings overall. He's added 37 shots on net, 46 hits, 37 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a plus-1 rating as a physical presence for the Avalanche.

EDGE Analysis

Manson has been rolling offensively of late with two goals and three assists in his last five contests, including a two-point effort versus the Flyers on Saturday. If Manson is unable to play Monday, the Avalanche will likely replace him with Caleb Jones in a bottom-four role.

Manson scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist and added three hits in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Flyers.

EDGE Analysis

Manson was solid Saturday, getting involved on both goals in the loss. His last multi-point effort was on Nov. 26, 2022, though he missed large chunks of last season with injuries. The 32-year-old has earned five of his six points this year over the last five games. He's added 34 shots on net, 46 hits, 37 blocked shots and 32 PIM through 24 appearances. Even with the Avalanche's blue line near full strength, aside from the absence of Samuel Girard (personal), Manson is holding down a second-pairing role.

EDGE Analysis

Manson has started December on a three-game point streak, logging a goal and two assists in that span. He was limited to one helper over his first 19 outings of the season. The 32-year-old defenseman has added 30 shots on net, 42 hits, 37 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-1 rating this season. Manson has mainly played in a bottom-four role, though with Cale Makar (lower body) day-to-day and Bowen Byram (upper body) sustaining an injury Tuesday, Manson could get a longer look in the top four.

Manson scored a goal on two shots, blocked two shots and added two PIM in Sunday's 4-1 loss to the Kings.

EDGE Analysis

Manson was bumped up to the top pairing at even strength with Cale Makar (undisclosed) out of action. The goal at 12:28 of the first period was Manson's first tally of the campaign, though it was also all the Avalanche could put past Cam Talbot. Manson has three points through 21 outings this season, though two of them have come over the last two games. He's added 27 shots on net, 40 hits, 33 blocked shots, 32 PIM and a minus-3 rating. While he may absorb most of Makar's minutes, Manson's playing style doesn't make for a particularly reliable fantasy profile.

Manson produced an assist, three shots on goal, six hits, two blocked shots and two PIM in Saturday's 4-3 shootout loss to the Ducks.

EDGE Analysis

Manson snapped a 15-game point drought with a helper on Bowen Byram's second goal of the game. With Samuel Girard (personal) on an indefinite leave from the team, Manson has stepped up in a top-four role, averaging 18:23 of ice time per game across his last four contests.
