Dries was demoted to the minors Thursday, Ryan S. Clark of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Dries hasn't seen significant ice time this season (9:19 per game), but has played in 29 contests this year and should find his way back up to the Avs following the All-Star break. Once Vladislav Kamenev (shoulder) is cleared to return, Dries will likely find himself relegated to the press box.

Dries was recalled from AHL Colorado on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Prior to his recent stint in the minors, Dries was bogged down in a nine-game goal drought, during which he managed just one helper while averaging 11:51 of ice time. Whether the youngster suits up versus the Islanders on Monday will likely depend on the health of Alex Kerfoot (upper body).

Dries was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Dries missed the last two games as a healthy scratch, but the Avalanche have won six straight and need more help on the blue line than the center spot, which is where Dries had been playing.

Dries had a goal and assist while taking only one shot during Thursday's 6-5 loss to Calgary.

EDGE Analysis

Dries was recalled from the AHL on Tuesday and cashed in with two points during his first game back in the pros. The points were his first two of the year as he was involved in two of Colorado's five goals. The forward has seen limited time-on-ice in his five games played this year, so he isn't the best fantasy option at this point in time.

The Avalanche recalled Dries from AHL Colorado on Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Dries has drawn into four NHL contests thus far in 2018-19, but he has averaged just 6:54 of ice time per contest during his time with the club. While that hasn't prevented him from recording six shots on goal in addition to four penalty minutes, it's unlikely Dries will provide much in terms of fantasy value even if he's in the lineup Thursday against the Flames.

The Avalanche reassigned Dries to AHL Colorado on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Dries has been a healthy scratch for two of the Avalanche's last three games, so this move doesn't come as much of a surprise. The 24-year-old pivot will continue to be on the big club's short list of potential call-ups throughout the campaign.

Dries was called up from AHL Colorado on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The Western Michigan University product has defied the odds of reaching hockey's highest level as an undrafted center. He's only 5-foot-9 and 185 pounds, but Dries is a dual threat in the sense that he can score and set up goals all the same. Avalanche coach Jared Bednar has been reluctant to give him much playing time (6:19 through his first three NHL games) right out of the gate, but Dries should gradually pick up more shifts as the season progresses.

Dries was reassigned to AHL San Antonio on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Dries failed to find the box score in the first three games, though he did record four shots on goal, four penalty minutes, five hits and a blocked shot in extremely limited ice time. He could return to the top level later on in the campaign, but he will serve as organizational depth for now.

Dries opened the scoring for the Avalanche in their 5-3 road win over the Golden Knights on Monday.

EDGE Analysis

Dries is a pure goal scorer who lit the lamp 10 times over 22 playoff games with AHL Texas last season. He signed an entry-level contract with the Avalanche in July, so it's likely that he'll continue his professional career with the team's new developmental affiliate, AHL Colorado, this coming season.
