Paul Statsny (Box 1) is out because of a knee injury. Ryan Smyth (Box 7) is doubtful with his foot injury. Peter Forsberg (Box 6) will likely play, but isn't 100%. Scott Hannan (Box 10) returned last game, but was hurt again and won't be 100%. No Wojtek Wolski (non-pool) or Marek Svatos (non-pool). Yup, the Avalanche are really behind the 8-ball going into Game 4 against Detroit, down 3-0 in the series.
The Avalanche were not favoured to make it out of this series, but there will be a lot of selections lost with the elimination of the Avalanche. 112 selections stand to be lost with the Avalanche, compared to the 144 of the Red Wings. With the way the Avs powered past the Wild, the expectation was that the second round series against Detroit would be much closer.
The game will start at 8pm MT on TSN.
