Samuel Girard Ready To Return Wednesday
2 years agoColorado Avalanche defenseman Samuel Girard (lower body) will return from a six-game absence Wednesday versus Vancouver. The team gets much-needed help at the back, with multiple defensemen currently sidelined. Girard will join Josh Manson on the second defensive pairing and he will also be skating on the second power-play unit. The 24-year-old will look to add to four points. He has also amassed 15 shots, nine hits and seven blocks in 11 games this season, carrying a minus-three rating. With the defending champions currently picking everybody apart, Girard should get his plus/minus in order pretty quickly.
