Josh Manson Returns To Avalanche Lineup
2 years agoColorado Avalanche defenseman Josh Manson (lower body) will suit up for the first time since March 1 when the team starts its Stanley Cup Playoffs first-round series against Seattle on Tuesday. Colorado has had awful luck with injuries throughout the campaign and Game 1 of the playoffs will mark the first time this season all defensemen are available for selection. Manson himself was limited to only 27 appearances during the regular season. He's known as a defensive blue-liner but also showed some offensive ability when healthy, posting two goals and 10 points. The 31-year-old finished with 64 hits and 41 blocks while having a plus-13 rating. Mason will skate with Samuel Girard on the second defensive pairing.
