Jonathan Bernier Returns Saturday For Avalanche
7 years agoColorado Avalanche netminder Jonathan Bernier will get the start against the Arizona Coyotes, his first start since his injury. Bernier suffered a concussion in the game against the Winnipeg Jets, which landed him on Injured Reserve, but he will return to the crease for his 30th start of the season. It seems that Bernier and Semyon Varlamov have been swapping injuries this season, however, both have filled in admirably for each other. Bernier has a .914 save percentage and 2.82 goals-against average, but he is 11-4-0 on home ice. The Coyotes have been strong in their last 10 games (7-2-1), averaging 31.7 shots per game. Bernier might be slow off the draw but is still a strong spot start Saturday.
