- The Colorado Avalanche will be without defenseman Cale Makar for their upcoming game against the Dallas Stars due to an undisclosed injury.
- Makar did not participate in the team's morning skate and will not be in the lineup for the game.
- The Avalanche will need to adjust their defensive pairings, likely pairing Samuel Girard with Erik Johnson, and may also need to make changes to their forward lines to compensate for Makar's absence.
