Neither Peter Mueller nor Erik Johnson on practice ice with Avs today.
Neither played was in the lineup for Wednesday's game and they both seem highly unlikely to play tomorrow against the Oilers.

Erik Johnson News
Johnson is doubtful (sore groin).
If you own Johnson and have a spare defender, you likely want to put him in. The former 1st overall pick has nine assists over 21 games.
Meanwhile, defenseman Erik Johnson crashed into the dasher boards during a drill and left the ice in upper-body pain. He later returned and is fine.
Sounds like Johnson had a scare. Last season he scored eight goals and 29 points through 77 games between the St. Louis Blues and Colorado Avalanche. Expect him to produce around 10 goals and 40 points as the number 1 defender in Colorado.
