Colorado solidified its depth for the next four seasons after signing forward Parker Kelly to a four-year, $6.8 million contract extension ($1,700,000 AAV) on Tuesday. The 26-year-old spent the first four years of his career in Ottawa before signing with Colorado last season and posting career highs in both goals (8) and points (19) in his first season as an Avalanche player in 2024-25.

Kelly did not play in Colorado's previous game, but he will re-enter the lineup on Tuesday against the Detroit Red Wings. The 25-year-old Kelly is averaging 12:48 time-on-ice and has 17 points (7G / 10A) in 69 games this season.

Kelly will draw into the lineup on Tuesday along with Sam Malinski and Logan O'Connor as the Avalanche opt to get some fresh legs into the lineup for the tail-end of their back-to-back. Erik Johnson, Miles Wood, and Jimmy Vesey will all be scratched.

Colorado added to its depth on Monday by signing Parker Kelly to two-year deal worth $1.65 million ($825K AAV). The 25-year-old had a career year in 2023-24, with eight goals, 10 assists, 30 PIMs and 86 SOG in 80 games played.

Kelly will be sidelined for two games after his hit on Englund in Thursday's game in Los Angeles. Kelly will be eligible to return from his suspension for next Thursday's game in Columbus.

Kelly last played on March 12th but will not miss the remained for the 2022-23 season as he deals with a broken kneecap. The 23-year-old left winger had a goal, three assists, 59 SOG, 37 PIMs and a -9 plus/minus through 55 games played prior to the injury.

Kelly has a goal, three assists, 59 SOG, 37 PIMs and a -9 plus/minus through 55 games played but is doubtful to play Tuesday vs. Edmonton due to an undisclosed injury. The Senators should announce his availability during warmups as he is a game-time decision.

Kelly will head to the press box as the odd man out for the second time this season as Ottawa takes on Dallas Thursday. Kelly has struggled this season, collecting only one assist, 18 PIMs and 16 SOG through 24 GP while playing limited minutes averaging 8:43 TOI.

Parker Kelly will head to the press box for Derick Brassard Thursday vs. Tampa Bay for the first time this season. The 23-year-old has yet to acquire a point this season through nine games, but does have 18 PIMs while only getting two SOG.

Kelly, who will be playing in his first NHL game since March 16th, will replace Tyler Ennis in the lineup in Montreal. Kelly has scored five goals with one assist while averaging just 9:41 TOI/gm in 27 games with Ottawa this season.

Kelley is a 22-year-old undrafted free agent, who scored a goal in his NHL debut with the Senators last season. He spent almost the entire season in the AHL, scoring 10 goals with eight assists (18 points) in 33 games with Belleville.

Kelly was an undrafted free agent signing out of the WHL (Prince Albert) who has scored seven goals with five assists (12 points) in 28 games this season. On Wednesday he will skate with Logan Brown and Alex Formenton on the Senators' fourth line.
