Francouz led the Avalanche onto the ice for warmups.

Francouz was perfect, stopping all 29 shots for his first shutout of the season as he won his third start in four tries with a victory over Ottawa last game. The 32-year-old backup started the year slow but has been sensational as of late, with his 5-6-0 record, 2.57 GAA and .919 SV%. He faces the Detroit Red Wings for an afternoon showdown Monday, who lost their last game 4-3 to Columbus and are 20th in the NHL in goals per game (3.1).

Pavel Francouz is day-to-day, possibly week-to-week with an injury from before the break.

Francouz is 4-5-0 with a 2.80 GAA and .913 SV% but is considered day-to-day and will miss the Avalanches' game Tuesday as he deals with a lower-body injury. Jonas Johansson was recalled from the Colorado Eagles (AHL) to replace Francouz for the time being.
