Matt Duchene won’t play tonight, but his status has been upgraded to day-to-day. Sounds like there is a slight chance now he might play in Winnipeg Sunday. I still think it’ll be at home coming off the road trip that he’ll return, but let’s see what tomorrow brings.
Duchene continues to progress but likely needs a few more practices before getting back into the lineup. In 39 games before getting hurt, the former 3rd overall pick scored 12 goals and 24 points.
Matt Duchene is skating again, but the word I’m hearing is he won’t play tonight. I don’t think he’ll play until next week, the first home game back after this trip. But we’ll see about that too.

Matt Duchene is not at Avalanche practice today. I’ll have whatever update the team has on him afterward, but obviously it’s not a great sign. I’ll stick to my prediction of last night’s blog on him though: another couple weeks.
It's been nearly four weeks since Duchene went down. Before getting hurt, he scored 12 goals and 24 points in 39 games. Expect him to return some time in mid-to-late February.
Duchene out at least four weeks with right knee injury
Bad news for Duchene, who will miss all of January at the very least. Knee injuries can be tricky so Duchene may not come back at 100 percent right away. Tough to expect more than one more good month out of him this season.
Duchene still undergoing tests. Results not til later. Sorry
Doesn't sound great for the former 3rd overall pick. Check back for a further update from the team.

Julien on Seguin: "He's in the lineup tonight... He missed a game, he's paid his dues... Page turned and we've moved on" ^BB
Seguin was scratched for disciplinary reasons but expect him to get right back into the lineup. The sophomore has 13 goals and 25 points in 25 games but 11 of those points came in a six-game scoring binge.

Seguin scratched for "attendance issue." More adversity to overcome.
Don't expect Seguin to miss any further playing time as long as he makes team meetings.
Young Avalanche forwards Matt Duchene and Gabriel Landeskog missed practice Sunday but both are expected to play in Monday's game against the Dallas Stars at the Pepsi Center.
Sounds like Duchy is nursing a minor illness and should be fine for tomorrow's game. He currently leads the team in goals with nine and points with 17. Start him with confidence tomorrow.

Duchene is back at left wing on a line with Stastny and Milan Hejduk, a unit that saw success recently.
