Kadri carries heavy ice time and PP1 role into favorable matchup vs Penguins
Nazem Kadri and the Avalanche host the Pittsburgh Penguins tonight at Ball Arena in what shapes up as an advantageous higher-scoring environment. Colorado enters as a clear home favorite looking to improve on its 4–3–1 record against a struggling Pittsburgh squad. Kadri is entrenched on Colorado's second line alongside Brock Nelson and Gabriel Landeskog while retaining coveted top power-play duties with Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar. Although he is still seeking his first goal, he has three assists and 18 shots through six contests while logging over 20 minutes a night. Facing Arturs Silovs (confirmed) in net, Kadri is in a prime spot.
Our projection has Kadri slated for ~1 point and ~2–3 shots on goal tonight, with reasonable power-play upside translating to approximately 3.4 fantasy points. That makes him an effective contributor, especially with his high-leverage PP1 minutes against Pittsburgh's defense. Looking at the weekly picture, this matchup represents Colorado's third and final game of the week, with our weekly projection calling for 3.6 fantasy points overall across this three-game stretch. Fantasy managers needing a scoring boost to close the week should keep him active. Today’s action: Start.
