According to Colorado Avalanche reporter Adrian Dater, forward Nazem Kadri, who missed a second consecutive practice due to a non-COVID illness, may have to sit out Game 1 of the series against the Nashville Predators.

If Head Coach Jared Bednar is without his second centre, Alex Newhook will be promoted to the second line immediately.
