Colorado Avalanche make a surprising move with Chris Wagner

This move hints at the return of Mikko Rantanen to the lineup after missing two games due to a concussion.

Wagner has played four of the last five games, averaging 6:45 of ice time and scoring one goal.

Having signed a one-year, $775K contract extension, he transitions back to AHL Colorado after stints as a depth forward.

With three games left in the regular season, the Avalanche aims to secure a fourth-straight Division title despite a recent loss to the Dallas Stars.
