Colorado Avalanche make a surprising move with Chris Wagner

Earlier today, the Colorado Avalanche announced forward Chris Wagner's reassignment to their AHL affiliate, the Colorado Eagles.

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.
