Ross Colton News

Ross Colton  • C  •  Avalanche

Colorado Avalanche forwards Logan O'Connor (hip) and Ross Colton (upper body) will be in the lineup on Tuesday against the Pittsburgh Penguins.

Colton will skate with Brock Nelson and Valeri Nichushkin on the second line. Meanwhile, O'Connor will join the third line, linking up with Parker Kelly and Nazem Kadri. Nicolas Roy (upper body) isn't available on Tuesday, while Gavin Brindley will be a healthy scratch.

Ross Colton Still Out Friday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (upper body) is not ready to rejoin the lineup on Friday against the Chicago Blackhawks. He will be out of action for a fifth consecutive game due to an upper-body injury. Colorado's frontline will also remain without Gabriel Landeskog (lower body) and Artturi Lehkonen (upper body), though Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar expects the injured trio to return during the team's four-game road trip, which begins on Friday night. With several forwards on the shelf, Nicolas Roy will skate on the second line against Chicago, giving him more fantasy value.

Ross Colton Suffers Upper-Body Injury Tuesday Night

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (upper body) left Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Edmonton Oilers midway through the second period. Colton scored the first goal of the game just 32 seconds into the first frame, but he couldn't finish the contest due to an upper-body injury. "He took a shot from a player during the game and then he kind of tightened up," Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar said postgame. "So, he's got an upper-body injury, and hopefully he loosens up for tomorrow and can play in Seattle (on Thursday)." Colorado has recently lost Gabriel Landeskog (lower body) and Artturi Lehkonen (upper body) from its top-six group, so the team will be desperate to have Colton available on Thursday.

Ross Colton Won't Play Wednesday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (lower body) will miss a third consecutive game on Wednesday night against the Ottawa Senators. He suffered a lower-body injury a week ago and is considered day-to-day. Colorado has been hopeful that Colton will return at some point during the team's current four-game road trip. There are two more stops on the trip: Thursday in Montreal and Saturday in Detroit. With Colton and Gabriel Landeskog (upper body) on the shelf, Victor Olofsson has received an opportunity on the first line. Meanwhile, Taylor Makar has slotted into the third line.

Ross Colton Won't Play Friday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (lower body) will miss Friday's clash against the Philadelphia Flyers. He sustained a lower-body injury during Wednesday's loss to the Anaheim Ducks and is considered day-to-day. Friday's game will mark Colton's first absence of the season. He has tallied 20 points (five goals, 15 assists) in 48 contests. Joel Kiviranta (lower body) is ready to return from a 10-game absence and will fill in for Colton on Friday. The Finnish forward is having a disappointing season and shouldn't draw fantasy interest. Colton's first chance to return will be on Sunday against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Ross Colton Good to Go Friday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (upper body) will suit up on Friday against the Nashville Predators. Initially, he was doubtful for the game after skipping Thursday's practice due to an upper-body injury. Colton has logged 20 points (five goals, 15 assists) across 45 outings in 2025-26. With Gabriel Landeskog (upper body) sidelined, Colton has received an opportunity to feature in the top six. He has responded by recording four assists over the past three games. However, Colton hasn't scored a goal for 22 consecutive appearances.

Ross Colton Uncertain for Friday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (upper body) is questionable for Friday's matchup against the Nashville Predators, Evan Rawal of the Denver Gazette reports. Colton has yet to miss a game this season, recording 20 points (five goals, 15 assists) in 45 outings. He has recently skated on the second line due to Gabriel Landeskog's (upper body) absence. If Colton is ruled out for Friday, Victor Olofsson or Gavin Brindley might get a chance in the top six. However, this is a tricky matchup for Colorado against a team that's lost only a handful of games since December.

Ross Colton Healthy for Start of Season

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (groin) is back to 100 percent for the start of the season. Per Brennan Vogt of Hockey Mountain High, Colton took part in an informal skate on Monday. A pulled groin ended Colton's regular season early in the spring, and he featured in only one playoff game. The 28-year-old also missed time due to a broken foot, scoring 29 points (13 goals, 16 assists) in 61 games with 125 shots and delivering 145 hits. This season, Colton will probably be limited to a third-line role as long as the Avalanche stay healthy, but he could see some power-play time.

Ross Colton To Remain Out For Game 7

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (lower body) skated on Saturday morning but will not join the lineup for Game 7 against the Dallas Stars. Colton wore a red non-contact jersey during the morning skate. The 28-year-old missed the final four regular-season games and has not played against the Stars since the series opener. Colton averaged close to 0.5 points per game during the regular season, finishing with 16 goals and 13 assists in 61 games. If Colorado wins on Saturday and advances to the second round, Colton will be in contention for a third-line spot when he is ready to return.

Ross Colton Remains Out On Monday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (lower body) will not play in Game 5 against the Dallas Stars on Monday night. This will mark Colton's fourth consecutive absence after he sustained a lower-body injury in the series opener. Luckily for the Avalanche, they have Gabriel Landeskog back in the lineup. He is set to continue in a second-line role and on the top power-play unit in Monday's game. Landeskog has registered two points (one goal, one assist) and eight hits in two games since joining the fun in Game 3.

Ross Colton Unavailable Saturday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (lower body) will remain out of the lineup on Saturday against the Dallas Stars. The 28-year-old suffered a lower-body injury in the series opener and will miss a third consecutive game. Initially, the team replaced Colton with Miles Wood in the lineup, but Gabriel Landeskog has since entered the frame. The Avalanche captain ended a 1,032-day absence in Game 3 and will remain in the lineup on Saturday, moving up to the second line. Jonathan Drouin, who has registered two power-play assists in the series, will drop to the third line.

Ross Colton Uncertain For Game 2

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (lower body) is questionable for Monday's Game 2 against the Dallas Stars. He logged only 7:04 of ice time in Saturday's Game 1, missing most of the third period due to a lower-body injury. Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar told reporters Monday morning that Colton is feeling "not great." He didn't rule him out for the contest, but also wouldn't confirm whether Colton would be ready to play. Colton's spot in the lineup could be filled by Gabriel Landeskog (knee), who was activated from Long-Term Injured Reserve on Monday. Miles Wood and Jimmy Vesey are also options to replace Colton.

Ross Colton Tallies Three Points In Victory

Colorado Avalanche left wing Ross Colton tallied three points during their victory over the Minnesota Wild on Friday evening. In the second frame, Colton tallied his first point, with the secondary assist on Jack Drury's goal. Later in this period, Colton would find the back of the net for the first time. In the third, Colton would tally his second goal of the game on the power-play. This outing extended his point streak to two games. However, prior to this two-game stretch, the 28-year-old was riding a 14-game scoreless drought. During this stretch, Colton tallied just 22 shots on goal with a -6 rating. He added 38 hits and nine blocked shots over this span. Through 44 games, Colton has found the back of the net 15 times and 104 hits. He remains an option for deeper formats given that he does not see consistent playing time in the Colorado bottom six.

Ross Colton Rejoins Avalanche Lineup Saturday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (foot) is expected to return to the lineup on Saturday versus Detroit. He has been activated from Injured Reserve ahead of the game. A broken foot has kept him sidelined since the end of October. Before suffering the injury, Colton showcased impressive form, scoring eight goals and nine points in 10 games. He'll rejoin the lineup as a member of the second line, linking up with Casey Mittelstadt and Valeri Nichushkin. Colton should also see action with the second power-play unit. He's had five points (four goals, one assist) with the man advantage this season.

Ross Colton Out For 6-8 Weeks With A Broken Foot

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (foot) will be out for 6-8 weeks. He broke his foot while blocking a shot in Monday's 5-2 loss to Chicago. In Colton, the Avalanche will lose their top goal-scorer. Colton has lit the lamp eight times in 10 games this season, adding one assist. Nikolai Kovalenko will replace Colton on the top line in Wednesday's matchup against Tampa Bay. The Russian winger has been limited to four points (one goal, three assists) in 10 appearances. But his productivity has improved in recent outings -- Kovalenko has tallied one goal and two assists in the past three games -- and the move to the first line will be a big boost to his fantasy value.

Ross Colton To Miss Time With A Lower-Body Injury

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (lower body) is expected to be out for a while. Colton appeared to have injured his leg while blocking a shot in Monday's matchup against Chicago. After the game, the 28-year-old was seen in a walking boot, and Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar said that Colton will miss "some time." Colton has been on fire to start the season, scoring a team-high eight goals and totaling nine points in 10 games. He has been utilized on the top line and on the first power-play unit. Nikolai Kovalenko might now get another look next to Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen.

Ross Colton Available On Sunday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (hand) will play in Sunday's matchup against Ottawa. He made an early exit on Thursday versus Utah due to a hand injury, but luckily for the Avalanche, Colton won't be forced to sit out any games. The 28-year-old has been on a roll with seven goals and eight points in eight games. Colton is tied for the league lead with four power-play goals. He's in a good spot to keep his goal-scoring form going on Sunday, as the Senators have so far killed off only 75 percent of their penalties. They also allow 3.57 goals per game, the sixth most in the league.

Ross Colton Suffers Apparent Hand Injury Thursday

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton (upper body) did not finish Thursday's 5-1 victory over Utah. He exited the contest after getting slashed on the hand. Colton, who has been in impressive form early in the season, opened the scoring with a power-play goal on Thursday. It's his fourth power-play goal of the year already, and Colton has tallied seven markers in total -- only Tampa Bay's Nikita Kucherov has been more prolific with eight goals. In eight outings, Colton has also picked up one assist. The Avalanche are expected to provide more info on Colton's injury on Friday. The team heads out for the next game on Sunday night versus Ottawa.

Ross Colton Produces Another Two-Goal Effort

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton had a second consecutive multi-goal night on Sunday against San Jose, scoring the first two goals in a 4-1 win. He opened the scoring with a power-play marker. Colton is benefiting from skating on the top line and the first power play unit. He heads into the new week on a three-game goal streak. Having scored six times across the campaign, Colton is tied for the second-most goals in the league. He's also had one assist in six games with 22 shots on goal during a hot start. The 28-year-old will be out to set a new career high with a four-game goal streak when Colorado faces Seattle on Tuesday night.

Ross Colton Pots Two Goals In Friday's Win

Colorado Avalanche forward Ross Colton netted two goals to help the team secure its first victory of the season on Friday, beating Anaheim 4-3 in overtime. Colton doubled his goal tally for the year in the third period, netting his first marker on the power play. He finished with five shots in total and had one hit across 21:54 of action. Injuries have helped Colton to move up the lineup quickly, and he was part of the first line in Friday's game. The 28-year-old has scored in back-to-back games while collecting all of his five points this season in the past four games. There should be plenty more to come for Colton if he sticks with Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen.
