ST. PAUL, Minn. — Swiss forward Sven Andrighetto is back in the Avalanche lineup after being banished from it Thursday in a 3-0 win against the visiting Dallas Stars.

Andrighetto, who has played in 38 of 39 games for Colorado since being acquired late last season, will play left wing on the Alex Kerfoot-centered line in Friday afternoon’s game against the Minnesota Wild at the Xcel Energy Center.

“I like the way he handled our meeting the other day, and he had two really good days of practice,” Avs coach Jared Bednar said of Andrighetto on Friday.
