Colorado Avalanche Look at New Line Combinations
When the Colorado Avalanche host the Winnipeg Jets on Friday night, they’ll be sporting some new line combinations. Find out how these lines might do.
Spoiler alert: The Colorado Avalanche still consider veteran Jarome Iginla a top-six forward.
In fact, Iginla is skating with the captain, Gabriel Landeskog, and the Avs highest scorer, Matt Duchene. Previously, he played with Landeskog and top center Nathan MacKinnon.
So, here’s one of the top-two lines:
Landeskog-Duchene-Iginla
This is an interesting combination because Landeskog and Iginla are both considered power forwards, while Duchene is pure speed. You kind of imagine Duchene speeding around the two bigger players.
