Byram scored two goals, one the game-winner and the other on the power play, in Saturday's 4-1 victory over St. Louis. - The goals were Byram's first since returning after the All-Star break from a lower-body injury that had sidelined him since early November. The 21-year-old's fantasy ceiling remains limited by the presence of Cale Makar, who made his own return from a concussion Saturday, but Byram was the fourth overall pick in the 2019 NHL Entry Draft for a reason. In 16 games this season, Byram has four goals and 10 points. |

Byram had an assist, three shots on goal, one hit and three blocked shots over 23:13 of ice time in Saturday's 5-3 win over the Panthers. - Byram, in his third game back from a lengthy spell on injured reserve, was given his most TOI since rejoining the active lineup. That's understandable as Colorado was without Cale Makar (head) for a second consecutive game. He has a pair of helpers since returning, and his offensive aptitude could help fill the void should Makar's injury force him to miss more time. |

The 21-year-old blueliner is already up to four points, a plus-5 rating, eight shots, eight hits and six blocks through five contests. Talent has never been the question here -- as long as he's healthy and playing in a top-four role, Byram should be a solid player on the ice and in fantasy. |

The 20-year-old played just 19 games last season partially because of a concussion, so there's history. "He'll get re-evaluated in the morning," Bednar told Adrian Dater of Colorado Hockey Now. "He left the game after the hit. We'll see what the symptoms are." Byram has been one of the most consistent players over 11 games for the Avalanche, which has endured several injuries and an up-and-down start to the season. |

Byram (upper body) will not return to Thursday's game versus the Canucks, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports. - Byram went hard into the boards after a collision with Bo Horvat late in the first period. The 20-year-old Byram has struggled with injuries early in his career, which makes this a discouraging situation for the defenseman. More information about his injury should surface prior to Saturday's game against the Sharks. |

Byram scored twice on six shots, added an assist and blocked three shots in Wednesday's 5-4 overtime loss to the Blue Jackets. - With Cale Makar (upper body) on injured reserve, Byram led the Avalanche's defensemen with 24:45 of ice time. He made the most of the extra responsibility, tallying in the second period and scoring the game-tying goal in the third to force overtime. He also had a shot that J.T. Compher tipped in for the Avalanche's third goal. Byram is up to three goals, eight points, 17 shots on net, 13 hits, nine blocks and a plus-5 rating in nine contests. The fourth overall pick from 2019, Byram should serve as the team's top blueliner for the length of Makar's absence, so he'll be worth an add in standard fantasy formats. |
