Just a couple hours before puck drop is set to happen between the Colorado Avalanche and the Vegas Golden Knights, the Avalanche announced a roster transaction.
The reasoning behind the roster move is more then likely because of the injuries that the Colorado Avalanche have suffered recently.
The Avalanche are currently down four key players as Josh Manson, Sam Girard, Martin Necas, and Jonathan Drouin are all down with injuries, but are listed as day-to-day.
With that, following their morning practice today, head coach Jared Bednar ended up meeting with the media and confirmed the status of all four players.
Bednar revealed that all four players will not be available for the Avalanche's game tonight, and are still listed as day-to-day.
With that, the Avalanche completed a roster tranasaction just ahead of their game.

The Colorado Avalanche have recalled Chris Wagner.
Wagner has bounced back and forth this season between the Colorado Avalanche, and the Colorado Eagles, and has been solid when playing in both the AHL and the NHL.
Wagner has appeared in 24 games this season for the Colorado Avalanche and has just 1 goal, while averaging just 6:55 of ice time.
On the other hand, he has appeared in 42 games with the Colorado Eagles, and has some pretty impressive numbers with 19 goals, 12 assists for 31 points.
It's unclear if Wagner will be in the lineup for tonight's game, and we will only find out closer to puck drop. Stay tuned for further details!
