ST. PAUL, Minn. — There won’t be any lineup changes for coach Patrick Roy’s Colorado Avalanche for Game 3 against Minnesota, but there’s substantial movement for the team trailing the series 2-0.

The Wild, and , will (Darcy Kuemper) and two forwards who were scratched in Game 1 and Game 2 (Dany Heatley, Justin Fontaine).

Colorado is 12-0 when winning the first two games of the Stanley Cup playoff series, and things looks even brighter when considering standout center at the Xcel Energy Center and third-line center John Mitchell is also with the team and participating in off-ice training.

Duchene is recovering from a knee injury and Mitchell from a concussion. There’s an outside chance Duchene will play in this series if it goes to six or seven games.
