The Avalanche have assigned Nikita Zadorov to San Antonio (AHL).

Zadorov served as a healthy scratch in three of the last four games. He was a minus-3 in just 10:36 on Thursday and and is a minus-5 on the season. Zadorov was a key piece in the Ryan O’Reilly trade, but is viewed as a bit of a project. He has an extremely projectable frame and a nasty side to his game, but he hasn’t fully developed into an everyday NHL defenseman yet. The AHL will allow him more ice time and freedom to grow.

Pastrnak suffered a foot injury while blocking a shot in Friday’s game in Florida. he played on Saturday, but only played 7:41 TOI, so he clearly wasn’t 100 percent. He will get a few days off to allow his foot to heal, so the Bruins recalled Alex Khokhlachev, who replace Pastrnak.
