Healthy scratch Saturday Manson will be a healthy scratch Saturday, Kyle Fredrickson of The Denver Gazette reports.
Impact The Avalanche do not want Manson playing in back-to-back games after he missed 31 games with a lower-body injury. Manson will return to the lineup Sunday against Edmonton. Manson picked up an assist with four hits and five blocks in his return to action Wednesday, giving him two goals and seven points in 22 games.

Snares point in return Manson had an assist, two shots on goal, four hits and five blocked shots over 20:35 of ice time in Wednesday's 3-2 win over Minnesota.
Impact Manson suited up for the first time since Dec. 1, a span of 31 games, after recovering from a lower-body injury, and earned his second-most TOI this season. He'll be asked to take on a larger load with both Cale Makar (head) and Erik Johnson (lower body) on the shelf, although Manson's fantasy contributions align more with Johnson than the offensively gifted Makar. The 31-year-old defenseman has seven points (two goals, five assists), 40 PIM, 50 hits and 28 blocked shots over 22 games.

Will likely return Wednesday Manson (lower body) is off the injured reserve list, per the NHL media site.
Impact Manson will likely play Wednesday against Minnesota as a result. He has two goals, six points, 40 PIM, 46 hits and 23 blocks in 21 games this season. The 31-year-old was last in the lineup Dec. 1.

Still possible for Wednesday Manson (lower body) may play Wednesday versus the Wild, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
Impact Getting a player back would be good for the Avalanche's defense, which has been tested by injuries lately. Manson hasn't played since Dec. 1, but he'd likely be able to fill a bottom-four role. If he's activated from injured reserve prior to Wednesday's contest, that would be a good indication that he'll play.

Not expected back Tuesday Manson (lower body) is expected to remain on the shelf for Tuesday's clash with Tampa Bay, Peter Baugh of The Athletic reports.
Impact In addition to Manson, the Avs will be without Erik Johnson (lower body) and Cale Makar (head) on the blue line. As a result, the team will need to make some call-ups in order to fill out their defense. It will be Manson's 31st consecutive absence due to his lingering lower-body issue. While not officially ruled out, it seems unlikely Manson will be ready to play in the second game of the back-to-back against Minnesota on Wednesday.
