Avs practice notebook: New line combos, plus Ian Cole speaks

Well, Tyson Jost as a top-six forward? That’s’ over. At least, on Wednesday, it was.

The Avalanche’s second line at practice today had Nazem Kadri at center (looking fit and fast, by the way, after missing Monday’s practice with a sore foot) with Joonas Donskoi on the left side and Andre Burakovsky on the right.

Jost was the third-line center, flanked by Matt Nieto on the left and Colin Wilson on the right. J.T. Compher was not at practice, however.
