Kiviranta scored a goal, added three hits and went plus-2 in Sunday's 4-1 win over the Sharks.

Kiviranta's third-period goal was his first point in six games this season. The 28-year-old winger has remained in a bottom-six role even as injuries have quickly piled up among the Avalanche's forwards. He's added 11 hits, three shots on net and an even plus-minus rating. Physical play is Kiviranta's biggest area, but he's not even much of a factor there with a career high of 117 hits back in 2022-23 with Dallas. Fantasy managers won't need to track his progress this season.
