He has earned four points and a plus-2 rating over his last three outings in one of his better stretches of the campaign.

Girard logged two assists and two blocked shots in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Predators. Girard has earned three helpers over his last two games after going 10 contests without a point. His offense may continue to fluctuate, as the Avalanche's good health on the blue line has Girard in a third-pairing role. The 27-year-old has collected five helpers, 12 shots on net, 21 blocked shots, eight hits and a plus-5 rating across 17 appearances this season.

Girard logged an assist and three blocked shots in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Panthers. Girard ended a 10-game point drought in a game that saw 13 of the Avalanche's skaters get on the scoresheet. He set up Nathan MacKinnon's tally in the second period. Girard's lack of offense and the overall health of the blue line has led to the 27-year-old slipping into a third-pairing role with minimal power-play time. He's produced three helpers, 11 shots on net, 19 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating over 16 appearances this season.

Girard logged an assist in Thursday's 6-3 win over the Sabres. Girard missed 15 games due to an upper-body injury. He returned to a third-pairing role Thursday, logging 16:54 of ice time. The helper was his first point of the year to go with three shots on net, four blocked shots, three hits and a plus-2 rating over three outings. Girard's return should help bolster the bottom of the Avalanche's defense, which will make it tougher for Ilya Solovyov to get into the lineup.

Girard (upper body) will be in action against Buffalo on Thursday, Aarif Deen of Colorado Hockey Now reports. Girard will return following a 15-game stint on injured reserve due to his upper-body issue. In 73 regular-season games last year, the 27-year-old blueliner notched 24 points but could struggle to produce at that level this time around due to his lengthy injury absence. With Girard back in the lineup, Ilya Solovyov figures to be relegated to the press box as a healthy scratch.
