Avalanche's Parker Kelly: Nets goal in loss
Rotowire
Kelly scored a goal in a 4-2 loss to Tampa Bay on Tuesday.
It was Kelly's first goal in eight games. He has eight goals, six assists and 56 shots in 42 games, and he's just five points from equaling his career mark in points set last season. Kelly's eight goals equal his career high. He's a perfect depth piece on Colorado's fourth line, but he offers little to no fantasy value given the league depth at center.

Kelly ended an eight-game goal drought, during which he had just one assist, when he scored at 14:02 of the second period. His goal ended up being the game-winner, his second such tally out of eight overall this season. The 25-year-old also set a career high in points (19) while adding 92 shots on net, 149 hits, 66 blocked shots and a minus-3 rating over 75 appearances. He's been reliable on the ice as a fourth-liner for much of the campaign, but he's not a strong option in most fantasy formats.

The 25-year-old forward had gone 20 games without scoring, adding just four assists in that span, and he was scratched Monday versus the Blackhawks.

Rotowire
Kelly logged an assist, two hits and two blocked shots in Wednesday's 5-1 win over the Devils.
Kelly has three helpers over his last five games. The 25-year-old was stuck in a deep slump prior to that, going 10 contests without a point.

He's done marginally well in 2024-25 with 14 points, 68 shots on net, 113 hits, 51 blocked shots and a minus-8 rating across 60 appearances.
