The Avalanche will be without a pair of veterans when the club faces Nashville tomorrow, as defenseman Adam Foote and forward Ian Laperriere will not make the trip to Tennessee.
Foote suffered a tricep injury during Sunday’s loss to the Minnesota Wild. The blueliner played briefly in the second period before leaving the game. He did not take part in practice Monday and is out indefinitely.
The Avalanche also played the third period of last night’s game without the services of Laperriere. The winger, who has been playing center of late, skated for just 9:03 before leaving the contest with a back injury.
“Adam has a tricep injury and he’s going to be reevaluated in the next few days,” said Avalanche head coach Tony Granato. “Ian should be day-to-day. He’s got a stiff back but won’t make the trip.”

Yea out indefinitely until after the Blue Jacket game. He is just afraid to show his quitting face in C-Bus. As predicted he has come down with a sudden injury, he is just QUITTING for about nine days after getting a taste of whats waiting for him in Columbus. In C-Bus Tollefsen will be back in the line up and he has flat out said that he would love to punch the QUITTER in the mouth for QUITTING on them last season.
