With Jonathan Drouin sidelined with injury, Wagner returns from the AHL to serve as Colorado's 12th forward on Saturday. Wagner, who will be on the fourth line, had just two points (1G / 1A) in 13 NHL games a season ago.
Wagner has yet to appear in the playoffs for Colorado but will draw into the lineup for Nikolai Kovalenko and play on the third line. The 32-year-old had one goal and one assist in 13 games played with the Avalanche during the regular season while averaging just 7:27 TOI/GP.
This is Wagner's second call-up since the beginning of the playoffs but he has yet to crack the Avalanche roster this postseason. The 32-year-old appeared in 13 games for the Avalanche this season, scoring a goal, two points, 16 SOG, nine PIMs and a +3 plus/minus.
Wagner was placed on waivers on Tuesday in hopes that he clears and can help the Colorado Eagles (AHL) during their playoff push. The 32-year-old appeared in 13 games for the Avalanche this season, scoring a goal, two points, 16 SOG, nine PIMs and a +3 plus/minus.

Wagner has played four of the last five games for the Avalanche, averaging fewer than seven minutes of ice time, but has been sent down to the Eagles (AHL). The 32-year-old Wagner has two points (1G / 1A) in 13 games this season.
Wagner scored his first goal as a member of the Colorado Avalanche on Monday and earned himself a one-year contract extension the following day for the 2024-25 season. The 32-year-old veteran should compete for Colorado's fourth-line centre role next year but will hope to build off of his two points (1G/1A) in 10 games this season.
