Chuck Kobasew, who has miss the past six games with a back injury, is close to returning and will be on the this week's three-game road trip that begins Wednesday in Buffalo.
Expect Kobasew to miss a few more games. He has seven goals and 13 points in 54 games.
Kobasew gets back into the lineup for the first time since December 9th. Even in deeper leagues he has no fantasy hockey value with three goals and six points through 28 games.

Sacco said Kobasew is close to returning to the lineup
Kobasew last played on December 9th due to a suspected concussion. The scoring winger has three goals and six points through his first 28 games with the Avs.
But forward Chuck Kobasew is out with a head injury, the result of a hit taken in Saturday's loss at Edmonton.
Kobasew was playing on the fourth line so expect Brandon Yip or TJ Galiardi to move down to his slot. The former three-time 20-goal scorer has three goals and six points in 28 games.
Kobasew will miss tonight's game as the team plans on dressing seven defensemen. In his first year with the Avs, the former 20-goal scorer posted three goals and six points as he was shuffled up and down the lineup.
