Werner posted a record of 18-10-1 and earned two shutouts with the Eagles during the 2019-20 season. In addition, the 23-year-old has also gone 1-1-0 in two NHL games with the Avalanche, including a 40-save combined shutout of the Winnipeg Jets in his NHL debut on November 12, 2019.

 

Dickinson heads to the Grizzlies having notched one assist in five games this season with the Eagles.

 

Colorado will return to action when the Eagles host the Henderson Silver Knights on Friday, March 5th at 7:05pm MT. Fans can catch every game this season live on “The Home of the Colorado Eagles,” 92.9 The Bear or on AHLTV.
