After taking a high stick to the face, Darcy Kuemper left Game 3 against the Nashville Predators late in the first period. Kuemper did not return and should be considered day-to-day, although there is optimism he will be able to play in Game 4.
COL coach Jared Bednar said Darcy Kuemper has "some swelling" around the eye, but it is not too serious. It is possible the goalie plays Monday in Game 4.
