A couple of quick personnel updates for the Avalanche, who play in Nashville tonight:

• Tyson Barrie is back. His upper-body ailment is no more, and he will play against the Predators. Jared Bednar said Chris Bigras will be a healthy scratch.
• Dominic Toninato will play his first NHL game tonight. He will center a line with Sven Andrighetto and Nail Yakupov. Toninato replaces Vladislav Kamenev in the lineup.
• Semyon Varlamov is in net.

The Avs are coming off a win and Nashville coming off a loss. So, this will be a tough one. It would have been a tough one no matter the outcomes of their last games.
