Colorado Avalanche forward Logan O'Connor stepped away from the team Thursday for personal reasons following the sudden passing of his father, Myles.
The news was announced hours before Colorado's game against the Calgary Flames. O'Connor, a Calgary native, left the team to be with his family.

The Avalanche had expected O'Connor to rejoin the lineup against the Flames. Head coach Jared Bednar outlined that plan before the team departed Denver for a back-to-back trip through Canada.
The Avalanche have not provided a timeline for O'Connor's return.
