Nathan MacKinnon Wins Rocket Richard Trophy With 53 Goals

Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon (rest) has become the second player in franchise history to lead the NHL in goals. He produced 53 goals in 80 games, winning the Rocket Richard Trophy by a two-goal margin over Montreal's Cole Caufield. Milan Hejduk was previously Colorado's lone Rocket Richard Trophy winner, having netted 50 goals in 2002-03. MacKinnon sat out the Avalanche's regular-season finale on Thursday against Seattle, finishing the campaign with 127 points. He will now start a chase for his second Stanley Cup. While Colorado hasn't had much joy in the playoffs since its triumph in 2022, MacKinnon's performance levels have remained high. He has posted 14 goals and 32 points across 25 games in the last three postseasons.

MacKinnon didn't play in Wednesday's 4-2 road victory over Utah, taking a bit of extra rest after the Olympic tournament. The Avalanche leader sits third in scoring in the NHL, recording 40 goals and 53 assists in 55 appearances. He's had multiple points in 10 of his last 19 outings. MacKinnon's return will bump Brock Nelson to the second line, but he will continue to be heavily involved in the offense.

For the second time this season, MacKinnon has posted four points in back-to-back games. The recent scoring surge has put MacKinnon on track for a monster 152-point year.

He became only the second NHLer in the past 25 years to record at least four points on back-to-back days. The sensational performance took MacKinnon's points streak to nine games, which has catapulted him to the top of the league's scoring charts. MacKinnon has produced a league-high 14 goals and sits on 29 points in 16 appearances. Currently, the Avalanche superstar looks unstoppable, and his hot streak may continue for a while, as Colorado begins a four-game homestand on Tuesday.

Nathan MacKinnon Extends Point Streak to Seven Games

Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon stretched his point streak to seven games on Tuesday night, posting a power-play assist in a 3-2 victory over the Tampa Bay Lightning. This marks the 25th time in his career that MacKinnon has recorded a point streak of at least seven games, placing him second in franchise history behind only Joe Sakic (35). With a total of 20 points, MacKinnon currently shares the second spot on the league's scoring charts and is tied for first with 10 goals. He has gone without a point in only two of his 14 appearances this season and has already recorded six multi-point games. The Avalanche star will attempt to extend his point streak to eight games in a fascinating matchup against the league's leading scorer, Connor McDavid, and the Edmonton Oilers on Saturday night.

Nathan MacKinnon Becomes Avalanche's All-Time Top Scorer

Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon started the new campaign with a special achievement in Tuesday's 4-1 road victory over the Los Angeles Kings. He logged two even-strength assists in the contest, surpassing Joe Sakic for the most points in Avalanche history. MacKinnon has tallied 1,017 points (367 goals, 650 assists) in 871 career games with the Avalanche. With his pair of helpers in the second period, MacKinnon became the fifth player in history with at least six career multi-assist performances in season-opening contests. Before Tuesday night, MacKinnon already held the Avalanche's assists record, and he needs 25 markers to take the goals record off Sakic. We will likely see it happen this season, given that MacKinnon has scored at least 25 goals in seven of the last eight campaigns.

Nathan MacKinnon Collects Three Points In Crucial Win

Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon recorded three points as the team staved off elimination with a 7-4 victory against the Dallas Stars on Thursday night. Colorado's star forward was quiet for most of the night but sparked into life late in the game. He collected all his points inside the final 11 minutes of play, recording a goal and two assists. MacKinnon was credited with a Stars own goal at the 9:02 mark in the third period, which ended up being the game-winning tally. He then picked up his helpers with the Dallas net empty. This tied MacKinnon for the franchise record for most points in a playoff period. While MacKinnon was held in check by the Stars for most of Game 6, he has enjoyed a good series, picking up 10 points (six goals, four assists) in six games.

Nathan MacKinnon Has Two Points In Losing Effort

Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon posted a goal and an assist in Monday's Game 5 against the Dallas Stars but was unable to save his squad from a 6-2 loss. Colorado found itself in a three-goal hole in the second period before goals from MacKinnon and Arturri Lehkonen brought the team back into the game. However, there was no further offense from the Avalanche, who will face elimination in Wednesday's Game 6 after falling behind 3-2 in the series. Things have been difficult for Jared Bednar's men in the matchup, but MacKinnon has continued to deliver the goods. With five games played, he leads all skaters in the postseason with five goals and has recorded two assists with 31 shots on goal.

Nathan MacKinnon To Miss Season-Ending Road Trip

Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon (undisclosed) has officially been ruled out for the final two games of the regular season. He won't travel with the team for games on the road against the Los Angeles Kings and Anaheim Ducks.
