These are two of the prettiest goals you'll see. Watch #46 in white. Yikes.
All four goals were created by the 18-year-old MacKinnon. In basically every game, Duchene has always been the fastest player on the ice. Well, I think MacKinnon is faster.
Here he creates a 2 on 1.
Four goals for the Avs. All from the same line. MacKinnon, Stastny, Landeskog.

There was a dicey moment at the end. First the refs miss a high-sticking penalty against the wild. It drew blood so should have been called a double minor.
Then Parenteau gets the empty netter to make it 4-1, but they say he was offsides. He wasn't.
Then the Wild score in the next 10 seconds to make it 3-2. Luckily that was as far as it went.

So now Stastny and MacKinnon both have 7 points in 2 games, leading all playoff performers. Next closest is Seabrook with 4.
So no second-guessing the draft pick, huh? Sure you don't want Popeye Jones' kid? I think the Predators might trade him for MacKinnon.
