Nothing can stop the Colorado Avalanche at this point as they scoop up another victory as they defeated the San Jose Sharks 5-3 for their eighth straight, equaling the longest franchise winning streak since 2005-2006. The Avalanche also end the evening holding a wild card spot as they keep fighting a tough western conference for playoff position.
The Avalanche got out to a hot start in the first period with goals from Nathan MacKinnon just one minute apart at 7:03 and 8:01. The fist goal was an incredible individual effort to shoot through Marc-Edouard Vlasic's legs and fool goaltender Martin Jones.
