The Colorado Avalanche is the streak buster of the Chicago Blackhawks.
Three seasons ago during the shortened 2012-13 campaign, the Avs ended the Blackhawks' NHL-record season-opening point streak at 24 games. That 21-0-3 run concluded March 8, 2013 at Pepsi Center in an Avalanche 6-2 victory.
On Tuesday night at United Center, Colorado put a period on Chicago forward Patrick Kane's individual point streak of 26 games with a 3-0 shutout win.
Kane's streak was a Blackhawks-franchise record and the most by an American-born player. The 26-gamer was also the longest by an active player and the longest by any player since Mats Sundin of the Quebec Nordiques posted a 30-game point streak from Oct.
