What’s the sweetest number you’ll take away from late Tuesday night, Nathan MacKinnon?
The 400 points?
The 40 goals?
Man didn’t blink.
“Two points,” the Avalanche center replied.
Which one’s the keeper? The one you’ll tell your grandkids about, once it’s all said and done?
The six unanswered goals on Edmonton?
The flurry of four in the second?
Nary a blink.
“Two points,” he said again.
It’s so close, they can darn near taste it now. The last seat at the table for the Western side of the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
