Nathan MacKinnon scored his 11th goal of the season for the Colorado Avalanche, but unfortunately, that’s all they had to show for on Thursday night at Ball Arena.
Dylan Guenther had two goals and an assist and the Utah Hockey Club beat the Avs 4-1 to snap a three-game winning streak for the home team. Vladislav Kolyachonok and Kevin Stenlund also posted goals for UHC, as they remain unbeaten in their last four games. Karel Vejmelka stopped 22 of 23 shots.
Scott Wedgewood had 19 saves in his first home start with Colorado since being acquired in a trade with Nashville in exchange for Justus Annunen on November 30.
