The Avalanche lost 4-3 to the Edmonton Oilers at Ball Arena on Thursday. Nathan MacKinnon scored his 16th and 17th goals of the season, Logan O'Connor posted his sixth tally of the year, while Mikko Rantanen, Joel Kiviranta, Calvin de Haan, Jonathan Drouin and Devon Toews each record an assist.

Artemi Panarin scored two goals, Chris Kreider had the go-ahead goal off a defensive deflection with 9:38 to play, and the New York Rangers rallied for a 5-3 victory over the Utah Hockey Club.

Nathan MacKinnon is good for at least a handful of highlight-reel goals each season. His second tally in Thursday’s first period at Ball Arena was exactly that.

The Colorado Avalanche (27-17-1) continue their homestand against the Edmonton Oilers (28-13-3). Puck drop is scheduled for 7:45 p.m. MT but could be pushed back to 7:50 p.m. since it’s the second part of a double-header on ESPN.

Some reports have Avalanche star winger Mikko Rantanen being traded this season. But Adam Proteau says it's far more likely that Rantanen stays with the Avs for quite some time.

When you think of New York Rangers forwards Sam Carrick, Adam Edstrom and Matt Rempe, goal-scoring probably isn’t the first thing that comes to mind. But the Rangers’ fourth line has scored four goals in the past three games, helping fuel a 2-0-1 stretch.
