MacKinnon scored two goals, put four shots on net and dished out two hits in Sunday's 5-1 win over the Wild.
EDGE Analysis
MacKinnon first lit the lamp on a power play in the opening period before grabbing his second goal of the contest on Minnesota's empty net. The pair of tallies elevated the 30-year-old center's total to 30 goals this season to go along with 61 points, 161 shots on net, 28 hits and 21 blocked shots through 35 outings. He used Sunday's contest to elevate his lead over Boston's Morgan Geekie in the Rocket Richard Trophy race by five goals. While Edmonton's Connor McDavid surpassed MacKinnon in points Sunday, the latter likely remains ahead in the Hart Trophy conversation with the Avalanche leading the league at 26-2-7. MacKinnon is on pace for an unreal total of 70 goals and 142 points, and while that level of goal-scoring would be tough to maintain, the second 140-plus point season of his career wouldn't be a shocking outcome if he stays healthy.

MacKinnon scored twice on five shots, added a power-play assist, logged two hits and went plus-3 in Tuesday's 5-3 win over the Kraken.
EDGE Analysis
MacKinnon led the charge in a third-period comeback, scoring a game-tying goal and the empty-netter to seal the win. The 30-year-old is on a six-game point streak (six goals, six helpers), and he's earned multiple points in five of those contests. For the season, the superstar center has 28 goals, 30 helpers, 155 shots on net, 26 hits, 12 PIM and a plus-43 rating over 33 appearances.

MacKinnon scored a goal on three shots, dished an assist, added two hits and went plus-3 in Saturday's 4-2 win over the Predators.
EDGE Analysis
By his standards this year, this was a fairly pedestrian performance for MacKinnon. He opened the scoring at 1:26 of the first period and set up Valeri Nichushkin's empty-netter in the third. MacKinnon has four goals and five assists over his last five games, a span that includes four multi-point efforts. His three shots Saturday were his fewest in a game since he had one Nov. 22 versus the Predators. The superstar center has 26 goals, 55 points, 150 shots, 24 hits and a plus-40 rating through 32 appearances.

MacKinnon scored a goal on seven shots, added an assist and went plus-2 in Thursday's 6-2 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
MacKinnon's goal was the 392nd of his career. They've all come with Colorado, and he now has the most goals since the franchise relocated from Quebec, passing Joe Sakic's Avalanche total. MacKinnon is on quite the role with multiple points in seven of his last nine outings, earning eight goals and eight assists in that span. For the season, the 30-year-old superstar leads the league with 25 goals, 53 points, 147 shots on net and a plus-37 rating over 31 appearances.

EDGE Analysis
MacKinnon picked up his sixth multi-point effort in the last eight games. He has seven goals and seven assists during that span, which has seen him get held off the scoresheet just once. Overall, the superstar center is up to 24 goals, 27 assists, 140 shots on net and a plus-35 rating through 30 contests. He is the first player to reach the 50-point mark in the league this season, and he's seven points ahead of Connor McDavid in second place.

MacKinnon scored twice in a 3-2 overtime win over the Rangers on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
MacKinnon's second goal of the game was the winner in overtime -- he went wide to the boards and cut aggressively back through the Rangers' defense before deking to his backhand and roofing it past Igor Shesterkin. It was MacKinnon's league-leading 24th goal. He has 10 goals and 15 points in his last nine games, and he leads the NHL with 48 points through 28 contests.

MacKinnon scored two goals on six shots in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Canucks.
EDGE Analysis
MacKinnon battled an illness Monday but was healthy enough to play in this contest. The 30-year-old only went on to log 22:15 of ice time, most among Colorado forwards, while scoring in the final minute of both the first and second periods. If he wasn't quite 100 percent, he didn't show it. MacKinnon has five goals and four assists during a four-game multi-point streak, during which he's added 20 shots on net and a plus-9 rating. On the year, the superstar has 22 goals, 46 points, 114 shots and a plus-32 rating across 26 contests.

MacKinnon (illness) will be in the lineup versus the Canucks on Tuesday, Aarif Deen of Colorado Hockey Now reports.
EDGE Analysis
MacKinnon registered at least a point in 11 of 13 games in November, including seven multi-point efforts. The world-class center leads the NHL in goals (20) and points (44) to start the season and should be in the mix for both the Rocket and Hart trophies at the end of the year.

MacKinnon is under the weather and won't practice Monday.
EDGE Analysis
The Avalanche are already dealing with a threadbare forward group, so losing MacKinnon, along with Parker Kelly and Gabriel Landeskog, would really set them back versus Vancouver on Tuesday. For now, MacKinnon and company should be considered questionable to face the Canucks. The 30-year-old center is riding a three-game point streak, during which he has racked up three goals and four assists, giving him 13 multi-point outings in 25 games this year.

MacKinnon scored a goal and added two assists, one on the power play, in Saturday's 7-2 rout of the Canadiens.
EDGE Analysis
The Avs superstar had a hand in each of the team's final three goals on the afternoon, helping to set up tallies by Devon Toews and Gabriel Landeskog in the third period after potting his own in the final minute of the second. MacKinnon has produced multi-point performances in three straight games as he pads his lead in the NHL scoring race, and through 25 contests, he's amassed 20 goals and 44 points.
