Mikko Rantanen sets up at the back post and guides home MacKinnon's dish to finish off the HAT TRICK! How about a hat trick for Rantanen?! His third goal tonight and 52nd on the season put the Avs up 4-1 as they’re running away from the Sharks. Mikko cleaning up for 51 on the season 🚨 #GoAvsGo /UOTiHb8b4v 51 for good measure to give the Avalanche a 2-1 lead in the second period. Let’s hope it’s not another 20 years until someone can do it again.ĥ0 wasn’t enough! Rantanen added No. Regardless of the outcome, the night will be remembered for Rantanen’s historic achievement. The Avs are right there in the race for the Central Division, so these are a big two points they’re looking to capture. Trailing the Sharks 1-0, it was a hard-working tally that got the game all tied up.

That’s a career-high for MacKinnon.Īnd it was fitting the two worked together to get goal No. His 95 points trail only superstar Nathan MacKinnon, who has 101. Rantanen’s been awesome for the Avalanche this year, keeping them afloat as they’ve battled a ridiculous number of injuries. THE MOOSE IS LOOSE!!! #GoAvsGo /zJ圜ySp881
