Nathan MacKinnon Grabs First Finals Goal
3 years agoColorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon notched his first goal in the Stanley Cup Final on Wednesday, putting the team on the board with a power-play goal 5:17 into the second period. He deflected in a Mikko Rantanen pass with his skate. MacKinnon registered a game-high eight shots on goal in total in the contest, and he was bound to score at some point after having already logged 14 shots on net in the first three games of the series. The star centerman became the third player in franchise history to hit 40 playoff goals and he's also had 50 assists in 90 appearances. Only five players in NHL history have averaged more points in the postseason than MacKinnon.
