High-scoring Avalanche await winner of Stars-Golden Knights in next round after dispatching Jets

Colorado Avalanche ’s Mikko Rantanen celebrates his goal with Valeri Nichushkin and Nathan MacKinnon during the third period in Game 5 of an NHL hockey Stanley Cup first-round playoff series against the Winnipeg Jets in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Tuesday, April 30, 2024.

MacKinnon is the top offensive threat every team tries to neutralize. Still, the speedy forward finished with two goals and seven assists against the Jets. “Everyone in that room is going to give everything they have and that’s the standard,” said MacKinnon, whose team scored 24 goals on Vezina Trophy finalist Connor Hellebuyck. “Whether you score or don’t, some of that stuff is out of your control, but you can control your effort and how hard you work. ... Whether we win or lose, we just want to go out swinging. We had a great series in that sense.”

“Everybody was so supportive,” Georgiev said. “I felt a lot of love from the room. It definitely help me. I tried to have fun and enjoy the atmosphere. It was awesome again. I thought everyone helped out defensively so much.”
