Cale Makar set an Avalanche record for most points in a game by a defenseman with six (two goals, four assists) in the win. Nathan MacKinnon had two goals and three assists. Martin Necas had a goal and an assist, and Mackenzie Blackwood made 32 saves.
Without a handful of veteran players, the San Jose Sharks were no match for the Colorado Avalanche, who scored four first-period goals and never looked back in a 7-3 win on Thursday at Ball Arena.
