Andre Burakovsky scored two goals in a game for the third time this season. It was also his sixth multi-point performance of the campaign and third in a row (five goals, one assist)… Burakovsky is on a three-game goal streak, tied for the third longest of his career.
With his two-goal performance, the Avalanche has had a multi-goal effort from one of its players in six straight games, a first since the team moved to Colorado. The franchise mark is seven consecutive outings with a player recording at least two goals from Nov. 24-Dec. 10, 1983.
NOTEBOOK
Cale Makar had an assist and now has 13 points (four goals, nine assists) in the month of November, surpassing Pierre Lacroix's franchise record for scoring by a rookie defenseman in a single month (12, March 1980)… Makar's 13 points this month are the most by a first-year blueliner in November since 1991-92, when Nicklas Lidstrom had 17 and Vladimir Konstantinov 13 for the Red Wings... Makar now has 23 points (five goals, 18 assists) this season, which ranks second among all NHL defensemen, trailing only Washington's John Carlson (35 points)... Nathan MacKinnon recorded two helpers and now has points in seven consecutive games against the Flames dating back to last year's playoff series (three goals, eight assists)… MacKinnon has recorded a multi-point outing in three of his last four games and has nine points (four goals, five assists) through the first four games of Colorado's current five-game road trip... Vladislav Kamenev registered his first tally of the season. Of his three career goals, two have come against the Flames... Nikita Zadorov played a season-high 21:34... Calgary natives Cale Makar and Logan O'Connor were both playing at Scotiabank Saddledome for the second time in their careers. O'Connor skated in Calgary on Jan. 9, while Makar played Game 5 of last year's playoff series in Alberta on April 19… The Avs are now 2-0-0 in the three-game season series with the Flames. It was the first and only game this year in Calgary, and the clubs wrap up their yearly set on Dec. 9 in Denver… Colorado is 3-1-0 on its five-game road trip.
