The Colorado Avalanche's top line of Gabriel Landeskog, Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen makes up the NHL's top three leading scorers since March 1, and their offensive success continued on Monday.
Rantanen scored twice, MacKinnon had a goal and an assist and Landeskog contributed a helper as the Avs earned a 4-2 win against the Arizona Coyotes at Ball Arena.
"Key for us was our top guys got the job done. I thought the MacKinnon line was exceptional, (Cale) Makar was really good, [Philipp Grubauer] was probably our best player," said head coach Jared Bednar. "Those guys getting the job done, and special teams were good; I liked our penalty kill a lot and power play moved the puck around pretty good… Sticking with it and grinding through what wasn't an easy night for us I don't think. I don't think we had a ton of energy throughout our lineup, but like I said, the top guys were real good and got us the win."
