DENVER (AP) Nathan MacKinnon scored two more goals and Gabriel Landeskog had two assists, leading the Colorado Avalanche to a 3-1 victory over the Vancouver Canucks on Tuesday night.
Brock Nelson also scored as Colorado improved to 12-0-1 in its last 13 games. Mackenzie Blackwood made 11 saves after Scott Wedgewood departed in the second period with an upper-body injury.
Vancouver lost for the sixth time in seven games. Linus Karlsson scored for the Canucks, and Kevin Lankinen stopped 28 shots.
MacKinnon poked home a rebound with 37 seconds left in the first, tying it at 1. He converted a one-timer off a Landeskog pass late in the second, giving Colorado a 3-1 lead.
The 30-year-old MacKinnon has eight goals and five assists in his last seven games. He leads the NHL with 22 goals on the season.
The Canucks begin a four-game homestand on Friday night against Utah. The Avalanche open a four-game trip on Thursday night against the New York Islanders.
