DENVER — Nathan MacKinnon's fast. Every defenseman and goaltender around the league knows about his elite speed all too well. Knowing that, though, doesn't make containing the hard-charging, fast-flying Colorado Avalanche forward any easier. MacKinnon's swiftness on the ice has led to an accelerated pace through the record books. His next goal or assist will join him with Hall of Famers Joe Sakic and Peter Stastny as the only skaters in franchise history to reach 1,000 points. The reigning NHL MVP also became the first player in the league this season to reach 100 points.
