Colorado Avalanche dominate with Nathan MacKinnon’s electrifying start—could the Hart Trophy be a lock and a second Cup run in sight? Nick Zararis and Hunter Hodies break down the Avalanche’s historic five-on-five numbers, leadership mentality, and the impact of roster upgrades including Brock Nelson and Martin Necas. They examine MacKinnon’s unmatched speed, the return of Gabriel Landeskog, and why Colorado’s process keeps them atop the Western Conference even as metrics normalize.The conversation shifts to the Edmonton Oilers’ struggles as Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl’s once-reliable pairing fails to spark the offense. Can the Oilers’ shallow depth and poor goaltending be fixed, or is a playoff push unlikely this season? Nick Zararis and Hunter Hodies also spotlight which bubble teams—like the Florida Panthers and Columbus Blue Jackets—have the best shot to rebound and claim playoff spots.
