Colorado Avalanche forward Nathan MacKinnon is among the favorites to take home the Hart Trophy as the NHL MVP along with Nikita Kucherov, Auston Matthews and Connor McDavid. The 28-year-old MacKinnon has a career-high 138 points this season, including 51 goals.

Colorado Avalanche center Nathan MacKinnon drives to the net against Minnesota Wild center Joel Eriksson Ek in the second period of an NHL hockey game Tuesday, April 9, 2024, in Denver.
The 28-year-old MacKinnon is closing in on Avalanche/Quebec Nordiques history, too, moving a point away from matching Peter Stastny for the most points in a campaign. MacKinnon also has three hat tricks this season. “The only way to get better is to do different things,” MacKinnon explained. “I’m always open to new ideas. The growth mindset is just never thinking you’re really there.”
Goaltender Alexandar Georgiev is grateful that MacKinnon’s on his side. He sees enough of him in practice.
