Nathan MacKinnon Exits Early With Lower-Body Injury Against Senators

Colorado Avalanche superstar center Nathan MacKinnon sustained a lower-body injury during the second period of Thursday's game against the Ottawa Senators and was ruled out prior to the third period. MacKinnon was held off the scoresheet for the third time in his past four games before his early exit. The injury leaves Colorado's roster severely depleted ahead of Saturday's upcoming matchup in Montreal.
