Us Colorado Avalanche fans know the greatness of Nathan MacKinnon. Sometimes we get a little upset and frustrated when the rest of the hockey world doesn't recognize him as much as we do. But yesterday something happened for the first time in seven years.
TSN released their midseason Top 25 list, and for the first time since 2017, Connor McDavid is not at the top of that list. Nathan MacKinnon moved above him. We discuss why this is a pretty big deal.
We also dive into the February schedule. Which begins right off the bat with the Avs on a six game road trip. Including a confusing stretch where they play in Florida, leave Florida, then go back to Florida. Because the NHL.
Then we wrap up our mid-season grades for the forwards. Are we nice to Ryan Johansen?
