Landeskog & the Avalanche Win 4-1 Over the Ducks for Fourth Straight Victory

The Colorado Avalanche defeated the Anaheim Ducks 4-1 on Tuesday night (Nov. 11), earning their fourth consecutive victory. With this win, the Avalanche improved their season record to 11-1-5, while halting the Ducks’ winning streak at seven games.

Strong Start for Colorado

Just 28 seconds into the game, the Avalanche struck first. After an aggressive forecheck led by Cale Makar forced a turnover, Nathan MacKinnon fed the puck to Artturi Lehkonen, who fired it past Lukas Dostal for his seventh goal of the season.

“Lehkonen’s seventh of the season came off a perfect feed from MacKinnon, who extended his point streak to 10 games.”

That assist also made MacKinnon the first player of the season to reach the 30-point milestone, continuing his dominant offensive run.

Ducks Tie It Up Before the Break

With less than two minutes remaining in the first period and both teams skating 4-on-4 after matching roughing penalties, Anaheim answered back. Leo Carlsson, assisted by Jacob Trouba, slipped the puck past Scott Wedgewood to notch his 11th goal of the season.

“Carlsson’s goal pushed his point streak to 11 games, sustaining his strong start to the season.”

Second Period Intensity

The middle frame featured only one goal, but it proved decisive. Colorado’s disciplined defense and efficient puck movement kept Anaheim on the back foot throughout the period, allowing the Avalanche to maintain control of the game’s tempo.

Summary

The Avalanche showcased balanced scoring, tight defense, and elite playmaking from MacKinnon and Makar, signaling their continued dominance early in the season.

Author’s Summary: Colorado extended their winning streak to four with a commanding 4-1 performance over Anaheim, driven by MacKinnon’s playmaking and disciplined team execution.
