The Avalanche outshot the Sharks 24-2 to start the game, and Cale Makar returned to form with a four-point night.

The circumstances made it arguably the most blatant should-win game of the season for the Avs — exactly what they needed to snap a three-game winless streak and get back to circling their prey in the playoff hunt. Meanwhile, the Avalanche triumvirate did something it had never done before. Cale Makar, Nathan MacKinnon and Mikko Rantanen all scored in the same period for the first time, supplying the 3-0 intermission lead that became 5-0 three minutes into the second period.
