DENVER (AP) — Nathan MacKinnon scored twice and the Colorado Avalanche continued their strong start with a 4-1 win over the Boston Bruins on Saturday night.

The Avalanche (5-0-1) have at least a point in all six games this season. It’s one of their longest point streaks to begin a season in franchise history. The team record is 11 (9-0-2) in 2000-01 when they went on to win a Stanley Cup title.

Josh Manson also scored and Martin Necas added an empty-net tally with 2:37 remaining. The power play continues to struggle as the Avalanche finished 0 for 5.

Scott Wedgewood stopped 13 shots to earn his league-leading fifth win. He turned in the stop of the night with 13:49 remaining when he made a glove save on a shot from John Beecher.
