Colorado Avalanche forward Victor Olofsson just shut down any doubt regarding his role on the team by notching his first career hat trick on Tuesday night against the New Jersey Devils.
The Avalanche pulled off the ultimate revenge game, tagging Devils’ starting netminder Jacob Markstrom for eight goals. Three of those tallies came off the stick of Victor Olofsson.
The 30-year-old got the monkey off his back, scoring his first goals as a member of the Colorado Avalanche. He got a power play goal in the third period to open up a three-goal lead for the Avalanche.
