Avs stars MacKinnon, Makar out multiple weeks with lower-body injuries
The Colorado Avalanche will be without stars Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar for multiple weeks due to injury, coach Jared Bednar said Saturday.
MacKinnon is out at least a month, while Makar will be out approximately two weeks. Both players suffered lower-body injuries in the team's Thursday night game against the Ottawa Senators.
MacKinnon, who leads the team in both points (30) and assists (20), left with just over eight minutes remaining the loss to Ottawa after a check from Artem Zub in the hip area and was seen grabbing his right side.
