Recap: Avs spoil Kings opening night with Rantanen rout

The NHL season is back and it is beautiful.

The Colorado Avalanche showed off their beauty and star power with a prominent 5-2 win to spoil the Los Angeles Kings’ opening night festivities. It came off the back of Mikko Rantanen’s four points.

He and the entire first line in general took over the game early on, and it was all they needed in the end to pull out the win. They start the season off in the right way on this week-long road trip.
