The Colorado Avalanche defeated the Ottawa Senators 5-4 on Sunday night, extending their winning streak to five games. Logan O'Connor and Ross Colton scored 1:32 apart in the third period to give the Avalanche a 4-2 lead. The Senators rallied with two goals of their own, but Nathan MacKinnon scored an empty-net goal with 15 seconds remaining to seal the victory.

Nikolai Kovalenko scored his first NHL goal for the Avalanche, who have bounced back from an 0-4-0 start to the season. Josh Manson also scored for the Avalanche, who have won five straight games.

The Senators have been able to score goals but not win. They nearly rallied from three down Friday night in Dallas and couldn't finish a comeback Sunday night.

Avalanche goalie Justus Annunen has been in net for Colorado's last four wins and has seemingly taken over the No. 1 spot from struggling Alexandar Georgiev. Annunen made 26 saves in the win.

The Senators played musical goaltenders early in the second period. Forsberg went to the bench with an equipment problem that wasn't quickly resolved, so Linus Ullmark came in. Forsberg returned at the next stoppage but left less than two minutes later. He returned midway through the period.

MacKinnon has a point in all nine games to start the season for the second time in his career. He also did it in the 2017-18 season.
