Sportsman of the Week Ending 6/26/2022
What a week for hockey with exciting Stanley Cup Finals games resulting in a new Champion winning it for the franchise since 2001. The Colorado Avalanche followed up their second straight Western Conference top seed with a (pardon the overuse) Avalanche through the playoffs. They finished the grueling postseason at 16-4, with two sweeps and two 6 game series wins, never facing elimination or even losing two in a row. The Finals they were led by their first line center, Nathan MacKinnon in a thrilling victory against the two-time defending champion Tampa Bay Lightning. The former number one overall draft pick finished the week with 2 goals and 2 assists, but both his goals came in one goal wins, when it counted. MacKinnon logged over 22 minutes per game all four, with the steady hand to lead his team to raising the Cup. Congratulations to our Longhorndave Sportsman of the Week!
