Andre Burakovsky comes through for Avs on Saturday

Andre Burakovsky potted a goal and an assist in Colorado's 5-4 OT victory over the Vancouver Canucks. He finished the game with two points, a plus-2 rating, and two shots.
Fantasy Impact:
Burakovsky was trailing in through the hash marks while Nathan Mackinnon was wheeling around from behind the net. Mackinnon found him through some bodies and got the pass through for him to bury. That brings him up to eight goals and 16 points through 20 games this year. His best season to date was 38 points back in 2015 with the Washington Capitals. If he were to maintain this pace he'd be looking at personal bests and then some. There's still no clear time table for Gabriel Landeskog and Mikko Rantanen to return and if he's playing shifts with Mackinnon, he's worthy of a roster spot for the time being. He carries LW/RW eligibility too, if that helps sweeten the deal.
