CALGARY — Nathan MacKinnon showed why he’s one of the NHL’s best players on Saturday. A force all night, MacKinnon scored 8:27 into overtime as the Colorado Avalanche tied their first-round series with the Calgary Flames at a game apiece with a 3-2 win. A little saucer pass,” said MacKinnon. His 26:26 in ice time was third behind teammates Tyson Barrie (28:13) and Flames captain Mark Giordano (28:55), both defenceman. Chants of “Smitty, Smitty, Smitty” were heard throughout the night from the crowd just like in the series opener.
