MacKinnon loses his ride with Avs

Nathan MacKinnon may be looking for a couch to crash on the rest of the season after the Colorado Avalanche traded away his roommate and ride to the rink.

Talented teenager MacKinnon has been living in the basement of forward Maxime Talbot, who was packaged with Paul Carey and sent to the Boston Bruins at the trade deadline on Monday. In return, Colorado received forward Jordan Caron and a sixth-round pick in 2016.

First, MacKinnon breaks his nose. Now, his happy home has been broken up. Just the way things have been going for MacKinnon these days.
