Colorado Avalanche fans are bracing for the worst as their star forward Nathan MacKinnon is set to miss significant time with a limited role in the playoffs. In a surprising move, Avalanche head coach Jared Bednar announced that MacKinnon will be playing with a limited shift count and reduced ice time as the team trails the series 3-0. The decision raises questions about the team's chances of making a comeback and whether MacKinnon's health will be the primary concern for the remainder of the series. With MacKinnon's limited participation, the Avalanche will be relying on their depth players to step up and contribute to a potential series revival.
