The NHL playoffs have proven to be much to 18 year old Nathan MacKinnon's liking so far. Here's a couple of interesting notes about the quick Colorado pivot courtesy of the NHL:
Per @EliasSports: MacKinnon is third 18-yr old in NHL history to record a 4pt game in the postseason ( P. Turgeon - 1988, T. Linden - 1989).

Per @EliasSports: MacKinnon’s 7pts ties the NHL record for most pts in first 2 playoff games of an NHL career: Odie Cleghorn, Barry Pederson

What is even more amazing is MacKinnon will not turn 19 until September! In fact, had he been born two weeks later, he would not have been eligible for the NHL Draft until the summer of 2014!I wonder how many hockey poolies took Nathan MacKinnon?
