Mackinnon, Kucherov, McDavid in three-horse race for Art Ross Trophy

Awarded to the player who records the most points during the regular season, the Art Ross Trophy has been won by McDavid in five of the past seven seasons, including the most recent three.

His current total of 127 points is tied with Mackinnon for the league lead, one point better than McDavid. A veteran of 11 NHL seasons, Kucherov has nine games remaining to earn points, including games against the Montreal Canadiens, Pittsburgh Penguins, Columbus Blue Jackets and Ottawa Senators, who all find themselves near the bottom of the standings. The 28-year-old native of Halifax has already smashed that mark, potting 47 goals and 80 assists, both career bests, for 127 points in 75 games.

Aside for two games against the Minnesota Wild, five of Colorado's last seven games are against teams currently in a playoff position.
