The NHL's hockey operations department is not going to make a change to the official scoring from the #Avs second goal last night, @DPostSports has learned. Nathan MacKinnon's home point streak is officially over now, for sure.
What a run it was for Nathan MacKinnon, a home point streak we might never see again. Recognizing what came to an end in a strange way on Thursday night. Plus/Minus https://t.co/bjjZgglUpr

Nathan MacKinnon's 35-game home point streak ended five games shy of Wayne Gretzky's record. But it doesn't take away from just how remarkable it was. The Avs fell 3-2 in the shootout to the Rangers and MacKinnon played 27:53 through the end of OT. https://t.co/nZnnxkO7R3
Nathan MacKinnon's home point streak is no more, and the Avalanche dropped their second straight game in a hard fought matchup against the Eastern Conference leading Rangers. https://t.co/uDBDUO8uXz
MacKinnon played 3:10 of the OT period. When the teams were setting up for the shootout, he slammed the door on his way to the bench. He did all he could to keep the streak going.

#GoAvsGo Nathan MacKinnon’s season-long point streak at home has ended at 35 games.
Avalanche and Rangers headed to shootout tied 2-2. Unless there's a postgame scoring change on Toews tying goal (now unassisted), Nathan MacKinnon's 35-game home point streak is over. First home game he hasn't gotten a point all season. Also ends 19-game point streak overall.
We’re going to a shootout. As of now, MacKinnon’s home point streak has come to an end, but I’m sure the NHL will be looking at that Toews goal closely.
Nathan MacKinnon's 35-game home point streak and 19-game overall point streak have come to an end. What an unreal stretch 👏 https://t.co/iDtbvYAVti
Rangers had the puck for over a minute to start OT and didn’t shoot it. The last 3.5 minutes were almost entirely one-way traffic. We are going to the shootout. Unless an official scoring change intervenes, Nathan MacKinnon’s home point streak has come to an end.
To a shootout we go! The #NYR have ended Nathan MacKinnon’s home point streak at 35 games.
MacKinnon's home point streak ends at 35 games. We're off to a shootout
We're off to OT tied 2-2. MacKinnon's 35-game home point streak hangs in the balance. It'll take a 3-on-3 point to increase the run.
Toews goal, which MacKinnon basically made happen, announced at unassisted because it was knocked in by the Rangers. So, unless that changes, MacKinnon's home point streak remains in jeopardy late in third with score tied 2-2.
Nope - the goal is unassisted for Toews. An own goal by the Rangers. Still 2-2, but no point for MacKinnon (as of now … scoring changes do happen) https://t.co/E7zWKWZjzJ
MacKinnon’s point streak lives on (I think) Toews with a shot from the point, Rantanen with the rebound. 2-2
A team might be able to keep Nathan MacKinnon off the scoresheet on home ice this season. That team will not be the Rangers. Mikko Rantanen scores, putting home a Devon Toews rebound. MacKinnon with the secondary assist. 2-2
Nathan MacKinnon's season-opening home point streak reaches 36 games
Rantanen ties the game up, and I believe MacKinnon's point streak will continue to 36. 2-2.
Avs tie it up. I think it's Rantanen. 2-2
With the current 19 game point streak that Nathan MacKinnon is on, he slides to 34th (13g/25a) in league history. He is sitting ahead Denis Savard and behind Mike Bossy. #Avs #GoAvsGo @TheRinkColorado https://t.co/1eBD4UZ6rt
Nathan MacKinnon's season-opening home point streak reaches 35 games
MacKinnon 43 seconds in. Streak continues. 1-0.
