Jarome Iginla stays hot, scores two more goals in Colorado's 3-2 triumph

Colorado Avalanche forward Jarome Iginla scored two goals to spark the Avalanche to a 3-2 victory over the visiting Montreal Canadiens on Wednesday night.

What It Means:

Iginla scored his second goal of the game in dramatic fashion, giving his team the win with 2:03 remaining in the third period. It was his 17th goal of the season and 606th of his career. Last Thursday, Iginla notched two goals and added an assist in a 4-3 win over the Ottawa Senators. Matt Duchene assisted on both Iginla goals Wednesday and has 21 helpers on the season.

Iginla has 17 goals and 17 assists in 60 games this season. We project him to record seven more goals with eight more assists over the final 23 games. The 38-year-old's possession metrics -- a -3.2 Relative Corsi For Percentage at Even Strength and a 43.2 Corsi For Percentage -- are both well below his career averages.
