Avalanche's Mikhail Grigorenko: Strikes twice against Blackhawks

Grigorenko netted a pair of goals in Sunday's loss to Chicago.

They were just the first points in eight games for Grigorenko, who has struggled to produce in a bottom-six role this season. He's only 22 years of age and his nine goals are a career high, so we wouldn't be too worried about him overall, especially given the team's struggles this season. Grigorenko showed Sunday what he's capable of, but with Colorado out of the playoffs and not playing meaningful hockey, it's hard to see him being of much value down the stretch.
