Chris Humphreys / USA Today Sports
Cody McLeod sure made his presence felt against his old team.
Traded by the Avalanche to the Nashville Predators on Friday, McLeod debuted for his new club Saturday, and proceeded to drop the gloves with Jarome Iginla early in the second period.
If that wasn't enough, McLeod also recorded just his second goal of the season later in the middle frame.

Up until Saturday, McLeod had played each of his 659 career games with the Avalanche, and was shown due respect from his former home crowd.
Perhaps the loudest cheer for a visiting goal in Pepsi Center history? Cody McLeod with his 2nd of the season. #Preds
