  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Racks up three points in win

    Makar scored a power-play goal on seven shots, dished two assists, blocked two shots and went plus-2 in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Kraken.

    Makar opened the scoring at 10:05 of the first period and helped out on two of Joel Kiviranta's three tallies in the game. This was Makar's third multi-point effort in a row and his third three-point performance this season. The superstar defenseman has two goals and seven assists during a five-game point streak. For the season, he's at 11 goals, 34 helpers, 19 power-play points, 114 shots on net, 51 blocked shots, 30 hits and a plus-7 rating through 36 appearances.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Pair of points in Friday's win

    Makar scored a power-play goal on seven shots, added an assist, blocked three shots and went plus-3 in Friday's 4-2 win over the Ducks.

    Makar ended a six-game goal drought with what ended up being the game-winner. He has multiple points in back-to-back contests and a total of two goals and eight assists over 10 appearances in December. The superstar defenseman continues to play at an elite level with 10 goals, 42 points (18 on the power play), 107 shots on net, 49 blocked shots, 30 hits and a plus-5 rating through 35 outings.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Helps out twice on power play

    Makar notched a pair of power-play assists, three shots on goal, two blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Sharks.

    Makar has a goal and seven assists over nine outings in December, with just two of those being multi-point efforts this month. The 26-year-old defenseman had a hand in tallies by Valeri Nichushkin and Mikko Rantanen. Makar is up to 40 points (17 on the power play), 100 shots on net, 46 blocked shots, 29 hits and a plus-2 rating over 34 appearances. He may not match last year's 90-point effort, but he should be among the top-scoring blueliners all season.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Credited with assist Monday

    Makar delivered an assist in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Canucks.

    Makar participated in the build-up to the team's lone goal, courtesy of Valeri Nichushkin with 46 seconds left in the third period, meaning the defenseman has cracked the scoresheet in three of Colorado's last four games. Even though Makar hasn't scored a goal since lightning the lamp in a 2-1 win over the Red Wings on Dec. 7, he remains productive on offense. He leads all defensemen in assists (29) and points (38) across 33 games in 2024-25.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Scores game-winning goal Saturday

    Makar scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Red Wings.

    Makar ended an eight-game goal drought by scoring what turned out to be the game-winning goal early in the second period. The star blueliner had been in a bit of a slump by his elite standards, notching just five points (one goal, four helpers) across his last seven contests. That said, he's still putting up elite numbers with 35 points in 28 appearances.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Two helpers in Carolina

    Makar picked up two assists in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Hurricanes.

    The All-Star blueliner had a hand in Colorado's first and last tallies of the night, setting up Artturi Lehkonen in the first period and Valeri Nichushkin in the third. Makar has been running hot and cold lately, recording three two-point efforts in the last seven games while failing to get onto the scoresheet at all in the other four contests. On the season, he's amassed eight goals and 34 points over 27 appearances, a pace that has Makar headed for his first career 100-point campaign.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Two more helpers in loss

    Makar notched two assists, including one on the power play, and three shots on goal in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Stars.

    Makar has multiple points in three of his last six games, though he was also held off the scoresheet twice in that span. The defenseman continues to pile up points -- he leads all NHL blueliners with 32 points (eight goals, 24 helpers) over 24 contests this season. He's earned 14 of those points on the power play while chipping in 71 shots on net, 35 blocked shots, 23 hits and a minus-1 rating. Makar is a plug-and-play option in fantasy.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Provides two assists in win

    Makar notched two assists, four shots on goal, three blocked shots and a plus-3 rating in Saturday's 7-4 win over the Panthers.

    Makar has five points and a plus-5 rating over the last three games. The Avalanche appear to be rounding into form now that most of their regulars are healthy, and that's good news for the players who held the fort early in the season. Makar continues to be the cream of the crop for defensemen, racking up eight goals, 22 helpers, 62 shots on net, 33 blocked shots and a minus-1 rating over 21 appearances. He's earned 13 of his points on the power play and should continue to be excellent in all situations.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Lights lamp twice in Philly

    Makar scored two goals, one on the power play, in Monday's 3-2 win over the Flyers.

    The superstar blueliner potted the first two tallies of the night in the second period. Makar has failed to get onto the scoresheet only three times in 19 contests to begin the season, racking up eight goals and 27 points in the process -- including three goals and 13 points with the man advantage. The one blemish on his line so far is a minus-5 rating, an uncharacteristic performance for a player who has never finished with worse than a plus-12 mark in his career.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Registers assist in win

    Makar notched an assist and went plus-2 in Wednesday's 4-2 win over the Kings.

    Makar set up a game-tying goal by Mikko Rantanen in the second period. The helper was Makar's second point over the last four games -- he's slowed down a little since his 13-game season-opening point streak ended. The star defenseman still has a fantastic 25 points, 47 shots on net, 23 blocked shots, 14 hits and a minus-5 rating through 17 appearances.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Finds twine shorthanded

    Makar scored a shorthanded goal on four shots and went plus-2 in Saturday's 6-4 win over the Hurricanes.

    Makar was able to avoid missing time when he suited up Thursday after being a game-time decision following an undisclosed injury Tuesday versus the Kraken. The defenseman's 13-game point streak to open the year snapped in a 1-0 loss to the Jets on Thursday, but he was right back on the scoresheet Saturday with his first shorthanded point of the season. The defenseman has six goals, 24 points, 44 shots on net, 21 blocked shots, 14 hits and a minus-6 rating over 15 appearances. He's earned 12 of his points on the power play and continues to be dynamic in all situations while also leading all NHL blueliners in points -- Josh Morrissey (16) is a distant second.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Good to play Thursday

    Makar (undisclosed) will play in Thursday's tilt against Winnipeg.

    Makar was a game-time decision after exiting Tuesday's 6-3 win over Seattle due to the injury. He registered two assists before leaving that match, and he didn't end up missing a full game, so he'll enter Thursday's action with a chance to extend his season-opening 13-game scoring streak. He has five goals and 23 points in 2024-25.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Game-time decision Thursday

    Coach Jared Bednar said Makar (undisclosed) will be a game-time decision in Winnipeg on Thursday, Marc Moser of Altitude Sports reports.

    Makar participated in the morning skate and played on the top power play, so that is encouraging. If Makar is unable to play, the Avalanche's next game is at home versus Carolina on Saturday. Makar is off to an amazing start with five goals and 23 points in only 13 games.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Doing fine, might play Thursday

    Makar (undisclosed) is feeling okay and might be able to play Thursday versus Winnipeg, according to Corey Masisak of The Denver Post on Wednesday.

    That has to come as a huge relief for the Avalanche, who haven't otherwise gotten much in the way of encouraging news on the injury front this season. Makar is a vital part of the Avalanche's blue line, and he's been one of the league's top players, providing five goals and 23 points through 13 outings in 2042-25. He registered two assists before exiting Tuesday's game due to the injury, so his season-opening point streak is still intact.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Tweaks something in Tuesday's game

    Makar (undisclosed) tweaked something during the second period of Tuesday's game versus the Kraken, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports.

    Head coach Jared Bednar did not have an update on Makar's status after the game. The defenseman left originally in the second period, then took one shift in the third before ultimately exiting the contest. His potential absence looms large for the Avalanche -- Makar has yet to be held off the scoresheet with five goals and 18 helpers through 13 contests this season after posting two assists prior to his exit Tuesday. If he can't play Thursday in Winnipeg, Oliver Kylington or John Ludvig would draw into the lineup.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Takes point streak up to 12 games

    Makar scored a power-play goal on three shots, added an assist and blocked three shots in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Predators.

    Makar opened the scoring at 2:54 of the second period and helped out on Nathan MacKinnon's tally in the third. This was Makar's second multi-point effort in a row and his seventh in 12 contests this season. The superstar defenseman still hasn't been held off the scoresheet in 2024-25, compiling five goals, 16 helpers, 35 shots on net, 17 blocked shots, 11 hits and a minus-8 rating. He's earned 10 of his 21 points on the power play, with both of those figures good for a share of the league lead in each category.

  • Avalanche's Cale Makar: Not slowing down

    Makar notched an even-strength goal and a power-play assist in Wednesday's 5-2 loss to the Lightning.

    The Avs have endured a rocky start to the season, but Makar has been a standout performer while emerging as the most productive defenseman in the NHL -- and it's not even close. He's recorded a point in each of his 11 appearances while posting six multi-point efforts in that span, translating to four goals and a league-leading 15 assists. His 19 points are tied for first league-wide along with Mark Stone.
