Awesome interview with Makar between 2nd/3rd periods. Including the head coach. Makar is very eloquent and smooth. Can anyone get the interview clip and post it here?

I think it'll be difficult for even the Avs to screw things up if MacKinnon and Makar are on the same PP.

Famous last words

Oh they'll try to screw it up but I think there's too much talent there for the scheme to limit them. Makar doesn't seem like the type to panic with the puck like some other people if the pass to MacKinnon is taken away.

Yeah I just dont see how you can watch Makar and still have concerns about his game. He can do it all. Ridiculous passer, filthy shot, elite skating, elite IQ, hard worker every shift, physical, kills penalties. And while he's a touch undersized in terms of height, he's going to fill out to nearly 200 pounds in the next couple of years and as we've seen, he is built strong and isn't afraid of contact at all.


We have a special player.


Cale's gonna be on the Hughes unit anywayz so no worries.



Landy - Compher - Rants
Mack - Barrie


Stone - Hughes - Kaut
Makar - Girard



Couple decent units.

(Kind of) related question here...wasn't Makar supposed to wear the C sporadically this year? Like he was splitting the job with someone else? Every time I've seen him he's wearing the A.

Avs video coach: "See, right here Makar you passed up a perfectly good pass to shoot the puck. We don't do that here."
Cale Makar: "But...coach...I scored."
Avs video coach: "We don't do that here."
Cale Makar: "But..."
Avs video coach: "WE DON'T DO THAT HERE."

"See here Cale comes up the wing, he gets the redline and shoots at the goalie. And what is it he should've done?"
Everyone: "Ice the puck!"

"Okay so here we see Makar try to make a crafty pass instead of dumping it in, so that our forwards can half-heartedly attempt to chase the puck. We don't do that here, Cale. Stick to the plan. Even when it isn't working"

Wasn’t it mentioned earlier this season that Bednar doesn’t tell players why they were benched?
