Prospect Info: Cale Makar - D [4th Overall] Part III: Not A Prospect Edition

[Foppa2118]

I mean... Foppa did all of that and we all love him.

Except Foppa would always be at or near the top of point producers in the playoffs.

He wouldn't get embarrassed by putting up a measly 1 point ( an assist) in a playoff series on top of whining and diving like Gaudreau.

That's why everyone loved Forsberg.

I'm obviously in the minority here, but it's because of that stuff that Forsberg was never even close to my favorite Avalanche.

 

[Balthazar]

Kadri is far worse than Forsberg for whining and diving.

Kadri is far worse than Forsberg for whining and diving.

Not a big Kadri fan either for the same reason (although I'm still glad he's on the team for the positives he brings). I just personally tend to like the hardworking classy players.

I remember the exact moment Joe Sakic became my favorite player: He was on a breakaway and got hooked several times very clearly - it even knocked him off balance, but he kept on his skates. I honestly don't even remember if he scored or not, but if there was ever a time to dive that was it, and he didn't.

All my least favorite players have the combo of diving/whining when the ref is looking and dirty plays when the ref isn't looking.

Easy now. Lets not say things we might regret later. Forsberg was a saint.

This reminds me of the time @S E P H called Forsberg a puck hog and the thread exploded with every post just roasting him for that.

When really we should be after @S E P H for all those damn K-Pop videos!

I still stand by that statement too! He was a puck hog, but Avs were significantly more dangerous when he decided to go into puck hog mode.

[The Abusement Park]

When K-Pop isn’t even better than someone nicknamed Captain Average

 

[Foppa2118]

I mean Forsberg for sure was a puck hog.

This wasn't a bad thing most of the time though because there was nobody better with the puck.

This is the worst thing that has happened in 2020

All of that is fine, just don't get him talking about NHL goalies. Prospect goalies are ok though.

 

[Spilot23]

I hope this isn't the virus and he will be ready against the Wild. If he has the virus then someone has jinxed it after posting that Hughes picture walking in a crowded beach and said this is something Makar wouldn't do

AJ from DNVR on Makar: “I’m led to believe it’s nothing serious.”

Not official, but hopefully he’s right.

"Dude, where is Makar"

From the tweety? I'm not seeing it posted on his account.

They were live on Twitter talking about camp.

Suuuuuuuuuure... Remember when Wilson's was nothing serious, but then he was dead?

 

[henchman21]

I'd take nothing serious as in not out 3-4+ weeks... with AJ it is hard to really gauge what he really knows and if it is correct.

I feel like AJ tries to let on he has the inside scoop, but he almost never does. I hope that changes, but that's been the trend so far.

I almost said that, haha. I think I might have had to quit posting for a couple of weeks, though

Burgundy Review EXCLUSIVE: Chris MacFarland Speaks (Part 2)

Some interesting tidbits about Makar in here from Chris MacFarland. Speak of a few more prospects as well.

“You follow that up after the really rough year we had a few years ago, and then to go from one to four in the draft, and to end up with Cale. He’s another special offensive type defenseman on the back end. He’s up for the Calder, but guys, in a few years, the sky’s the limit for Cale."
