[Avaholic29]

What is a realistic point total to expect from Makar in his first full regular season, and do you think he will play pp1?

I can see him putting up 40-50. I still don't think he passes Barrie and gets on the top unit. At least until late in the season.

 

[yeaher]

100-125 hopefully

 

[Balthazar]

8 goals, 24 assists for 32 points.

 

[Makar to MacK]

I hope he scores 25 goals and 35 assists but I think it will be more like 20 goals and 25 assists. For his 1st whole season I'll still be happy. Makar is gonna be a top 5 defensiveman within 5 years imo. His confidence in the playoffs still amazes me. Future is bright for our Avs

 

[Freudian]

Depends on if Barrie plays on the first power play or not. If he does, Makar should get 30-35 points. If Barrie is traded and Makar is running the first PP, he'll get 35-40 points.

You probably want to want to adjust your expectations. In the last five years, eight defenders have scored 20 goals or more. One player has scored 25 goals or more (Brent Burns who has scored 27 and 29).

 

[UncleRisto]

Is it seven?

 

[The Kingslayer]

35 Points would make me very happy. If Barrie still here he wont be on the 1st PP unit but Makar and Girard can give us a lethal second unit.

 

[Muffin]

80+ or bust.

 

[Raucherhusten]

 

[the_fan]

200 at very least

 

[Northern Avs Fan]

I’ll say 40 points. I think Barrie is going to run the first PP unit, but Makar will see some time on the man advantage.

 

[Tweaky]

16g+32a=48p

 

[Ivan13]

Around 40. Anything more will be a huge bonus. And I’m more interested in how he looks defensively.

 

[TruePowerSlave]

Around 50

Makar generates so much scoring chances on a regular basis that even if he doesn't play on the 1st PP unit he will rack up the points. He has done it at every level and nothing really changed when he played his first games against the top teams in the west.

He is the Avs best offensive weapon from the backend and I doubt the coaching staff is going to keep his minutes down that long.

 

[The Merchant]

21 G
43 A
64 PTS

 

[Tommy Shelby]

12 goals and 31 assists

 

[RoyIsALegend]

I hope he scores 25 goals and 35 assists but I think it will be more like 20 goals and 25 assists. For his 1st whole season I'll still be happy. Makar is gonna be a top 5 defensiveman within 5 years imo. His confidence in the playoffs still amazes me. Future is bright for our Avs

Good grief, you will “still be happy” if he only musters up a 20 goal rookie season?

One defenseman in the entire NHL scored 20 goals(right on the dot) last season.

 

[AllAboutAvs]

Around 40 and I'll consider that a successful season for his rookie year but it wouldn't surprise me in the least if he is close to 50. Just as somebody else said I am very looking forward to seeing how he handles himself defensively. That will dictate how many minutes he gets and the more minutes he gets the more opportunities he will have to put points on the board.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

9+33 = 42


Really though just a full 82 game season where he shows development especially in the defensive side of the game is all I want to see.

I dont have any doubts that he's a future 50+ point Dman so I'm not concerned if he only hits 25-30 in his rookie season. The main thing I want to see is development towards not only being a future offensive threat, but a future two-way stud as well.

 

[Iceberg]

He will get himself on the 1st PP unit and will outscore Barrie.

 

[Echo Roku]

A 0.5 ppg pace does not seem unreasonable

 

[Cousin Eddie]

Somewhere in the 30's which is phenomenal for a rookie not playing top pp minutes.

 

[LTC Pain]

With top PP minutes - 45+ points. With 2nd PP minutes - 30+ points.

 

[Bonzai12]

Anything less than 125 will be a disappointment
