Makar Ranks 186th in 5v5 Goals Against per Hour Despite Being Stapled to Nathan MacKinnon (He’s Getting Lit Up Defensively)

[a mangy Meowth]

Some canucks fans have entered a new, higher level of obsession with Makar. A sight to behold

 

[Mickey Marner]

Hughes has been much better this season, but no defenseman in the league has had a year as good as Makar in 2022.

 

[Cup or Bust]

I would absolutely not trade fox for makar straight up.

That is okay, no one would trade Makar for him either, so everyone is happy.

Hughes this year is having a better statistical season than Makar did in 2022.

Hughes 2024 at ES:

CF% 57.6
FF% 55.0
CFREL% 11.1
FFREL% 7.3

Makar 2022 at ES:

CF% 56.1
FF%55.4
CFREL% 5.6
FFREL% 6.1

Hughes also matched Makar's point totals in less games.

McDavid said in an interview that Makar was "on another planet in terms of being a defenseman", which is all you need to know

He also thought washed up Duncan Keith and Connor Brown were great additions for the Oilers and vouched for them to Oilers management.

Yeah, because Duncan Keith was an unknown commodity in the NHL and needed McDavid to bring him to the attention of Oiler management.

Jesus Christ.
