Makar Provides Consistency for Shaky Avalanche
November 14, 2023 by Kerry Collins
After a rocking start to the season, the Colorado Avalanche have been inconsistent at best recently, with wins in just three of their last eight games. One of the things that have remained steady for the Avs is their superstar defenseman, Cale Makar.
Entering Tuesday night’s games, Makar is second in the NHL in scoring by a defenseman with 18 points. He only trails the sizzling Quinn Hughes in that department, as the Vancouver Canucks star has racked up 23 points through his first 15 games this season. Makar has been a driving force on both ends of the ice for Colorado for the past few years, and the team might need him now more than ever.
