He beats josi and hedman for the Norris and he beats them both on the way to winning the cup and the conn smythe🔥 this kids unbelievable!!! In his 3rd season 😂🤯
So brilliant
Provided that injuries don't derail him, future hall of famer without question. Ridiculously talented offensively and extremely sound defensively. Just an unreal talent and especially this post season I've grown massive love and respect for him as an outsider to the Avalanche. Just as a hockey fan, he is a genuine treat to watch.
I think he could retire tomorrow and still make it in.
He's the third EVER defenceman to win the Norris and Conn Smythe Trophies in the same season.
He has 198 points in 192 games. He's looking at smashing the quickest to 200 points by a defender by nearly 20 games left.
He lead the team in offseason point en route to lifting the cup. Making him the defenseman with the 4th most points in a single off season.
He's pretty much already in. They can't not at this point. He's broke to many records in less than 200 games played...
@@Karlmcewan Yeah, honestly with that on the resume I agree entirely. But I also know how Hall of Fames are and I would sincerely worry about them not wanting to put someone with so few games played in the hall.
But that's just hypothetical anyway, the guy will almost definitely have an illustrious and long career barring injuries. He's such a treat to watch, he's easily the most gifted offensive defensemen I've seen in my life. At the very least in his pure talent with the puck and stick handling.
I've seen some great offensive defensemen and Erik Karlsson in his prime, John Carlson at his best, Roman Josi, Lidstrom, Gonchar. The later years of guys like Niedermayer and Pronger. I know I've forgotten some, but none of those, maybe the closest being Karlsson at his best, show the skill that Makar possesses.
The most skilled defenseman I've ever seen.
I love the little segments of him completely shutting down McDavid, awesome attention to detail and amazing how such an offensive-minded defenseman can be so effective at shutting down super stars on opposing teams.
When your as mobile and hockey smart as Makar is shutting down star players is easy
This highlight video is perfect because it shows both the plays where he scores and plays that he doesn't score on. It shows that he was an absolute unit during the playoffs
I love this. The prominent theme in hockey since forever is: Put the puck on goal and good things happen.
Every shot on goal is a potential point. Doing this consistently, regardless of whether a point is scored is so important. I appreciate how this montage shows saves and non-goals.
I love that not every clip is a goal. It just shows how much smart movement he creates.
Very technical sounded on literally every spot on the ice, whether it’s on offense or defense. Offensive machine who just makes everyone around him better. And for a D-man, he doesn’t really get into beef much or checks but when he does it, it’s always on point. Truly a once in a generational talent man, dude is insane to watch. Easily on the path to the HOF.
Good job showing everything instead of just goals.
Favourite part was the Edmonton highlights, I don’t particularly care more or less about that team but Makar’s highlight in that section were just so nice. The defensive showdown paired with his brilliant edgework and offensive capabilities
It's a joy to watch him play. He plays the game the right way.
When makar came in the series against Calgary, I thought "he's good". I didn't imagine that he would redefine the position. The NHL is moving toward more scoring again, and makar is ahead of the curve. He has a chance to be one of the top 5 best players ever. Time will tell
Thanks for this video. As an Avs fan, Makar is the most exciting Avalanche player to watch since Forsberg. To watch him on both offense and defense is an absolute treat.
The funny thing is... he's likely to get better 😅 As long as Makar plays for the Avs, I'll be watching closely.
It still feels unreal. Can't believe it.
Believe it, friend. It's real. The Avalanche really did win the Stanley Cup just last night. I won't pretend it was the longest drought but it can feel like a life time. Cherish it and hope you can see it again for your team as everyone else hopes it never happens again xP Watching your favorite team win a cup is truly incredible because it's just such a hard fought championship to win and watching hockey is the most stressful and heart pounding sport to watch that you feel like you've gone through the ringer by the end. Enjoy it, just remember to be humble about it and appreciate it, don't hold it over any other fan base's head, except maybe Tampa for a few weeks lol.
@@adamg7984 lol. Good words. Thank you.
I am honoured to be one of the first hockey fans to watch this video, let alone Cale. Great job - Kani, Canucks fan from Van City
this guy is absolutely amazing
He is just a great player all around D-Man!!!!!!!
The way he escapes the zone, the way he eludes his man with one step and he’s shot out of a cannon, the deception. His ability to dangerous in all three zones is just amazing, we are possibly watching the next Bobby Orr in our lifetimes. What an amazing young man we are witnessing changing the game of hockey.
He Amazing !!!
I got live to see him plays
Such a team player .
To be able to dominate the league as defenseman at a young age, is unbelievable! He already accomplished his goals for himself and the rest of the Avalanche team, he is only going to get more trophies and he’s only 23.
Cale makar is my favourite player I love Cale makar
As a Flames fan, I watched Mcdavid totally dismantle the flames somewhat immobile and banged up d-core. Watching Mcdavid meet his match in a defenseman that could shut him down was at least a good consolation to how disappointing of a result that series ended up being.
truly special player
Congratulations to a great young player from a UMASS alum👏👏 saw him beat the Preds on the way to the Cup win...hey Don Sweeney..he was right in your back yard!!..🖤💛...Congats Avalanche
Another generational Canadian defenseman, the likes of Orr, Coffee. Gonna be fun to watch
Excellence. Undoubtedly.
No defensemen like him in the playoffs since Karlsson in 2016/17
It's not just the talent. But the confidence to go for it offensively. Alot of dumb coaches would have him sitting the blueline. You don't see this often with the advent of the two line pass.
More than anything else, Makar is a hall of fame player simply for his sheer energy. He brings it every shift, every possession, every play. That's why he finds himself in the right spots so often. Once in a generation talent.
He still looks like a little boy though, which adds to the disbelief.
Amazing player, I wouldn't be surprised if he's nominated for the hart trophy next season.
It's like having a McDavid "lite" who's also elite at defense.
I'd put a "offer sheet" on Makar once he's a RFA if I am a GM on another team especially on Central Division. His skill set and timing to take over are barely scratching the surface and so far on point. 😭
Best i have seen since Bobby Orr
That move at 3:40 👀
Crosby is the greatest of all time. And this kid is number 2. Mcdavid 3. Wow. Incredible.
Makar is top 5 offense and number 1 defense. Number 2 all time atm.
It is what it is folks.
Randy Hahn one of the greatest announcers in all of sports
After these playoffs, the world top 5 player ranking changed in my mind..
McDavid
Makar
MacKinnon
Draisaitl
Crosby
Matthews?
@@julianagostinelli9208 Don't worry about it. Matthews would certainly make it in the conversation though at times he's definitely top 5, there are times he goes cold and is pretty inarguably not. Many Pittsburgh pearl clutching fans, which I am one at times, still argue Crosby is the best. I just don't think so and haven't for a few years except my homer gets to me some times and people love to use the excuse that his complete game is what makes him the best. But, honestly, the raw production that McDavid creates cannot be argued against in my eyes. He's a modern day Gretzky or Lemieux, just a cut above the rest in talent and hockey IQ and that's saying a lot. And just bear in mind any one's top 5 or even a group's top 5 is very subjective but Matthews would certainly make it on some lists.
@@julianagostinelli9208 I debated that but Matthews would be 6 at this point. If he continues tho and gets it done in the playoffs things would absolutely change
@@zigfield723 ted lindsay, hart, rocket richard by a mile, mvp of the league and not top 5 in your list? lol
@@xyonix5193 He was voted MVP of the regular season, and that could have easily gone to the games best player who is Connor McDavid, he had 123 points. Johnny hockey could have also won that. But this is about the best in the game, not who had the best regular season. And until Matthews does anything in the playoffs he won't touch the 5 above him. Plain and simple
Hall of Famer resume and he’s only 23.
Wait until next year… should be his motto lol
Great player! Love these videos. Could you make one sometime on Jaccob Slavin? Best defender nobody's talking about
4th most points by a d-man in a single playoff season, in 20 games.... You can't make this stuff up
Clearly the best defenseman in NHL. Best 4 th choice in draft history ?
Makar must've been dealing with an injury this series... That's the only explanation why he underperformed this much this series...
4th most on points, but what about points per game? Only one team in 16-team playoff history has had fewer games than the avs.
Check for the coming years, Lane Hutson.
Go Canada go
Makar is Bobby Orr 4.0.
And only 24 years old!
Actually he's 23!
Really glad the B"s didn't go after this guy...
Hi! I have a business related inquiry, how can I get in touch with you?
Crosby is GOAT, this guy is number 2. McDavid 3.
cale makar making vasilevsky look like an average goaltender
lol the intro...he's a long way from Bobby
Yes but he might be the first in what 4 or 5 generations who has maybe the potential to live up to the legend
Yeah I agree, but he legit might be the next best thing. He's the closest I've seen to an Orr in modern hockey which really says a lot considering Lidstrom only retired a handful of years ago and so many other legends have played in this era. But Cale Makar has some freakishly high talent offensively and extreme creativity along with some really sound defense. He might be at least capable of going into the books as a competitor to Orr and that alone is amazing if you look at it that way. Of course he's not Bobby Orr yet, but he's also very young with plenty more potential.
A long way but certainly the potential to be the best D-man ever
@@adamg7984yes you can compare makar to Orr I mean Orr never had to play against mcdavid!!
Ranking old-timey greats above modern day players just because the old players were further ahead of their peers is nonsense. You rank the players based on who's best at hockey. Makar and many of today's defenseman have physical skills totally beyond what Orr was capable of. It's much harder to stand out today because the skill level across the league is incredibly higher and there is a much higher human population today, so there is way more competition to even reach the top. The gap between the top players and the rest of the league is not what's important. It's the talent and skill of the top players that matters.
