After watching him this past year I can say without a doubt he is the most fun defenseman I have ever seen play the game. I hope all of you get a chance to watch him in the playoffs this year because he is electric!
AV’s are going to have the scariest offensive defense possibly the NHL has ever seen once you have Makar, Byram, Timmons, Girard and Graves all together which should be next season. Whether they take the cup this year or not, they have a legit shot at winning multiple cups over the next 5-10 years. Sakic done gone out and built himself a monster! Crazy that the AV’s are only a few years removed from a 48 point stinker of a season but that did net them Makar so it was well worth the pain of watching games that year.
As a wings fan, I'm glad Sakic did you guys good. So far were catching up with Stevie Y in front office. Avs deserve a cup, they are one of my fav teams to watch. I don't feel as much hate towards them because the Rivalry doesn't seem as strong as it used to be.
@@jleif7736 the rivalry is gone. It's only for fan hype at this point. I doubt any of the avs or wings players actually care or feel one way or another about it
You talk to anybody in hockey about skating and using your edges and the first person they talk about is Sydney Crosby. I now put Makar in that Elite level skating tier. There are very few people who skate as smoothly as Makar does. Makar is one of those five tool players that is dangerous anywhere on the ice. He does things I haven't seen any defensemen do ever. You see how he shakes guys at the blue line, goes to a bird step and changes the angle of his shot to make sure it gets on net. He's a master of time and space to boot. As a guy who played defense my entire hockey career, when I saw him in college, I started fashioning my game after his. You have no idea the level of detail in his game once you start trying to emulate it. He's just on a completely different level.
Knew this guy was destined for greatness from the first time I seen him play in Brooks for the Bandits. He will be a top defenceman in the NHL for years maybe even decades to come. Thanks for the memories
He is the reason I bought a season ticket, despite not being able to afford it and living five hours from Denver. Mackinnon, Landeskog, Rantanen, Kadri and Nichushkin are just icing (pun intended) on the cake. You only see talent like this once in a lifetime. I don't want to miss a single point, let alone his minutes as stellar defensemen. He is the Michael Jordan of the NHL. He does things you just can't do, UNLESS you are Cale. All Hail Cale!
This guy literally is like a crosby all arround player with freaking elite mcdavid speed for a d-man, watching this guy gives me goosebumps, he does everything, he's good defensively and throws the body, posseses mackinnon/mcdavid speed both stickhandling and skating, and a freaking crazy elite skating, with insane both slap and snap/wrist shot. There is nothing this guy can't freaking do, holy moly
After the cup, I can't stop watching videos on him... It really feels like we're witnessing history unfolds like in the Lidstrom years. People are saying McDavid could be one the best player ever, Makar could be right up there as well, and it's exciting to watch those players evolve
My next jersey purchase is #8..... all hail cale.... if he is not rookie of the Year than shame on the NHL... Hughes is good but he is no cale...stats say everything if you want to disagree with me...
2021......makar is going to win his first cup and the aves 3rd. 20 years this playoffs.....AND AFTER 22 YEARS RAYMOND BOURQUE!!!!! 20 years ago we last won the cup. 20 years ago we last made the finals. AND AFTER 20 YEARS COLORADO AVALANCHE!!!! ITS OUR YEAR!!! ALL HAIL CALE!!!
Him and Quinn Hughes are both absolute studs. These guy's ability to jump up in a play is amazing. They both arguably could have been drafted 1st overall. Miro is excellent too and Dahlin was in Quinn's class so it's hard to say. So many great young Defencemen coming into the league
Not just Makar, the acquisition of Gerard and the two Johnson and Toews stepping up his game Makar has great d to line up with. Sakic really learned a lot from LaCroix.
I encourage you to make more videos like this. A great long montage of a player’s highlights through junior to pro. Like Quinn Hughes or Heiskanen or Dahlin. Or any other forwards as well. Because I personally enjoyed watching this highlight reel over and over again.
Hell yeah, once Byram gets his feet under him, he will absolutely kick right off, right now he still finding his way but I firmly believe Byram to be the Makar 2nd coming, put these 2 together and ya gonna see some absolute electricity #AllHailCale #BoByram #GoAvsGo
This guys skill is comparable to a brian surgeon doing ballet while preforming surgery with a butter knife. He's the new face of hockey and watching him play is awesome.
Ok so I Don’t know anything about World Juniors but when Makar lifted up that ridiculous small cup vs the Stanley Cup I just had to laugh….Not trying to disrespect the accomplishment of the World Juniors but it’s weird to see such a tiny cup…They need to make that trophy bigger….
Kid's going to be the best defensive in the league for a very long time..
I think this team could be better than 01 aves
Adam Fox would like a word.
You are right but an offensive defensmen
@@evirs Adam Fox has nothing on Makar.
@@evirs lol that’s insane
losing the draft lottery was a blessing in disguise. Top 2 player of the draft class along with pettersson
He’s the best player to come from that draft class no doubt. This kid has the skill to be a top 5 defenseman all-time.
@@HouseOfHockey14 he has just as much potential as anyone in the league, even Mcdavid. He is a very special player
@@treywilliams9629 100% agree.

@@jleif7736 baw still fuck the red wings for me but happy they are starting to pull together
@@jleif7736 the rivalry is gone. It's only for fan hype at this point. I doubt any of the avs or wings players actually care or feel one way or another about it
Hits skating is next level. How he can dance and change direction on the blue line is truly amazing.
Makar's one-timer, slap shot from center ice was insane! What a wonderkind!!
'Might want to figure-out more minutes for Makar'... understatement of the century in my book!

Barzal and makar are the best skaters in the league

This is so well done
Saw him during my college years at UMass, the best athlete I’ve ever seen in person
Makar shows shades of Sandis Ozolinsh. Both wore #8 and played with the same similar stature. Love it!
Really loved your video and editing…thanks for sharing your love of the AVALANCHE
I love right beside brooks and every game I go to I see like 10 people with his jersey and he’s such a legend in brooks
To 'Hockey Moments' production:
Thank you for this video. Well done! Your documentary of Makar's path to the NHL is amazing!!
I love this video! 👍👍

he is the closest you will get to Orr s greatness
I don't even like the Avs, but mark my words. This guy will be a top 5 dman in NHL history by the time his career is over.
After the cup, I can't stop watching videos on him... It really feels like we're witnessing history unfolds like in the Lidstrom years. People are saying McDavid could be one the best player ever, Makar could be right up there as well, and it's exciting to watch those players evolve
His brother also plays for the Brooks Bandits. Love to see both Makar's in the NHL in a few years.
I also heard that he’s committed to umass too
@@LammyV - Love that idea of Makar brother's in the NHL.
update: his brother got drafted in the late rounds by the colorado avalanche
@@lytral697 yup in the 7th round. Taylor Makar has a good coach at UMASS and Cale will help his brother I'm sure.
My next jersey purchase is #8..... all hail cale.... if he is not rookie of the Year than shame on the NHL... Hughes is good but he is no cale...stats say everything if you want to disagree with me...
The next norris trophy winner Makar!
Lottery numbers plz! 😂
2021......makar is going to win his first cup and the aves 3rd. 20 years this playoffs.....AND AFTER 22 YEARS RAYMOND BOURQUE!!!!! 20 years ago we last won the cup. 20 years ago we last made the finals. AND AFTER 20 YEARS COLORADO AVALANCHE!!!! ITS OUR YEAR!!! ALL HAIL CALE!!!
I was off by one year lol

"Timmins to Makar, back to Timmins," sounds like music to my ears. #allhailcale #goavs
Well that didn't really happen, but Byram or Toews works for me too.
@@canadian__ninja Me too, go Avs!
Not just Makar, the acquisition of Gerard and the two Johnson and Toews stepping up his game Makar has great d to line up with. Sakic really learned a lot from LaCroix.
Honestly I didn't know that he was on a line with Timmons.
The Avs have the best scouts in the NHL.
I encourage you to make more videos like this. A great long montage of a player’s highlights through junior to pro. Like Quinn Hughes or Heiskanen or Dahlin. Or any other forwards as well. Because I personally enjoyed watching this highlight reel over and over again.
wont be long til he has a cup. the Avs got a stacked team and now they got Bowen Byram
Hell yeah, once Byram gets his feet under him, he will absolutely kick right off, right now he still finding his way but I firmly believe Byram to be the Makar 2nd coming, put these 2 together and ya gonna see some absolute electricity #AllHailCale #BoByram #GoAvsGo
Byram is already their 2nd-3rd most toi dman. :D
You were right! 2022 Stanley Cup and he got the Conn Smythe trophy too.
Great video!
Thanks for the vid dude. Nice edit.
This guys skill is comparable to a brian surgeon doing ballet while preforming surgery with a butter knife. He's the new face of hockey and watching him play is awesome.
And now here we are 2021-2022 and the aves are 1-0 in the cup final.
Landeskog's advice to all teams for winning the cup is "find yourself a Cale Makar"
I watched him at umass he is a god
Last time I checked you can’t spell Calder without Cale!
12:18.... now that's offsides....lol
the 1 dislike is probably a Quinn Hughes fan xD.
The goalies are just left clueless🤣
lol he's my physics teachers nephew
Love the use of Denver Bronco legend, Ryan Harris in this video. Beyond that, yeah, how prophetic... Makar>Dahlin... it's not even close.
I was starting to think you weren't going to have Conor McGahey's call of "All Hail Cale."
Lane Hutson is the next one.
Kids gonna be the best d man since Erik karlsson. Maybe even better than hedman.
Ok so I Don’t know anything about World Juniors but when Makar lifted up that ridiculous small cup vs the Stanley Cup I just had to laugh….Not trying to disrespect the accomplishment of the World Juniors but it’s weird to see such a tiny cup…They need to make that trophy bigger….
he looks like a 5 year old and josi deserved the norris trophy wayyyy more then he did.
You good there bud?
Teddy bear uh ok now I get it.
Eh, he might be able to crack and ahl teams 3rd pairing idk tho maybe not
Yeah... he’s bad at hockey... 😑
LMFAO....
@Beef Jelly - Its terrible how the Avs ended up with those two players. 😉🤔🤔
@Beef Jelly First the Avs draft MacKinnon then Rantanen, than Makar what was Sakic thinking..😁
