Not an avs fan but makar is one of the only top players that I actually like. He’s unbelievable and apparently an awesome dude in person. Went to my grandparents complex and met with everyone who lived there
Even just watching the first goal, the creativity and elusiveness creating the open ice then passing to Toews to get set up for an immense wind up into a laser beam passed the goaltender.. just amazing. Makar is a legend in the making, he will be the most dynamic and talented dman of our generation and us Avs fans are spoiled to have him.
This kid is something special for sure. One of those players that comes around every decade or so. Looking forward to his future and I’m not even a Colorado fan.
THE BEST SENTENCE EVER IS “A little dangle and a little shooty shoot” “MARK MOASER” And then “Shooty shoot?” “PEETER MICNAB😢😢 RIP 2022 you will be remembered
i love how this video is about his goals getting more impressive as it goes on and my jaw already dropped by minute 1 because his edgework is so beautiful
@@cameronelisha3573 C'mon... Marner has scored at ~95-110 point paces for 4 seasons in a row now while also being elite defensively and one of the best PKing forwards in the league. Plus he has super fun highlights because of his creativity, he's just a really fun/exciting player to watch.
2:41 you can see the contrast in awareness and decision making from Toews and Makar. Toews tries to go for a clear (always a good play on the PK don’t get me wrong) Makar sees the open ice for a shorthanded opportunity. We saw in real time the thought process of two players at high speed who made different decisions in the same situation
Toews is criminally underrated enjoying life in Makars shadow. If Makar weren't on the Avs, it'd be the Devon Toews show. Avs are insanely lucky to have those 2.
You know you're an insanely talented hockey player when you can be a superstar defenseman while also having the offensive touch of even the NHLs very elite top forwards... I mean the kid honestly was made in a lab for all we know. You can watch him play and look intensively to TRY to find things he lacks at, but wont even find the most minor of flaws in his game... Oh, AND he's a cool, classy, humble, and overall just a down-to-earth kinda guy. Great time to be an AVS FAN ;)
@@Bleighckquesin the '22 Cup run, the defense put up offensive numbers equal to an extra 2nd line on a contender team. imagine having any random team and saying "yeah, here's a free second line you can have under the cap and dress each game. enjoy!" they're a cheat code for sure
Love my Avs!! Such an exciting time for them! And just think, 5 years ago they had one of the worst seasons in NHL history. Makar is a godsend. That goal against the Blackhawks was just jawdropping perfection. I've lost count how many times I've watched it and it still blows me away 🤯
People who don't think he has a case for best player in hockey clearly don't watch Avalanche games. These are just the sort of things he can do offensively. He's a nightmare to deal with defensively. I'll say McDavid is the best player in hockey. For now.
@@micahthegamer3770 best man on the ice always....like Roy or Brodeur who werent forwards but were the best on the ice.And Makar brings so much more to his team than overrated McD i dont hesitate to name him best active player in the NHL at the moment.
After watching and being a fan of the Avs for 25 years, I'm ecstatic about what they can do with their core now. It really sucks that Kadri left but I understand why, I am really glad they kept Nichushkin and Lehkonen though. I'm also glad Avs didn't win the cup during COVID or while above the cap. The win by the Avs was true with no doubt why they won. I said at the beginning of last season to my buddy, if they win the cup it's going to be because of Makar, and it was.
When i see wrist shots like that i think of wendel clark. Clark had a bullet wrist shot with a wooden stick. I wonder would the new sticks have made a difference and vice versa would like to see makar shoot with a woodie. Gonna be nice to watch and see how good this kid gets.
Damn, to think Makar is still only 23 years old and might be the best hockey player on earth. Then pair his magic with MacKinnon, you get straight mythical play night in night out. Remember these days Avs fans, we won't see the likes of Makar ever again, at least in our lifetimes.
These two together are insane because they have such supreme skating abilities! Is Sammy G the third best skater on the team? Can I put him up there with those 2 as like best skaters in the league? Side note: I’m a Rangers fan and although it’s different, Panarin and Fox have that top tier vision, playmaking/passing ability. Not the same as the Avs boys but the duos playing together for their respective teams makes it a must watch.
I still feel bad for Kirby Dach on that last clip. The guy’s first game back after having his wrist broken, then gets his ankles broken by Makar in overtime.
#AllHailCale Makar is absolutely tearing it up ever since his debut in the NHL, breaking records everywhere he goes, stays healthy will be the absolute goat before long imho #GoAvsGo
A lot of people say McDavid is the best player in the NHL right now, but I think it's Makar. No one else in the league is able to do what does in total on the ice
Makar is my favorite player.. hands down. Now is it me or does it seem like Makar isnt attacking the net as often as he used to? Maybe I'm just blinded by my love for him as a player, so even if he played 60min straight and got a hat trick, it still wouldn't be enough for me lol
Nope. Learn the sport. Mackinnon got to that ice first and the other player ran into him. You are not required to move out of the way of other players. If you get to a spot on the ice first then you own that spot. Mackinnon also just had the puck, so it was a check against Mackinnon anyway...
homer broadcasts are really fun though. better that than dead energy or "we're not supposed to be biased but we actually are and we'll show it" broadcasters.
As a diehard Avs fan, it’s magical that we get to watch him and MacKinnon tear it up with spectacular plays night in and night out. Good Lord…
Us Avs fans have waited a while for our dynasty to come back. And here it is. The future.
And we get them both for at least the next 8 years 😂😂
Not an avs fan but makar is one of the only top players that I actually like. He’s unbelievable and apparently an awesome dude in person. Went to my grandparents complex and met with everyone who lived there
as a knights fan, i still get entertained by his ankle breakers they make me laugh
I am a big avs fan too
I love how avalanche lost their 1st overall pick in 2017 yet they still got the best player
One of the biggest unsung heroes of the Avs is the scouting team.
Remember too, one of the analysts said the 2017 draft had no future superstars. Looks like they missed that prediction.
@@SuperThumpasaurus
And Cale may be past "superstar" my friend, he may be "Generational".
Makar could probably play forward too, guy is a beast.
We needed it as denver sports fans Cale is amazing I’ve been an avs fan my whole life

@@luf4rall Peter McNabb, the analyst. He died of cancer during the 2223 season.
One of the best hockey channels rn. A complete like this for mcdavid and other superstars would be awesome
It's a special time to be a hockey fan. Guys like Makar, McDavid, MacKinnon, Matthews, Marner... and that's just the "M"s!!!!
hahahaha
Agree with everyone except Marner.

Classified documents confirm Cale Makar was part of the Spartan ll program.
It's honestly like they're playing with 4 forwards and 2 defensemen when he's on the ice because he's so good at each end he just does both

Great stuff! So good to hear Peter McNab's voice again, too!
The one he scored on a give and go with Kadri vs Seattle should be on his TOP 3 ever.
All hail Cale!! What a beast! I love being a die hard Avs fan, it never gets old :3
I love the reaction from the announcer at 1:51 "We're done, you and I are done" lol
That was Peter McNab, our color commentator who recently passed away.
Having watched Bobby Orr turn the hockey world upside down, Cale doing the same.
"A little dangle, a little shooty-shoot"
That goal vs chicago… unreal lol. He’s the guy you create in nhl.
I wish you would’ve also included that unreal snipe he had against Nashville in the regular season too. This kid is insane.
Kraken fan here. Dude is legit a unicorn. Lucky you guys have him, Nate and Rat. Monsters on the ice.
Dude's an absolute Stud in the present.
I was at that Ottawa game sitting a few rows directly behind the goalie. Probably the best view in the house for that shot. Just labeled.
After watching and being a fan of the Avs for 25 years, I'm ecstatic about what they can do with their core now. It really sucks that Kadri left but I understand why, I am really glad they kept Nichushkin and Lehkonen though.

The last goal - he did it again the next game. The season is starting boys this is going to be exciting our legacy begins.
the kid's magic. he's like Bobby Orr with moves.

Goalies are always shaking their head after he scores. They're like "Damn, how the hell did he do that?"
Call this man Johnny Cash because he walks the line better than anyone !!
Lol
Still trying to figure out what happens on the goal at 6:18. it almost looks like he flips it up and bats it into the net.
great vid but u missed that reg szn snipe against the preds this year that was my favorite one 😭
Maker is an extremely cerebral player, he is thinking his next move all the time. Definitely my kind of player, he’s so sharp!
i’m still so happy i got to see that game 1 goal against the predators in person
I think his goal against Calgary in his first game, first shift, first shot should have been up there with the OT winner against the Hawks.
I said Jesus fucking christ to the 2nd goal, dude is so talented
barely use slap-shot but his wristers are the best i have ever seen.
6:20 what the hell was even that ?! dude is unreal
He's doing all this at this just 23 years old
All great goals but holy sh!t that last one was a thing of beauty. Phenomenal player.
I still feel bad for Kirby Dach on that last clip. The guy’s first game back after having his wrist broken, then gets his ankles broken by Makar in overtime.
If you look at 7:41 Cale makar not only jukes the player but the camera man too..holy damn!!
+155 to win the norris this year. get your money in now!
#AllHailCale Makar is absolutely tearing it up ever since his debut in the NHL, breaking records everywhere he goes, stays healthy will be the absolute goat before long imho #GoAvsGo
Do Trevor Zegras goals sometime in the future!
This video way too goated

The best D-man in the planet!!!! Go Avs go!
Cale Makar is some unbelievable talent, one of the best offensive defensemen in the League.
It's not that the greatest Makar goal was great, it's that he did it against an easy first-ballot hall-of-famer in Marc-Andre Fleury.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Cale👍👍👍🍀
Cale Makar traded Kirby Dach to Montreal.
He will be a Avalanche Player his whole career, Joe won't let him go! More Cups insight for the Av's with this guy!!!!!!!
Colorado's definitely got it going on these days, no doubt.
This kid is so good it’s crazy
this is like asmr for me
what i always say about cale makar is by the way he scores anyone who doesn't watch hockey wouldnt believe he's a defense man
Nice
Most talented defenseman since Orr I said it feel free to attack me
Makar is my favorite player.. hands down. Now is it me or does it seem like Makar isnt attacking the net as often as he used to? Maybe I'm just blinded by my love for him as a player, so even if he played 60min straight and got a hat trick, it still wouldn't be enough for me lol
ALL HAIL CALE❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a stud.
6:45
Cale Makar goals but Mosey increasingly creams more in his pants
Gretzky sees him as good as Orr!!! How's that for a statement??
CALE MAKARRRR!!!!! MVP
This man deserves more $ than McKinnon!
second most dynamic player in the nhl behind mcdavid
Some would argue even more dynamic being that he’s a defenseman who is capable of such offensive power. Incredible talent and power.
You can't forget the Mac attack
I was at the second one!!
Hey I think this Makar guy is kinda good at hockey.
Tip in goals but they get increasingly more lucky?
You'll see a ton of Crosby on that list.
He just makes it look too easy
McDavid might be the best player physically, I think Makar is the most talented and fun to watch!
Best player in the NHL
If the Avs don't keep Makar for his entire playing career and after, they are morons. The guy is just amazing
Steph Curry might have Connor McDavid's creativity, but MAKAR has unlimited range
Wtf is that comment?
Crosby is goat 🐐. Makar tied for second with McDavid. That’s the reality.
Come on. We ALL knew which one had to be the last/top one.
8:01 interference by MacKinnon…
Nope. Learn the sport. Mackinnon got to that ice first and the other player ran into him. You are not required to move out of the way of other players. If you get to a spot on the ice first then you own that spot. Mackinnon also just had the puck, so it was a check against Mackinnon anyway...
Go avs go
Great player.. it's too bad his play by play announcer is a grown man who thinks repeating "shimmy" is anything less than cringe
CLUTCHEST player in the nhl
Matt The Rat Tkuchtuck
Eh, he's okay.
He plays defense?????????????????
he literally has the same fake on every shot. defenses will pick this up in time. great player but time will tell If it's sustainable .
Filthy with a capital F
Mcdavid is compared to these cheap goals? I get he’s a D man but don’t compare great player to an elite player!
Avalanche homer broadcasters have to go, they are not good at calling games
homer broadcasts are really fun though. better that than dead energy or "we're not supposed to be biased but we actually are and we'll show it" broadcasters.
I agree, unwatchable. Bottom 5 announcers
Tell me your team has a boring broadcast team without telling me your team has a boring broadcast team 🙄
Fox better
hahahaha

I mean until he gets a Conn Smythe and a Cup to his name I believe your opinion is wrong.
