Avalanche's Cale Makar: Adds assist in comeback effort
Makar posted an assist and three shots on goal in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blues.
The star defenseman's first point of the year was a secondary helper on J.T. Compher's third-period goal. Makar has added six shots on goal, two hits and two blocked shots through two games, but the Avalanche's dangerous power play has yet to convert. That's where Makar can do a lot of his scoring, as 22 of his 44 points last season came with the man advantage. Despite a somewhat slow start, fantasy managers have little to worry about with the Alberta native -- his offense will be just fine over the course of a full season.

Avalanche's Cale Makar: Uneventful Opening Night
Makar had three shots, one hit, one blocked shot and finished minus-1 over 22:31 of ice time in Wednesday's 4-2 win over Chicago.
Makar did not set a skate on the ice during a preseason game, so this was his first game action since the playoffs last season. The 23-year-old blueliner showed some dynamic moments, but also some plays where he was running around, and finished second among defensemen in ice time.

Avalanche's Cale Makar: Will be ready Opening Night
Avalanche assistant coach Nolan Pratt said Makar (undisclosed) will be ready for Wednesday's season-opener against the Blackhawks, Adrian Dater of Colorado Hockey Now reports.
Makar did not play one preseason minute due to an undisclosed injury. He wore a non-contact jersey for much of training camp, but ditched that sweater within the last week and is likely to man the blue line for Colorado on Wednesday against Chicago.

Avalanche's Cale Makar: Ditches non-contact sweater
Per Adrian Dater of ColoradoHockeyNow.com, Makar (undisclosed) wore a regular jersey during Sunday's practice, indicating he's been cleared for contact.
Makar was limited to non-contact drills prior to Sunday's practice, but it appears as though the electrifying blueliner is no longer dealing with those restrictions. Makar racked up eight goals and 44 points through 44 games last campaign and should be one of the first defenders off the board in this year's fantasy drafts.

Avalanche's Cale Makar: Wears non-contact jersey
Makar (undisclosed) is wearing a non-contact jersey for Thursday's training camp practice, Mike Chambers of The Denver Post reports.
Chambers believes Makar is likely wearing a non-contact sweater for precautionary reasons, so at this point there's no reason to believe the electric defender won't be available for Opening Night. Makar racked up eight goals and 44 points through 44 contests last season and will likely be the No. 1 blueliner off the board in most standard fantasy formats.

Makar set up Nathan MacKinnon's first-period tally to give the Avalanche a 2-0 lead. The 22-year-old Makar has racked up a goal and an assist with the man advantage through two postseason games.

The 22-year-old Makar is up to seven goals, 41 points (21 on the power play), 97 shots on net, a plus-11 rating and 10 PIM through 40 outings. There's little reason to think he'll be bumped from the top pairing or first power-play unit anytime soon, given his solid results throughout the year.

Makar recorded an assist and blocked two shots in Monday's 5-4 overtime win over the Sharks.
Makar set up Andre Burakovsky's decisive tally just 41 seconds into overtime. The 22-year-old Makar is up to 39 points, 86 shots on goal and a plus-12 rating through 38 contests. He continues to play north of a point-per-game pace -- that'll work for just about all fantasy blue lines.

He assisted on a goal by captain Gabriel Landeskog, who redirected his shot from the point. The defenseman didn't need any help two minutes later when his shot eluded Martin Jones. Makar has 37 points in 36 games, with 20 of those points coming on the power play.
