  • Makar notched a pair of power-play assists, three shots on goal, two blocked shots and a minus-2 rating in Thursday's 4-2 win over the Sharks. Makar has a goal and seven assists over nine outings in December, with just two of those being multi-point efforts this month. The 26-year-old defenseman had a hand in tallies by Valeri Nichushkin and Mikko Rantanen. Makar is up to 40 points (17 on the power play), 100 shots on net, 46 blocked shots, 29 hits and a plus-2 rating over 34 appearances. He may not match last year's 90-point effort, but he should be among the top-scoring blueliners all season.

  • Makar delivered an assist in Monday's 3-1 loss to the Canucks. Makar participated in the build-up to the team's lone goal, courtesy of Valeri Nichushkin with 46 seconds left in the third period, meaning the defenseman has cracked the scoresheet in three of Colorado's last four games. Even though Makar hasn't scored a goal since lightning the lamp in a 2-1 win over the Red Wings on Dec. 7, he remains productive on offense. He leads all defensemen in assists (29) and points (38) across 33 games in 2024-25.

  • Makar scored a power-play goal in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Red Wings. Makar ended an eight-game goal drought by scoring what turned out to be the game-winning goal early in the second period. The star blueliner had been in a bit of a slump by his elite standards, notching just five points (one goal, four helpers) across his last seven contests. That said, he's still putting up elite numbers with 35 points in 28 appearances.

  • Makar picked up two assists in Thursday's 5-3 loss to the Hurricanes. The All-Star blueliner had a hand in Colorado's first and last tallies of the night, setting up Artturi Lehkonen in the first period and Valeri Nichushkin in the third. Makar has been running hot and cold lately, recording three two-point efforts in the last seven games while failing to get onto the scoresheet at all in the other four contests. On the season, he's amassed eight goals and 34 points over 27 appearances, a pace that has Makar headed for his first career 100-point campaign.

  • Makar notched two assists, including one on the power play, and three shots on goal in Friday's 5-3 loss to the Stars. Makar has multiple points in three of his last six games, though he was also held off the scoresheet twice in that span. The defenseman continues to pile up points -- he leads all NHL blueliners with 32 points (eight goals, 24 helpers) over 24 contests this season. He's earned 14 of those points on the power play while chipping in 71 shots on net, 35 blocked shots, 23 hits and a minus-1 rating. Makar is a plug-and-play option in fantasy.
