EDGE Analysis
Makar helped out on Nathan MacKinnon's opening tally in the first period and then scored a goal of his own in the second. This was Makar's second multi-point effort over the last three games after he recently endured a stretch in which he had just five points over 12 outings. The defenseman looks like himself again, and that's good news for the Avalanche and his fantasy managers. Makar has 14 goals, 66 points, 177 shots on net, 110 blocked shots and a plus-7 rating through 58 appearances.

Makar posted an assist and blocked three shots in Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Stars.
EDGE Analysis
Makar's helper was the 308th point of his career, setting the franchise record for scoring by a defenseman. He's earned a pair of helpers over the last two games following a rare lengthy point drought (seven contests). The 25-year-old is up to 62 points, 167 shots on net, 107 blocked shots and a plus-4 rating through 55 appearances. Given his already lofty place in Avalanche history, his newly established record seems likely to stand for a long time.

Makar had a power-play assist, three shots on net and three blocks in Saturday's 4-3 loss to Toronto.
EDGE Analysis
Makar picked up the secondary helper on Artturi Lehkonen's first-period strike. The assist snapped a seven-game drought without a point for Makar, easily the longest such run for the offensively gifted blueliner this season. Despite the recent fallow stretch, Makar's 61 points rank second in scoring among defensemen behind only Vancouver's Quinn Hughes (70 points).
