Makar was recalled from AHL Colorado on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Makar figures to slot into the lineup against the Ducks on Wednesday, filling a bottom-six role for the club that is dealing with injuries. In his previous five NHL appearances this season, the 24-year-old winger failed to register a point while generating seven hits, four shots and one block in a mere 5:29 of ice time per game.

Makar was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Makar made two appearances during this NHL stint, but he is still in search of his first point. The 24-year-old will return to the Eagles and wait for his next NHL opportunity. Makar's demotion suggests Joel Kiviranta (lower body) might be ready to play Thursday versus the Senators.

Makar was called up by the Avalanche on Friday, per Aarif Deen of Colorado Hockey Now.
EDGE Analysis
Makar has six goals, 10 points and 26 PIM in 26 appearances with AHL Colorado this season. He's also recorded no points, three shots and six hits in three appearances with the Avalanche in 2025-26. Makar might draw into the lineup Saturday versus Carolina if Gavin Brindley (lower body) and Joel Kiviranta (lower body) aren't available.

Makar scored two goals in AHL Colorado's 2-1 win over Rockford on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Makar has scored four of his five goals this season over the last four games. He's still at just eight points and a plus-11 rating over 20 appearances. He's seen a couple of call-ups to the Avalanche, but he'll spend most of 2025-26 in the AHL.

Makar scored twice in AHL Colorado's 4-2 win over San Jose on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Makar saw a little NHL action earlier in November, but the Avalanche have rotated through a few options to fill out their forward depth. The 24-year-old's rhythm was likely disrupted by the call-ups, as his effort Friday snapped a seven-game point drought at the AHL level. He has just six points in 17 games. The 24-year-old is in his first AHL campaign, so there is likely a bit of an adjustment period in play here.

Makar was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Makar has been shuffled between the NHL and AHL clubs recently, and he'll head back to the minors after appearing in Sunday's win over the Islanders. Over three appearances with the Avalanche this year, Makar has been held scoreless on three shots while racking up six hits.

Makar has been recalled from AHL Colorado by the Avalanche, the team announced Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
The Avalanche certainly are taking advantage of their AHL affiliate's close proximity to Denver. Makar was sent down after being recalled and appearing in Thursday's win over the Sabres, and now he's back up to presumably fill out the lineup for Sunday's contest against the Islanders. The 24-year-old is still seeking his first NHL point and has appeared in two contests this season.

Makar was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Thursday following a 6-3 win over the Sabres.
EDGE Analysis
This has been standard operating procedure for the Avalanche when making a call-up to fill out their lineup for a game. Makar played on the fourth line and posted three shots on goal and three hits in 7:11 of ice time in Thursday's contest. It's unclear when his next opportunity in the NHL will be, but he could continue to get looks in the absence of Valeri Nichushkin (lower body).

Makar was recalled from AHL Colorado on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Makar made his NHL debut Nov. 1 against San Jose, picking up one hit in 6:07 of action. He had one goal and three assists in 13 AHL games for the Eagles before his recall.

Makar was reassigned to AHL Colorado on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Makar had one hit in 6:07 of ice time during his NHL debut in a 3-2 overtime loss to San Jose on Saturday before being sent to the minors. The Avalanche have 11 healthy forwards for Tuesday's tilt against Tampa Bay, but it's unclear if Gavin Brindley (upper body) will be available to return yet. If Brindley can't play Tuesday, then Colorado will probably summon a forward from the AHL.
