Makar Torches Flames with 3 Points in Avs Return

Cale Makar wastes no time shaking off the rust, lighting up the Flames for three points in his first game back with the Avalanche. Colorado's blue-line wizard has that post-injury edge that defenses dread, and Calgary felt every bit of it as he dictates play like the Norris contender he is. With the Avs pushing hard in the tight Western race, Makar's return couldn't come at a better time for a squad that lives or dies by its top stars.
