Makar registered four assists, three shots on goal and a plus-4 rating in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Flames.
Makar has always been good against his hometown team, but he's taken it up a notch lately. He has at least three points in each of his last four games against the Flames, with Saturday's four-point performance being his best effort in the matchup. For the season, he's at three goals, 12 helpers, 37 shots on net, 14 blocked shots and a plus-5 rating through 13 appearances. He's earned just two of his helpers on the power play and should be able to be more productive in that situation as the season progresses.

Makar set up two goals in a 4-3 loss to New Jersey on Tuesday.
He fired three shots and blocked four. Makar has two two-point games in his last three contests, but he hasn't potted a goal in five. That wouldn't be noteworthy if he was your standard NHL power-play QB, but Makar has 50 goals in his last two seasons and 71 across his last three. He'll bounce back, but there may be a slight reduction in his output in the short term -- being a new dad is hard enough, but being the dad of twins born last Wednesday is enough to upset the cadence of game days and sleep cycles.

Makar notched two assists (one on the power play), two shots on goal, two blocked shots and a plus-2 rating in Friday's 5-2 win over the Penguins.
Makar wasn't able to get on the scoresheet Wednesday after the birth of his twin sons, but he bounced back in his second game back in the lineup. The 27-year-old defenseman should be elite in a top-pairing role for the remainder of the season. He's already amassed three goals, six helpers, 17 shots on net, nine blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over seven outings this season.

Makar was held scoreless on two shots with two hits, a blocked shot and a plus-1 rating during Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Stars.
Makar missed Tuesday's game against Dallas while awaiting the birth of his twin sons, but he returned to action during the rematch in the second half of the back-to-back set. The 27-year-old was held off the scoresheet for the second time in his first six appearances of the season, but he saw a regular workload and should be available for Colorado moving forward.

Makar (personal) is expected to be in the lineup versus the Stars on Wednesday.
Makar missed Tuesday's game in Dallas while awaiting the birth of his newborn twin sons. The 27-year-old was pictured arriving at Ball Arena by a team photographer ahead of Wednesday's matchup, which strongly suggests he'll be available and back in the lineup for the rematch against the Stars. He should return to his usual top-pairing role and play with the first power-play unit.
RotoWire via ESPN · Oct 14
Makar (personal) won't play against Dallas on Tuesday, Corey Masisak of The Denver Post reports.
Makar will miss at least one game because his wife is due to give birth. It's unclear if the 27-year-old Avalanche defender will be available for Wednesday's rematch against the Stars. Makar has registered three goals, seven points, 13 shots on net and six blocked shots in five games this season.
