Potential injury could pave way for Taylor Makar’s NHL debut with the Avalanche

We all know Colorado Avalanche all-world defenseman Cale Makar as easily the best player at the position. His brother, Taylor Makar, received news of his call-up to the Avalanche from the AHL Colorado Eagles on Friday evening.

The younger Makar is a forward, listed as a left wing and center on Elite Prospects. With that information, it stands to reason that there is a potential chance that Makar will have his NHL debut in a matter of days. Per reports, Gavin Brindley, a fourth line player, did not see any time in the game following a hit by Ivan Barbachev.
