He really makes it look so easy.
What a skill.
I think he's gonna go down as the greatest D man of all time
Still very early in his career, but if he keeps having seasons like this last one & continues to build on it, he very much could be.
More like the greatest to play any sport ever in all of history including other universes
@@wnsbug Lmaooooooooooo facts, hoping i can be a fraction of what he has/will become lol
Nah Orr will be Makar though has some of the same moves and skating that Orr had. Or didn’t play long it was a different era.
can we please call him Cale "a shimmy move" Makar?
He Is the true definition of a dman. His instincts and awareness sets him apart from the other dman around the leaugue. I dont even like the avs but ill watch their games anytime.
Agreed. But he is not the true definition of a dman. He’s the best dman in the league, sure. But in my opinion he’s more like a skilled forward put at D. (This is just because in my opinion, his defensive skills isn’t close to his offensive. Plus there are better defensemen better at DEFENCE than he is.)
People don’t realize how impressive it is to pop Mohawks at the speed he does while stick handling
1:08 is just insane. Makar is an unbelievable skater.
And this 4:02
He really is a one in a 50 years kind of player.. Amazing to watch. And I'm a NYR fan.. 🦊
Truly. Although, you guys got a pretty sick talent in NY in Fox... May make a similar video for him & his deception.
@@hockeypsychology I would love to see that! Fox is also an amazing player.. I haven't seen a d man that played like this since the Leetch years, back when I was a kid.. Fox reminds me a lot of Leetch in some ways.. Both Makar and Fox are top notch, elite players...
He makes grown ass men look silly. He's got the supporting cast to achieve incredible things
Cale Maker, my man from UMass-Amherst, a joy to watch!
That, kids, is what commitment to practicing perfection looks like…
Countless hours... If you look at his junior highlights, he was doing this type of stuff then. Some were uncertain if it would translate at the NHL level but obviously he proved them wrong lol
This kid is a juke machine. All of those pivots, escapes, feints are just incredible to watch. He’s making a very fast game look slow.
Anytime I want to cheer up, I watch the goal vs. the Blackhawks. Dude is an absolute menace.
insane. i didn't know he could skate like this.
He’s a monster
Great compilation and use of the slow motion. Makar is such a great skater. Elusive and unpredictable with where he's skating, a nightmare to defend against.
Thanks for commenting! Hand's down one of the most talented players in the game right now.
He's the most gifted player in the league..
@@mike8066 What amazes me about him is how much he dictates the game at such a young age. Just awesome to see.
Dude could stick handle his way through a crowd of people. In a Phone Booth.
The way he cuts across his own body makes me think he's going to cross himself over sometimes
These new batch of kids are so skilled
I think the difference-maker for Makar it's that the speed of the game today makes the greats from the 70's and 80's look like slow motion.
So true. Anytime I look at old clips, I can't believe the lack of pace they played at. Of course i'm wrong because it's all relative, but boy did they look slow & clunky lol.
Players keep getting better and better over the newer eras. If he ends up in the hall of fame, there will be kids trying to be the next Cale Makar and mimic his skating. Now, there are amazing players like Zegras performing the Michigan lacrosse goal.
@@hockeypsychology that's because of the video quality back then. Obviously!! People 50 years ago weren't slower. We're not talking 10000 years here.
If that were true. How the hell did Orr or Gretzky have so many speed involving records.
1:07 “No Hurry….look at Makar’s Magic”….so buttery.
"stepped on me? Stepped on me?! This guy was dancin on me!"
Best skater I've ever seen.
Great video, very well put together.
Smoothest player since Bobby Orr
His lateral movement is almost as fast as his straight ahead speed. He moves laterally as well if not better than anyone ever has.
1:12 is astounding. Where does the energy come from when he stops on his left foot to then propel him backwards so quickly. Amazing edge work there. Watch it at .25 speed.
I'm glad you noticed this one, this one was impressive to me as well. Defencemen should really practice this exact move, so smooth
My favourite part
I remember watching it live. Friends had to hold me back
@@maseman5000 Damn, where'd you go if they didn't hold you back? Just kidding :)
this is my fav one and ive watched it so many times. doesnt look real i dont get the physics!
Cale Makar: Edgelord
the common denominator with the guys mentioned in the posts is their skating technique. few are over 6 foot tall but their excellence in skating makes them superior. the lower centre of gravity, edge control, and powerful legs are all shared strengths and make it virtually impossible to separate them from the puck, and they make it look effortless.
good point
ive never seen anyone move on a pair of skates like this kid does, the best skater in the league. not the fastest though, that goes to mackinnon
McDavid is the best skater and the fastest, gift your head a shake
Kaprizov can skate in the same way.
@@TheNamesSlick mcdavid might be who knows mcdavid had speed to utilize maybe in most situations its more effective so he doesn't use his edges but could still have them
it's so close. They both generate speed differently.
@@gatesgates7788 McDavid has better straight ahead speed but he is not a better all around skater than Makar....Cale might be the best lateral skater I have ever seen.
Thanks 🙏👏
🔥🔥🔥
Three of the greatest defensemen of all time played for Colorado. Ray Bourque, Rob Blake and now Cale Makar.
And all three won the cup with The Avalanche.
Starting to see a pattern here.... lol
everyone forgets about adam foote he was the shut down d men in the late 90s to ealie 2000s, ask the red wings what they thought about him, he did the d so blake and bourgue could get the points
Blake wasn't nearly as talented as Makar but he was soooo fun to watch. Those hips checks were just the best. I've never seen anyone hip check like Rob Blake and he would do it all the time. Probably took it's toll on his body.
The greatest player in the league right now. Guy could play offense like it’s nothing
Agreed. He took it to another level in the playoffs
That edwork @1:08 is just beautiful...best of the video
There.. now i can go play my game in 30 min!
He is a great player, no question. Not sure about saying he is the best ever like some of the comments.
He is quick and crafty but what really makes Makar is his skating, he does these open foot transitions at full speed (I call them duck foots to the kids I coach). You see that more in figure skating.
It allows him to keep his shoulders square and it’s impossible for the defender to know which way he is going. It also creates strange angles of attack that opposing players are not used to seeing.
If you’ll notice he fools a lot of defenders who simply turn the wrong way.
Great player though. Pleasure to watch.
Not the first to do this. Neal Martin was doing this in the early 2000's. Proves now he was way before his time.
Supernatural
Better edgework than Sid The Kid and he is the king of edges
I would say they just use their edges differently. Makar is probably more explosive than Sid but sid did better at getting low and is very hard to knock off the puck. Two different players but both are fantastic at what they do
best skater ever
After it's all said & done, you could be right.
This is what Doug Wilson thought he was getting when he gave Karlson 18% of the team cap for a decade
That contract is now one of the ugliest in the NHL lol. Couple that with Burns & Vlasic... you got some dark days in San Jose
When watching him in this video something reminded me of Pavel D
I’ve never seen someone deke people so brutally w foot fakes like this. Incredible.
It's just not fair.
No it really isn't..
Wow
ГЕНИЙ.
Half the time he scores a goal you need to bring out a body bag for the guy lying on the ice who just got his cup juked out of his hockey pants.
Makar is a L2 clinic basicly
is that what they meant with the generational talent
No disrespect to Bobby Orr but this man is going to surpass him in every way. All hail Cale
I don’t know what it’s called, but when he skates with both toes pointed out almost 180 degrees it fakes everyone out. Haven’t seen anyone skate like that.
He routinely makes moves I would've only thought were possible in a video game...by someone whose been gaming non stop for the last 10 years and knows how to 'cheat' the program.
First I should apologize for an unasked advice.
But man, go to the ice. It soooo much better then the video games...
i dont wanna be that guy but obviously cale has good edgework. and cales only getting better him and mackinnon they play off each other so well
but this just shows how crazy sids edgework is compared to star players
Cale makar destroys forwards trying to play defense
Makes them look like it's their first day on the job...
Makar is a league above.
Lane Hutson is very similar to Makar.
Interesting, I’ll check him out
How about making this video again, dropping whatever that sound is that is not an announcers voice, and replace that sound with the play call.
1:11
1.MacKinnon
2.Makar
3. .................
Kids, you don't have to be that good to be successful. Trust me.
Him and Barzal are the only people I know who can do crap like this
Barzal is so damn talented as well. It will be interesting to see under new coaching if he starts to flourish more offensively now. I think he falls victim to how good of a skater he is sometimes as he has the habit to hang around the perimeter at times instead of attacking the net.
Different types of skaters, but I think Paul Coffey's deception was better. But time will tell.
I'm younger so I never got to see Coffey in action. I'd love to watch him for a full game to see all the little things he does that the highlights never caught.
Second best D-man in his draft class! 1 dimensional.
Makar's edgework is insane. Top 5 in the league for sure. One guy I think who is a prospect and will be in the NHL in a couple years though I think will end up being the best player with the best Edgework is Connor Bedard... Dude's skating is next level.
New age Datsyuk
Anyone else wanna see him fight
not really
I hate the ave’s. I will say he has a large amount of amazing edge work that doesn’t result in goals.
That's just what I could find too. If you just watch any game, he's constantly creating chances with his edgework.
Man he's good. His skating is off the charts.🏒🏒
To me he is best player in the league.
The NHL has gotten too soft he would have been buried in the 90s. I'm not saying I want the game to get back to that style but a little more toughness would be appreciated.
