Defender Calgary Nikita Zadorov commented on Cale Makar’s match from “Colorado” .
Colorado won 4-2 in the 2022 Stanley Cup Finals. Makar was named the best player of the playoffs. The 23-year-old Canadian has played 20 games at this stage in which he scored 29 points (8+21).
– Makar entered the NHL with you. Did you see him then, in the spring of 2019, as the best defender in the world?
– While there was such dominance, no. I still don’t think he’s the best defender in the world. At least I prefer the other defenders.
– What kind?
– Romain Yossi. Now I’ll probably be hated, but I’ll call Drew Doughty. He is one of the best in the world at his peak and in a good team.
Don’t you think Doughty’s best years are over?
– Maybe. But that doesn’t take away from my sympathy for him as a hockey player.
– But Makar still scored 29 points in the playoffs, the team’s top scorer.
Makar is handsome. No one argues here. Perhaps he is the best defender. But I’m talking about those I love,” Sport24 Zadorov quotes.
Zadorov is 27 years old, in total he has 485 games in NHL in which he scored 105 points (27+78).
