Cale Makar showcased his offensive prowess, scoring twice to lead the Colorado Avalanche to a 3-2 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers. Despite a strong defensive effort from the Flyers, Makar's performance highlighted the Avs' ability to break through tight defenses.
Colorado dominated early, with Makar's first goal coming from a setup by Nathan MacKinnon. Although one of his goals was disallowed, Makar later found the net again during a power play. The game also marked a special moment for Erik Johnson, who was honored for playing his 1,000th game.
