Taylor Makar Signs Extension with Avalanche | Colorado Avalanche News

Taylor Makar just signed a two-year extension with the Colorado Avalanche, locking him in through the 2027-28 season. After a breakout rookie year split between the NHL and AHL, Makar tallied 24 points in 68 games with the Eagles and added 6 points in 12 NHL games. The deal, worth $875K, includes a two-way first year and a one-way second, guaranteeing his NHL spot. Drafted in the 7th round in 2021, Makar’s rise is even more impressive as the younger brother of star defenseman Cale Makar. With Cale also set to negotiate an extension this summer, the Avalanche are clearly building for the future — and Makar’s just getting started.
