PHILADELPHIA — Cale Makar is the ultimate weapon when another team tries to park the bus.
It took the Colorado Avalanche a while to find a way through against the Philadelphia Flyers, but eventually, Makar scored twice in a 3-2 win Monday night at Wells Fargo Center.
“It felt like we were rolling offensively,” Makar said. “When the forwards are moving it around, it is fun for us as ‘D’ — we can move around up top and create space. I thought it was working well for us tonight.”
For much of the game, the Flyers tried to defend the Avalanche with a plan that looked like something Manchester City or Arsenal face in the English Premier League.
