Colorado Avalanche stud rookie defenseman Cale Makar sat down on video chat with Ryan Leslie of Sportsnet. With the hockey hiatus in full swing — and the self-isolation has been extended until April 15 — players have been reaching out to the media via Zoom and other video chat platforms.
A silver lining during this hockey hiatus is we’re getting to know the players a little better, the ones participating in the video chats. During the season, they don’t have a full 15 minutes to sit with just one journalist, not usually anyway. Normally you just get those deliberately bland snippets after the game.
