Department of Player Safety Reveal Their Decision About Cale Makar

The Colorado Avalanche's playoff run didn't start as they had hoped. It started with Gabriel Landeskog's injury preventing him from playing. Then, it was announced that Valeri Nichushkin had left the team after game two.

Their bad luck didn't end there.

In the fourth game of the series, Cale Makar gave a vicious hit on Jared McCann after the whistle, and the Department of Player Safety announced that they would have a hearing with Makar.

In the last few minutes, they announced their verdict.

The DoPS has just published a statement revealing their decision on Cale Makar.

The Avs will now have to rely on their defensive depth to fill in for Makar on game 5.

Do you think that Colorado can win game 5 without Makar, Landeskog and Nichushkin?
