Cale Makar's Amazing Response to Journalist Goes Viral

Cale Makar has accomplished more in the NHL at age 24 than many other players do in their whole career. After a Calder Trophy win in 2020, he'd capture the Stanley Cup, the Norris Trophy AND the Conn Smythe just two seasons later.

Now, Makar can add NHL 24 cover star to his list of accolades. One he doesn't seem as keen on, though, is comparisons to arguably the greatest defenseman to ever suit up in the NHL: Bobby Orr.

Both Wayne Gretzky and Vegas Golden Knights head coach have been among those parroting those comparisons, and Makar had this to say while interviewed by ESPN's Greg Wyshynski:

Though it remains to be seen how many of Orr's career statistics he can match before he retires, Makar is well on his way toward becoming an all-time great NHL blueliner - even if he gets hit with the infamous NHL cover star curse!
