Cale Makar Absolutely Embarrasses Ryan Hartman

Cale Makar of the Colorado Avalanche is arguably the best young defenceman in the league. He's smooth, crafty; to describe him as skilled would be a complete understatement. He absolutely dangled Ryan Hartman of the Minnesota Wild, literally causing him to lose his footing.

Makar literally made Hartman fall over after getting worked. Makar had the puck at the point and accelerated forward. He then pivoted backwards and moved the puck to his backhand, giving him an open lane toward the net. Hartman tripped over his own feet trying to figure out what the heck Makar was doing to him. This highlight is right up there with the Pavel Datsyuk's ankle breaking dangle on Logan Couture.
