There is definitely something a miss with Makar’s skating. It’s interesting… because it’s almost unnoticeable at times. Especially when he’s already built up steam.
Short area pushing off isn’t right though. The explosiveness is not where it usually is at.
It is what it is at this point. He’s still a hell of a player, even with the limitations. He’s getting by more with his mind this season.
What areas has this been causing him problems though? It's not a factor in the coverage mistakes or unforced turnovers, and these are the main issues he's had this year.
IMO his mind is what's been causing those, whether distraction from the pain of an injury, or something else, it's his decision making that's been the problem, not a mobility issue.
