Cale Makar’s future with the Colorado Avalanche is heating up — and so is his payday. With the team poised to keep their star defenseman despite a tough playoff exit, Makar’s next contract could shatter records. Currently earning $9 million, he’s targeting top dollar as the salary cap is projected to jump by $16 million next season — freeing up over $11 million in cap space from departing forwards. That surge could vault Makar past Kirill Kaprizov ($17M) to become the NHL’s highest-paid player. The Avalanche are confident they’ll retain him — but this deal might just rewrite the league’s financial landscape.
