The greatest defenceman of this generation Cale Makar added another accolade to his stellar career so far. Makar scored the first goal of the game against the Dallas Stars tonight. He has now officially become the fastest defenseman to reach the 200 points. Achieving this feat in just 195 games.

All hail 🥬.

Cale Makar (@Cmakar8) has become the fastest defenseman to reach the 200 point marker � achieving this feat in just 195 games.

At just 24 years old, Makar has a Conn Smythe, Norris Trophy, and Stanley Cup on his resume. Somehow falling to 4th in 2017 draft, it has been fun watching this generations' version of Bobby Orr reinvent the game as a defenceman.

If Makar keeps up this play he could go down in history as one of the best defensemen of time.
