Colorado Avalanche: Media Notes
STAR STRUCK
Cale Makar has been named the NHL’s Third Star in each of the last two weeks, Nov. 15-21 and again Nov. 22-28 … He becomes only the second
Avalanche player to ever be named one of the weekly stars in consecutive weeks, joining Pavel Francouz in February 2020.
NOVEMBER TO REMEMBER
The Avalanche finished 7-2-1 (.750) in November, posting their highest points percentage ever in a single November … The previous mark was held by
the 1995-96 and 1996-97 teams, who were both 8-2-3 (.731) in that month … Nazem Kadri led the team with 21 points (4g/17a) in 10 November games,

13 contests (2.00) in March 2000 … Kadri’s 21 points were a career high for a single month, besting his 18 in March of 2013 with Toronto … Cale Makar
had seven goals and 14 points in eight November games, with his seven goals tying a franchise record for a defenseman in a single month and his 1.75
points-per-game average being the highest by an NHL defenseman in any month since Ray Bourque (1.80) in March 1994 with Boston.
ALL HAIL CALE
As of Tuesday, Cale Makar was leading all NHL defensemen in goals (9) and points-per-game (1.25) while ranking third in points (20-tied) … Makar has
reached the 20-point mark faster than any blueliner in franchise history (18 team games) … Jeff Brown (1988-89) and Steve Duchesne (1992-93) both
hit 20 in Quebec’s 19th contest … Seven of Makar’s nine goals came in November, tying the franchise record for goals by a defenseman in a single
month … His 1.75 points-per-game average in November was the highest by an NHL defenseman in any month (min 8 GP) since Ray Bourque (1.80) in
March 1994 with Boston … Makar scored in five straight games from Nov. 17-26, setting a new franchise record for the longest goal streak by a

the league … Naz has points in 11 of his last 12 games (5g/17a), which included a 10-game point streak … Kadri’s 27 points this season are tied for the
third-highest total through 18 team games in Avalanche history, behind only Mikko Rantanen (29 in 2018-19) and Peter Forsberg (28 in 1995-96).
GETTING OFFENSIVE
The Avs are averaging 4.00 goals-per-game, the only NHL team to average over four goals a game (as of Tuesday) … The Avalanche averaged 4.90
goals-a-game in November, the highest ever by an Avalanche team in a single month … The previous mark was 4.69 in November 1995 … The Avs

surpassed Bob Hartley, who won 193 contests …. Bednar, who agreed to a two-year contract extension on Nov. 19, owns a 195-155-40 (.551) career
record in six seasons behind the bench, which includes a 173-99-36 (.620) mark and four straight playoff appearances since 2017-18 … Overall,
Bednar’s 195 wins and 390 games trail only Michel Bergeron (265 wins, 634 games) in franchise annals … Hired on Aug. 25, 2016, Bednar is the fifthlongest tenured coach in the NHL behind Tampa Bay’s Jon Cooper (March 25, 2013), Winnipeg’s Paul Maurice (Jan. 12, 2014), Detroit’s Jeff Blashill

MARINERS SIGN LHP ROBBIE RAY TO 5-YEAR MAJOR LEAGUE CONTRACT
Ray won the American League Cy Young Award in 2021
SEATTLE, Wash. — Seattle Mariners President of Baseball Operations Jerry Dipoto announced today that the Mariners have signed left-handed pitcher Robbie Ray to a 5-year Major League contract.
Seattle’s Major League, 40-man, roster is now full at 40 players.
“Adding our league’s reigning Cy Young award winner is exciting,” Dipoto said. “He’s a high character person, as well as one of the preeminent strikeout pitchers in the game. Robbie brings real presence to the front of our rotation.”
“Robbie pitched against us twice last season,” said Mariners Manager Scott Servais. “He has that dominating mound presence, paired with the kind of electric stuff you would expect from a Cy Young winner. You can feel it from the dugout. He really controls the game when he’s on the mound. His intensity is a great fit for our pitching staff and our ballclub as a whole.”
Ray tossed at least 5.0 IP in 28 of his 32 starts in 2021, on his way to racking up an American League-best 23 quality starts. He tallied 5+ strikeouts in 27 starts, including 10 outings with 10+ strikeouts. Overall, he went 13-7 with a 2.84 ERA (61 ER, 193.1 IP) with 52 walks and 248 strikeouts in 32 starts in 2021 with the Blue Jays.
“I can’t wait to get started here in Seattle. I’m here to win,” Ray said. “There’s something special going on here with the team coming off a 90-win season, and I’m excited to be a part of it. I’ve already had a chance to speak with some of the guys, and we all want to be a part of the team that brings a championship to this city. Seeing the stadium packed at the end of the season last year, and the support of this fanbase, I could not be more excited to be a Seattle Mariner.”
Ray tallied an all-time record 1,241 strikeouts through his first 1000.0 career innings pitched and is currently the all-time leader in strikeouts per nine (min. 1000 IP) with a mark of 11.2.
Ray is a veteran of 8 Major League seasons with Detroit (2014), Arizona (2015-20) and Toronto (2020-21). He was originally drafted by the Nationals in the 12th round of the 2010 MLB First-Year Player Draft out of Brentwood High School in Brentwood, TN. He made his Major League debut with the Tigers on May 6, 2014 vs. Houston. Overall, he is 62-58 with a 4.00 ERA (460 ER, 1035.2 IP) with 453 walks and 1290 strikeouts in 193 career games (189 starts). He was selected to the National League All-Star Team in 2017.
Ray has made 3 postseason appearances, pitching in the AL Wild Card Game in 2017 & 2020, and the ALDS in 2017.
Robbie and his wife Taylor have three children: sons, Asher and Brady, and daughter, Leighton.
