While it's only recently started making the rounds in online discussions, Makar, a true NHL superstar, gave an interview to the Denver Post about five days ago.
During the interview, he was asked about the ongoing investigation involving five players from Team Canada's 2018 World Junior Champions, a team he was part of. Despite not being implicated in any investigation, Makar's choice of words has left some people uneasy.
Currently, Makar and all other members of Team Canada from the 2018 World Juniors are barred from participating in any Hockey Canada sanctioned events until further notice, including the 2026 Winter Olympics.
