Colorado Avalanche defenseman Cale Makar is day-to-day with an upper-body injury and was left out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Detroit Red Wings, according to The Athletic's Ryan S. Clark.
It is unclear when Makar suffered the injury. He appeared in Colorado's last game Saturday, logging 24:28 of ice time.
The rookie blue-liner has recorded 12 goals and 35 assists in 56 games with the Avalanche this season. He already missed eight contests earlier in the campaign due to an upper-body injury.
