Kulich and Benson showing some quick sticks and hustle.

I have the game on NESN+. I swear Jack Edwards has had several cocktails.

I'd love to see Cozens centering Savoie and Benson,...high energy.

"Top shelf,...where mama hides the cookies!" Rest In Peace, Rick

I can envision Cozens centering between Benson and Savoie. Adds size, but preserves complimentary speed, skill, and grit.

These guys are fun to watch! Thanks LGR4GM for posting!

Achilles recovery is tough. Hope it's not like the NFL, where full recovery seems to be two seasons.

Not to be disputatious, but when have any of the players you list won NHL playoff hockey?

This seems like a "scared front office" move; overly cautious and uncertain of how to proceed, so go with the familiar. They are fully cognizant of the weight of the last 12 years of utility. It's a factor in their moves, but shouldn't be. Underwhelming.

No, Sam McCarthy's was on the corner of O'Connell and Kentucky Street. Sam was Gene's older brother.

I loved Hannigan. He had great stories. For his day job, he worked for a beer distributor. Saw him more than once at Sammy McCarthy's saloon down in the Old First Ward.

If they stumble out of the gate next year (e.g. 8 game losing streak) Granato needs to be fired, at a minimum. I reserve judgment on Adams, pending what kind of moves he makes in the off season. Without naming names (everyone has their [least] favorites), I hope for a minimum of 5-6 different personnel on opening night next year, and not just for the sake of change, but rather tangible upgrades. No more excuses!

Reading the post game comments, I sense perturbations in the Force.

Rick Dudley punched the snot out of Broad Street bully, Bob Kelly.

But we lost 8 without Samuelson early on.

Hate to say it, but I think heads have to roll; that blowout in Boston, and this game wipe out any good will that management knows what it is doing.

Maybe so, but at least the Avalanche have won three Cups, including last season's.

Wow, a former 2nd Round Pick, 33rd overall, traded for a 7th rounder. That's Buffalo

"I want moves but I’m also on the conservative side. I’m disinterested in giant risk-laden trades". I think GMTM left many with that feeling. We may have reached the polar opposite now. The actual price the Sens paid for Chychrun seemed considerably below the prognosticated price, and one the Sabres by all accounts could have met, or exceeded. We're not talking about breaking the bank to go off script.

Not doing himself any favors.

I honestly think Adams is afraid to make a deal. Seems like Regier; valuing what he already has too high.

Just watching the highlights, what a player Dylan Cozens has blossomed into!

You do a wonderful job of pointing out the generational aspect of being a fan.
