Well I'll consult you if I ever decide to make the dive. If you ever want to come down and have some track time, drink beer and eat beef you're welcome.
EJ traded back to Colorado

I think EJ will play next game against Chicago so he can play in front of Avs fan before they hit the road
He's washed, but he's better than Middleton and that's all there is to it. His interview with the journalists today was such a breath of fresh air. He's a Hall of Famer for me.

We should have brought him back in the offseason instead of taking two shots at both brannstrom and kylington. One was enough.

I mean that’s a natural reaction to being in a Sabres jersey.
I hear that’s the actual origin of The Grief Cycle.
Not actual NHL HoF, but Avs HoF.Hall of Famer

God I love EJ. He epitomizes what it means to be a true AV.
Maybe Makar can work with Malinski, Johnson and someone like Jan Rutta (at 1.0 M) next season for a cheap RD crew. Meaning Manson and a disappointning forward (hope not) can be traded so we can prolong Nelson etc.
And hop that one of Behrens and Gulyaev can step in at LC. Trade the other (the last one to show NHL promise).

I love God and my wife more but EJ comes in at a close third.

EJ's tenure with the Sabres just shows you how idiotic that organization is. I don't remember him EVER playing the left side in Colorado, and yet they had him there because they also had Connor Clifton on the roster. And then of course they proceeded to overload on lefties.

I can see Hall of Fame for EJ, but it would have to be a very specific Hall of Fame, like Hockey Hall of Fame for Players Who Own Horses They've Named after TeammatesHall of Famer
EJ ain’t no HOFer but I will not be surprised if they hang the number 6 in the rafters someday.

With him coming back and our core getting a second Cup and all, I'm actually really cool with him getting his number retired. Honestly, screw it... everyone that was around for both cups get their number retired.
Mikko, sadly, probably won't have his number retired now.
Mack, EJ, Landy, and Makar for sure. Maybe Toews and Lehky (if he finishes his career here).
Watched that show with Meghan and Chloe on Guerilla Sports, and they had Rahcel Tos on with them (good insight into her career and how she got to the Avs), and they questioned whether the crowd would cheer or boo Mikko on Sunday. Probably both. Lots of Fans are pissed at how he's handled this whole thing, and ended up signing with a division rival over less than $300k per year difference than what Colorado reportedly offered.

Oh, Mikko is 100% getting the boo birds the rest of his career as a Dallas Star. To the fans he's likely in Matt Duchene territory now. They will obviously cheer him for the video that gets played but after that he's going to get booed heavily.
