Could do without Nordstrom.Intrigued by the Debrusk-Frederic-Nordstrom line
First the Caps and now the Avs. The streak ends today.
Boston 3:16 says I just whooped your @$$!
Yes,but the leadership he's showing the younger players by sitting out and taking it like a 6 millon dollar man is priceless.Love the way this team is run.6 million cap hit healthy scratch yet again.Always playing other teams at a disadvantage before puck is even dropped. .
