RobbieHOST
Iron Man streak.
SnellHOST
I hope Brent Burns doesn't get the Iron Man streak.
SnellHOST
I might have to personally sabotage that just to keep, protect our buddy Phil's record.
RobbieHOST
[laughs] Yeah, just be like, uh, put, throw a banana peel down, uh-
JD YoungHOST
Uh, you had Erik Karlsson's contract.
JD YoungHOST
You were there actually s- in the last year of paying out, uh, the retained salary on that, right? You had, uh, like Vlasic, Brent Burns.
JD YoungHOST
Like, you had a, a ton of these old contracts that were for players n- that were clearly not gonna be part of the organization.
JD YoungHOST
And, and Grier was very aggressive in getting rid of those contracts, and kind of having everything come together, especially once you landed, uh, Celebrini, and you kind of realized, like, oh, Celebrini's gonna be really good, kind of having everything kinda clearing the decks for that summer, right? Even Logan Couture, who's still on the, the cap for 8 million, this is the last year of it.
JD YoungHOST
You had Eric Carlson's contract.
JD YoungHOST
They're actually in the last year of paying out the retained salary on that, right? You had like Vlasic, Brent Burns.
JD YoungHOST
Like you had a ton of these old contracts that were – for players that were clearly not going to be part of the organization.
JD YoungHOST
And Greer was very aggressive in getting rid of those contracts and kind of having everything come together, especially once you landed Celebrini and you kind of realized like, oh, Celebrini is going to be really good.
Gavin OcegueraHOST
You've got Brett Kulak doing the same.
Gavin OcegueraHOST
Josh Manson is going to be 35 this season, and Brent Burns, after this season, most likely will retire.
Gavin OcegueraHOST
Scott Wedgwood is on the last year of his deal, although they could always sign him to another one.
Gavin OcegueraHOST
So it does feel like you've got...
John ScottHOST
He's 30 years old, and giving a guy an eight-year contract when he's 30 years old, and he's not one of these little water bugs who can fly around the ice, it makes me nervous.
John ScottHOST
Or is he a Brent Burns, who just ages like red wine? He doesn't really slow down at all.
John ScottHOST
He just kind of transitions his game, and he's still a very effective defenseman.
John ScottHOST
I don't know.
Zach MartinHOST
As long as everyone stays healthy in that blue line, you're not missing Jacob Slavin for half a season.
Zach MartinHOST
You're not losing Shane Gossett for four different stints, which I still believe if he didn't get hurt that many times, he would have broken Brent Burns' single-season points record for a defenseman because he had 50 points in 55 games.
Zach MartinHOST
He easily could have broken that by a wide margin.
Zach MartinHOST
You know, as long as Jalen Sheffield was in and out a couple times, Keandre Miller, you know, like, Sean Walker was the only guy that stayed healthy.
Jamie McLennanGUEST
I could see a world where he's still effective and playing into his 40s and loving it.
Jamie McLennanGUEST
Like, that's the crazy part, you know? And, and people say, "Well, well, Brent Burns is still playing." You know? A- and Dwayne Roloson I think played at 40, 41, and Rolie wasn't...
Jamie McLennanGUEST
You know, I love Rolie, but he's more of a goalie body than everybody else.
Dustin NielsonHOST
Yeah.
Vic MorrenHOST
I just wanna hit some of the adds in terms of the money that Sakic has spent during this off-season.
Vic MorrenHOST
He did re-sign defenseman Brett Kulak and Brent Burns.
Vic MorrenHOST
Kulak signing for five years at four and a half per, and Burns on a one-year deal at 850K.
Vic MorrenHOST
They also acquired Jaden Schwartz from Seattle, three years at three and a quarter, Vinny Hinostroza, forward from Florida, and Noah Ylönen from the Philadelphia Flyers.
Jesse BlakeHOST
Phil Kessel owns the record for most consecutive games played in NHL history.
Jesse BlakeHOST
In second place is Brent Burns, member of the Colorado Avalanche, who has played 1,007 consecutive games.
Jesse BlakeHOST
If my math is correct, Brent Burns will break this record on February 15th, 2027 against the Columbus Blue Jackets.
Jesse BlakeHOST
That is when he will have 1,065 consecutive games played.
Jesse BlakeHOST
And whether you know it or not, you will be watching the first few minutes of the Blue Jackets-Avalanche game that starts at 3:00 PM Eastern on February 15th.
Jesse BlakeHOST
That's a must-watch.
Jesse BlakeHOST
That's a must-watch, and you didn't even know that you will be tuned in in the future to watch history unfold of Brent Burns breaking the consecutive games played streak currently held by Phil Kessel.
Jesse BlakeHOST
Skipping ahead two months to April 4th, 2027, we will see I think what will be the last time ever Sidney Crosby against Alexander Ovechkin.
Jim TothHOST
There are guys in the league...
Jim TothHOST
Brent Burns that can still play the game on a high level in their 40s.
Jim TothHOST
Stop looking at the age and look at the production that you're getting at the age.
Tyson RewickiHOST
Yep, totally.
