Michael Nylander

[laughs]

Like, he, he didn't think that because his dad was Michael Nylander and frigging-

Mm.

Mm-hmm

It was their eighth straight win in an opening game.

Happy birthday to Michael Nylander, who played in 35 games from 1998 to 2000.

Mike Johnson played in 92 games from 1999 to 2001.

And defenseman Bruno Gervais played in 50 games in the 2011-2012 season.

The, uh, the, the big Russian bear was the, uh, was the name.

W- the Michael Nylander trade, was that...?

[laughs]

I thought that he was part of the, the Nylander trade.

Just it's, it's an absolute slap in the face to my boy, the O-Dog to just toss him aside for episode 92 and already go with the 18 year old kid, as opposed to, uh, the O-Dog or even, uh, Evgeny Kuznetsov, you know, were 92 for quite some time.

Michael Nylander, Willie's father were number 92 as well.

Uh, so there's, there's a few options we could go there.

Um, Before we get into Gavin McKenna, and we obviously will talk about his debut and talk about his market.

Like, uh, that, that was not before my time, necessarily.

Like, I was alive, but I wasn't dialed on Michael Nylander's era.

Uh, I was a, I was still a pretty young dude.

Like, I was listening to Jock do, uh, Flames games.

I was listening, but my, uh, analysis of Michael Nylander probably not going to be the, the most accurate.

But I do think that Alex can sometimes hang on to pucks too long.

I think that is very much true, and that's something that's dogged him throughout his career.

I had a couple of them.

One of them was Michael Nylander.

Another one was Patrick Poulin.

Another one was Jimmy MacKenzie.

Pavel Demitra, the late Pavel Demitra, he'd be one.

Uh, Michael Nylander, I was there for that one.

Mm-hmm.

Michael, he made it.
