Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Did Patrick Roy Retire too Early? | DNVR Avalanche Mailbag
Q: Was Wah really done, or could he have played another year?
The hosts acknowledge it's plausible he could have played another year or two, but ultimately agree his retirement was a decisive, self-aware choice tied to his wear and tear, rather than a sudden or obviously premature move.
Who Are the Avalanche's TOP 5 TARGETS in the 2026 NHL Draft? | w/ Draft Expert Brad Francis
Q: Brad, thank you for coming on. We'll see. Hopefully we can get you out and do some of the live draft day stuff.
Brad expresses enthusiasm for future live coverage and collaboration, while outlining a plan to analyse draft targets as the event approaches.
Bailey Curtis sits down with Hurricanes play-by-play broadcaster Mike Maniscalco- UNCUT
Q: What have you seen from the Hurricanes' end that stands out as this series progresses?
Maniscalco highlights the team's depth, the effectiveness of their 200-foot game, and how the goaltending situation evolved with Bussey stepping in, which has kept the Canes in every game and allowed them to push through despite challenges.
Remembering Claude Lemieux with guest Eric Lacroix | DNVR Avalanche Podcast
Q: What do you want Claude to be remembered for when people think of him?
The guests describe Claude Lemieux as someone who valued family, was relentlessly focused on winning, and had a big heart; he was a legendary competitor who built lasting relationships and inspired teammates and others in the league through both his on-ice impact and off-ice leadership.
The Success (and failures) of the Colorado Avalanche depth | DNVR Avalanche Podcast
Q: How does Parker Kelly's breakout influence decisions on contracts for fourth-line players?
Kelly's surprising 20-goal season showed that a fourth-line player can have a meaningful offensive impact, which could justify keeping him long-term if the return on investment is favorable compared to alternative signings.
