Cale Makar, Mikko Rantanen, Nazem Kadri Stanley Cup speech

[@alwong604]

Cale giving props to his partner is the reason this guy is going to be a LEGEND...

[@williewalker8048]

He reminds me so much of Bobby Orr. His humbleness and humility speak volumes. Being his defense partner must be an absolute charm. You have the most talented player in the world and also the humblest.

[@neerajtohan2507]

He already is

[@maekoh]

he's by far the best defensemen in the league, he's already a legend and he's so young.

[@richardvervoorn6626]

CONGRATS to the Avs ! As a Leafs fan, I couldn’t be happier for Naz. He is what EVERY team needs, a gritty competitive, brave EXCELLENT HOCKEY PLAYER. I’m happy to see the Avs beat Tampa with a terrific system and the BEST D-MAN in the league. Have a great summer, guys !

[@Abcd-rb3zg]

He’s a restricted free agent so he most likely will be back

[@xarkkal7662]

Lehky is an RFA, so the Avs have his signing rights. The whole reason Sakic was willing to give up what he did to get him is because he is going to be more than a rental. He will be an Av for a while!

Did anyone just realize that Cale Makar is a natural on the mic? This guy can be an actor! He's got the natural talent and comedic effect too. A great voice, intonation, speech pattern, and the nuances.

For the first time ever because I was hard at working writing a long epic track for the Avs I got down on my knees and prayed for them to win the Stanley Cup. Our prayers were answered. It's not just hockey skill that makes them the greatest team it's the amount of love they have for us fans, for each other, and for their families and friends. Breathtaking watching this.

[@Milehighsnake98]

Unfortunately we have 10 unrestricted free agents, 2 restricted free agents this year alone. And next year 2 more RFA and 3 more UFA to deal with. This year Aube-Kubel, Lehkonen are RFA, Burakovsky, Cogliano, Helm, Kadri, Nichushkin, Sturm, J. Johnson, Manson and Murray are all UFA. Next year MacKinnon, Compher and EJ are UFA and Newhook and Byram are RFA.

[@ryanjacob3338]

I really want the sign and trade kind of thing. Give him the deal, the term, the money he deserves, with the understanding we will likely trade him in a year and let him approve the trade partners. Then he gets his term and money, and we get another year to develop a young center. But whatever sakic does I'm sure he knows there are ways around things, and knows what roster options make sense for him.
