Savage was a great player back in the day and always a favorite of mine. I'm sad to see him go.

Mr. October, I think. He always had a gret first month or two, then died (production-wise). He seemed like a nice guy, though, and had a wicked shot - sort of llike Ryder's snapper.

I'll never forget seeing lying on the ice kicking his legs and flailing when he broke his neck. that was one of the scariest moments I can remember. I was glad when he was able to return. but you are right , he always started off the season hot, then cooled with the weather....

You're right about that one. It was right up there (but not quite as gory) with Clint Malarchuk with blood spewing from his neck.
