Eddie Belfour should have and could have won a Stanley Cup or two with the Chicago Blackhawks,

0:05.3

back to Greg's point.

0:06.4

You needed that one more guy.

0:08.1

It wasn't because of Eddie Belfour's lack of talent between the pipes, right?

0:11.9

I mean, that guy, first off, from rookie year on, he wins the Calder Cup.

0:15.0

And I've never saw anyone so meticulous about his equipment.

0:20.8

He would sit there and just grind those skates in the hallway outside. I've never saw anyone so meticulous about his equipment.

0:20.8

He would sit there and just grind those skates in the hallway outside the dressing room

0:26.9

till they were perfect.

0:28.7

He knew exactly what he wanted.

0:31.0

And I mean, he was quirky.

0:32.8

He always reminded me of the guy who played Ernest T. Bass on Andy Griffith.

0:37.2

But Eddie was like laser focused on his craft.

That whole that whole group was that, right? Like they're kind of a, I always call them like Motley crew on ice. They were kind of, they had the long hair and they're a little bit brash. And Eddie always had a stick for your undercarriage if he got too close to him and he would fly off the handle sometimes. But there's a, there's a locker room in St. Louis that remembers Eddie Belfour was there. But you mentioned the series against Colorado and I was at that game six in 1996 and that was Jeremy Roanick's final game as a hawk.

1:50.1

Hawks was four, three in double overtime, and it's Belfour versus Patrick Waugh, but the avalanche are so much better. He makes 44 saves on 45, or 40, yeah, 41 saves on 45 shots,
