| 0:00.0 | Welcome in to another emergency podcast, the second of this month for the DNVR Avalanche Squad, as the abs signed McKenzie Blackwood to a five-year, $5.25 million AAB extension. |
| 0:17.2 | Whether you like it or not, this solves the goal pending position for the foreseeable future for the Colorado Avalanche. |
| 0:24.3 | First thoughts, boys, as we have A.J.E. and Ruto coming to you live in normal fashion, I suppose. |
| 0:34.2 | Yeah. Yeah, you can tell that we're all making this up as we go, and we all had other stuff going on today, because we're all just, nothing's worked. |
| 0:41.8 | But I do think it's, I mean, obviously there's a little bit of sticker shock, and the timing of it is strange. |
| 0:49.7 | And it also shouldn't come as an enormous surprise, given what Chris McFarland said when they acquired him. |
| 0:57.5 | And he said, I'd be lying if I said if I was trading for him for four months of hockey. |
| 1:02.8 | That told you right there that they had plans in keeping him beyond this season. |

| 1:48.0 | I love that day. |
| 1:50.0 | They locked it up right away. |
| 1:52.0 | In my mind, I'm not saying there was anything fishy or done beforehand, but I do believe |

| 2:00.0 | You do your homework, you do your homework you do your |
| 2:01.9 | homework behind the scenes before going into this deal they knew what it was gonna |
