Welcome in to the DNVR Avalanche podcast. We got Jesse and Rudo coming to you live today.

0:06.0

Jesse Rudo show. Yeah. I always love these. You know, not the two of us don't get a two-man show very often. Not very often.

0:12.0

I'm not even going to go there. I'm not going to scream that on you.

0:18.0

I love, Judah. We're talking winners and losers of free agency today, but Jesse, I wanted to start with a bit of a mercurial question. Oh, wow, great word. How do you win free agency? And I get it if you're the avalanche, if you're Tampa Bay, you're going all in. You're trying to make yourself a contender. You're trying to be the best team in the league. But what if you're in Anaheim?

0:38.6

What if you're in Arizona?

And I think the way you can feel good about your free agency while still, you know, being in the summer is, did we address what we felt our needs were when the season ended last year? If we felt like we had, and I'm making this up, if we felt like we had, we needed a center, a top

1:35.8

six wing, and a bottom six wing, and a middle pairing defenseman. If we checked three of those

1:43.5

boxes,

1:46.3

I feel pretty good about our free agency.

1:50.1

Now, there is another layer to that of what did you spend,
