This is the Jeff Merrick Show on the SportsNet Radio Network.

Welcome back to the program.

If you are a fan of the Colorado Avalanche,

you've probably seen this documentary already,

but if you haven't as you're waiting for the avalanche to face off against their next

opponent. In the next round, check out the saving Sackick documentary. Watched it a couple of weeks ago.

It is fantastic. It is all about the New York Rangers offer sheet to Joe Sackick and the

extremes that the avalanche went to to come up with the money, namely the $15 million bonus up front. It's a fascinating doc. Anyhow, we'll use that as an on-ramp to one of our good friends around here. He is Corey Massasak. He covers the Cavalanch for the Denver Post, and he joins me now. Corey, how are you? I'm doing well. How are you? I am good. Have you seen the saving sackic doc yet?

I have not, actually. I actually basically,

honestly, it might be a thing that gets done this weekend.

Mark Kisla, who used to order in the Denver Post and is featured prominently.

He kind of gave me a lot of the backstory and just, you know, some good stories about, like, filming it. But, yeah, that's probably on my plan for this weekend. It's, yeah, it's such a fantastic, it's such a fantastic documentary. I mean, I remember, I'm going to sound old here, Corey. I mean, I was old enough to remember when it happened and how our jaws were just dropping

and we're like, oh, wow, the Rangers are going to steal Sacki.

He's going to be the new Messier.

Messier's gone to Vancouver now and Sackay's going to lead the New York Rangers to a whole bunch of Stanley Cups. There's no way they can afford this. and then I don't want to spoil it for anybody here

if they don't know the history of it

or haven't seen the documentary yet.

The way they get there is fascinating.

Corey, you will love it.

Um, everybody here, if they don't know the history of it or haven't seen the documentary yet. The way they get there is fascinating.

Corey, you will love it.

So Colorado kind of looks good right now.
