Ryan Johnson mentioned the importance of good teammates.

Stetcher is exactly that.

Those guys matter in the dressing room.

Luke Shen's a UFA.

Another culture guy.

You can get Shen cheap on a one-year deal, right?

And here's the thing about Shen.

I would sign Shen, and then if he retires...

I'd put that guy into the development staff to help the young kids understand what it takes to be a good pro.

I think Shen's going to have a long career after his playing day if he wants to.

Oh, big time.

We had him on the show.

He was just raving about his time in Vancouver.

Absolutely raved about Vancouver.

Now, there was a rumor going around that Kevin Biexa was not on Hockey Night in Canada last week because he was in Vancouver talking to the Sedin twins about a job.

That's not true.

He had some time coming off to him, and that was that.

Now, I imagine everybody who played with the Twins, BX, Burroughs, Luongo, they've all reached out and talked to the Twins, but that doesn't mean everybody was offered a job.

Now, I want to say this.

I don't know how far management Burroughs wants to go, but that's one guy I'm hearing people around the league really impressed with.
