Preseason/Chara, we are past days where we had to wait well into summer to peacemeal articles for preseasons. Happy for Chara/Martin.
#NYC #NYI #isles #17 Thanks for the memories a little conflicted he got that high a position in management. Now it's time to say goodbye to Cizikas and ping pong Pageau. Martin should have retired with Clutterbuck a year ago.
