The guys break down the loss, facing Nazem Kadri, presenting him with his ring postgame, and what Colorado misses in a player like him. They then shift their focus to opening night’s banner-raising ceremony and a strong 5-2 victory over Chicago. The guys also touch on Jack Johnson being there to be a part of it all.
