Rest well, Chris. You were pure joy to watch on the ice. Chris and Spehar helped define East hockey in the mid-90's

Too young for sure. He was a joy to watch with Dave on the ice. Never met him, but did meet his older brother once in college. Prayers and thoughts to the family.

The Ed McMahon to Dave Spehar. Hat tip for some great tournament games.

You're right. Have have a subscription like most papers now.
Never forget the '95 semifinal with Apple Valley. I watched to the end as most of us on here did.
Whatever the cause of death was, much too young to be that damn old.
Blessings on your next journey, Chris.
