I remember when Yelle came in. It was implied that he was a throw in, and some people in the media said that Colorado was about to put him on waivers before we took him.

The guy would do anything for his team. I remember seeing him block a shot near the end of a game that we were well behind in and thinking, "Dude, we already lost....".

I think he really had the biggest effect in a short time for changing the culture.
