TropicalFruitGirl26 Posted August 10, 2016 Share Posted August 10, 2016 I remember him from when ESPN had National Hockey Night with Gary Thorne and Bill Clement. Saunders was the main studio host and, if I remember correctly, always had a good way to ask intelligent questions of his studio analysts and always knew how to segway from one topic into the next. 61. Yea, in this day and age, way too soon. Condolences to his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
