A good friend of mine Dan O'Brien, played for the knights 85-89 has always raved about Sullivan.....he watched him play JR A and said he was a special talent

[Goldie Knight]

WOW--after a most disappointing five minute power play which resulted in no Golden goals--how awesome it is the Golden Knights came right back and scored two goals in this first period. It looks like the 10, 11, and 12 line is back with a vengeance. Good for you, Mike, Mac, and Chris.
