I think Andrei should have been mentioned, esp. since he was one of three players who played with John and Karl and bridged the gap between epochs. (other two are harpring and jarron collins) re: Sloan not mentioning Andrei and Memo –

He gave thanks and honor to the people around him who helped him have the great career he had, and wished as much success and blessing to each person as God had given him. It was so refreshing to see and hear. The Admiral’s speech was great.
