    Hello guys, i'm 44 years old and i'm from montreal of course, growing up i played hockey from the age of two and started watching hockey on tv in the season 1982-1983 at the age of 6. My first idol was Mats Naslund but Chris Nilan was as loved as the team stars and still very popular in Montreal. A true warrior. Superb interview boys, it brought back a lot of beautiful memories. I was 9 years old at the 1986 Stanley Cup, it was my first cup and I still remember it very well. Chris Nilan, one of the most popular players to play in Montreal in the 80s-90s. Thanks for the memories.

      My NHL fandom started at age 6 as well in the 1986-87 season. The Leafs beating St. Louis in the playoffs that year on the strength of Ken Wregget's goaltending is my earliest hockey memory. Also watching the Cup finals that year between Edmonton and Philly with my Dad is another memory that sticks out.

      @ShoneShitSticks141 3 года назад +4

      Disagree. Even Nilan said it himself, Wilson crossed the line. Nothing wrong with being physical but Wilson has no honor or integrity when it comes to his physicality. Willingly engages with smaller or less capable opponents but picks and chooses when to throw down with guys like Reaves or Martin. Cowardly.

  • @jeffnador9594
    @jeffnador9594 3 года назад +1

    I frankly don't think it was a particularly horrible play on Wilson's part. The problem I have is with the fine. Wilson's a repeat offender. He was literally suspended this year. So when Parros gives him a fine, that's an admission that the play required supplemental discipline. And, when you're disciplining a repeat offender, it's supposed to be with a stiffer penalty. So it makes next to no sense for the play to warrant a fine.

    I deeply respect Chris Nilan but regarding the language issue of the coach position i don't follow him.
    But please, reinvite him. He's got lots of stories to tell i am sure.

    Goaltending is atrocious in the north division. If you look at the save percentages for tenders that have played in 10 or more games, you have Smith at 8th, Campbell at 9th, and Brossoit with 14 games at 12th, Hellebuyck at 18th. McDavid's numbers are impressive, but don't act like he's going to be throwing up 160pts next season when he isn't playing against mediocre tenders every night.

      I have a very strong feeling this will age poorly... I can't guarantee McDavid puts up 160, but like 140+ for him I think is pretty realistic for next year.
