Life long die hard Philadelphia Flyers fan. Rod Brind'Amour is my all-time favorite Flyer, all-time favorite hockey player of all time! My first Flyers jersey, when I was 9, was a Brind'Amour jersey. My 8 year old son currently has said jersey! I was 15 when Philly traded Rod to Carolina and I legit cried. I didn't cry but I did tear up when Rod and Carolina won the cup in 06'. Love this dude and love seeing him being successful as a coach. Now Hall of Fame voters pull your heads out of your butts and put Rod in the Hockey Hall of Fame. He freaking deserves it!
Rod seems like a great coach..he gets max effort from all his players they seem to respect him and buy into the system, even with a ton of injuries the canes are still competitive
I think there's something to it when a coach has played at an elite nhl level too. Probably a different level of respect. Tocchet seems to have the same effect on his guys
I'm not a canes fan but rod is the man. Would be cool to see him win the cup as Carolina coach too. Has anyone ever won it as a player and coach for the same team?
Rod seems like such a great coach, you can tell how much the game of hockey means to him and I can only imagine how many walls his players would run through for him. He still seems like just a regular guy, it doesn't look like the fame and/or wealth went to his head. I always liked him as a player but he might be just as good if not better at being a coach.
1:20 You only get so many moments in life, that u create memories and be there for something so special Wow i really like that as i live my life in the moment
Such a modest individual and such a "players" coach. One heck of a human being too. Love his ideas on fixing how to call and review penalties near the end of the interview.
A players coach with a good eye for the game, I think that's important. Lots of players coaches played in the 70s or 80s and don't have a good idea of how the game is now. RBA played until 2010, he's got a lot better idea what it's like in the league today.
Love this. Fortunate to see Rod interviewed 100x per year on local TV but I think EF is one of the best in his field so this was a great chance to see them together. Rod should be in the HOF and his changes for officiating make perfect sense.
I remember when he played he was awsome and as a coach he is awsome. Such a awsome guy he is real and honest we need more people in this world like rod!
Growing up as a center my dad made me watch rod religiously for his faceoff abilities. I use to win very crucial faceoffs in big games due to him. He was a nasty goal scarer and had the speed
Love Rod!!! Been the biggest fan of his since ‘92. The saddest day of my life was when he got traded but when I finally seen him raise the Cup and as the captain for the Hurricanes was the greatest ever. Cannot wait to see The Canes raise the Cup again with him at the helm. This man totally deserves to be in The Hockey Hall of Fame.
We never traded him once he came here. He won the Stanley Cup here. He retired as a Cane and we raised the banner. We love Rod because he never left NC. He worked as an assistant coach for a while before he got the call for the head coach job. I appreciate when he said he’d coach the Canes or he’d retire. He’s right. We have a great place to live for players. We have good weather (until the summer and they’re gone anyway), we’ve got world class golf courses, and honestly if I saw Andrei Svechnikov at the Harris Teeter, I’d give him a head nod and a quiet “let’s go canes” as I passed his cart in the aisle. We don’t bother our canes. We know them and love them, we are still respectful and we will geek out in the next aisle over.
@@sweetwater156 as a canes fan, shut yo ass up😂 even if you wanted to trade him you had absolutely no say or control in what happens. Flyers fans didn’t trade him, the management did. Just like the hurricanes could’ve but didn’t. I love rods loyalty but don’t act like you or me are the reason for it, we’re not better then flyer fans we’re all just fans of our hockey team
as a canes fan Rod saying he doesn't know how long he's going to coach freaked me out, but I'd love to see him take over as GM after Donny is done, and maybe then Tim Gleason could take over as coach
This was a really good interview. Rod Brind'Amour is a such a great story teller and so down to earth. I like that he took the cup🏆away from Gary😂he was afraid his suggestion on the refs would get him in trouble 😂seriously thou the league should hear him out that was a good idea.😂 I 'm thinking he would make a really good AGM for the leafs or as a coach.... Just saying.
I totally agree with him about the refs and how he thinks it should be done. That would make it go so much more smoother. Those 5+ minute reviews take the life out of the game.
Rod Brind'Amour is developing into a great coach, but he isn't 'one of the best' just yet. His current coaching record doesn't come close to supporting that, but this is just his 5th year. IMO, this is his best year yet. I'm amazed how the team has overcome so many key injuries and make it to the semis. Unbelievable how good they are playing without Svechnikov and Pacioretty. Losing those 2 would have crippled most teams. Brind'Amour spent most of his career as a minus player. I guess he changed his view when he started coaching because he has everyone buying into the 2-way game.
And yes, I like the review thing, that would save so much bullshit and arguments between fans. But, they need to also be able to step in for blatant missed calls as well, much like they do if a puck enters the net unnoticed.
Good for the Canes believing in their system and players they have even with the injuries. Didn't trade draft capital or prospects and hurt long term future at the deadline. All the teams that loaded up big time are eliminated already. Wish the Canucks could be ran like the Canes instead of being the worst run franchise in the league.
Well it's not shocking lol. Because his son isn't having any success... he's nearing his mid 20s, and hasn't even touch NHL ice. He has long ways to go.
@@Juniperberry9 Lol.. That's not how you define success.. Especially when your father was a monster in the NHL, and OBVIOUSLY the kid clearly has the exact same asperations. I can promise you, if he never makes it in the next level, when his son is a 60+ years old, they will be disappointed in themselves.
Rod isn’t a good coach. He just plays the trap. Sit back and take what the other team gives you. That isn’t hockey. That’s why the canes blow. That’s why anyone can come in and excel. They have no actual good players. Watch Aho he loses the puck frequently. Can’t cycle well down low. They just get their opportunities by trapping and then whoever gets the most ice time scores the goals.
This is the coach & GM the leafs should be throwing that Babcock money 💰 they can throw Willy nilly at imho, been so consistent, plus if they did, he’d probably bring Slavin across get rid of JT which is just what we need, that and one of the most important positions we should also get Brodeaur, Roy or Hasek as a goalie coach to 1. pick the right starting netminder & 2 to develop backup Woll!
I agree with reviewing penalties after they're called but his recommended approach will never happen. Getting rid of linesmen on the ice and not having the refs go in the corners or behind the net is an awful idea. It's clear he's never officiated lol
But the refs handed them a pen shot for nothing, great stick lift. if your gonna cry do it for both sides, not just you. Enough whinying about refs get over it. They gave canes calls, miss those same calls for the devs and vice versa.
@@BacobJarnes you talk like I really care, what I didn't like is ol Rod talking like a working class hockey hero, he Played for a team that their moto was "Whatever it takes", yep they sure did whatever it takes...if that game were a movie they would have been the villain resorting to unscrupulous tactics to win, running the goaltender is an offense that will send you straight to hell :)...and cope. Really, that's the best you got...don't bother replying loser

40:55 - that look over directly into the camera when Rod said that.... perfection.
We are so lucky to have Rod as our coach in Carolina.
One of the best coaches currently coaching 🎉
💯
Arguably THE best
@@willmooneyham1842 I think so but I also realize I am not familiar with lots of coaches.
Rod seems like a great coach..he gets max effort from all his players they seem to respect him and buy into the system, even with a ton of injuries the canes are still competitive
Erik Haula didn’t buy into it. There’s a reason he got pummeled in their last matchup 😂
And that’s why Haula gets booed when he comes to Carolina as a visiting player
@@ChillBlinton and haula is 0-3 against the canes the last three years 😂
Great player. Philadelphia loved this guy
I think there's something to it when a coach has played at an elite nhl level too. Probably a different level of respect. Tocchet seems to have the same effect on his guys
As a Canes fan, not a game has gone by where I didn't feel lucky we took a chance on giving him a shot.
I'm not a canes fan but rod is the man. Would be cool to see him win the cup as Carolina coach too. Has anyone ever won it as a player and coach for the same team?
Mad respect to Rod. I wish my fav team had a coach like him.

Great coach, great person. Glad to see people learning what a great area this is to live and work in (current State government shennanigans aside).

@jacobfleenor1714 I went back and looked at his stats I feel like in my head he stopped playing in like 2005 lol. Guy was a machine
Guy is so humble. What a bad ass hero.
I LOVE Rods idea for referring changes just look at what the XFL done his plan could 100% be done and held better accountability of the game.
Cool interview with Rod Brind’Amour of the Carolina Hurricanes
Rod is currently the best coach in hockey.
Rod is such a fun interview to watch
favourite player. legend.

Love Rod, what a great interview!
Stunning, thanks you from the ather side of the pond. This was just the best
Holy f**k! I want to play for Rod and I can barely stand up on skates!
I hated this guy when he beat the Oilers in '06. But man, does he seem cool. Good for him and Carolina.
Imagine the quality of hockey if we could clone Rod and have him coach every team?
It crushed me when he was traded from Philly. It still crushes me knowing he will likely never coach for us either...
We never traded him once he came here. He won the Stanley Cup here. He retired as a Cane and we raised the banner.

@@sweetwater156 not tryna bring any cane on cane violence it’s all love i just felt that commented was pretentiously worded
I love our coach
I love how he always puts his players first when handing out accolades.
He's friends with Nuge: Ryan Nugent -Hopkins. They run a charity golf tournament every summer in Campbell River, B.C.
Amazing interview, awesome job!
Rods one of the best! He is right tho, it's pretty cool to have a sold out game on a Tuesday night💯These Canes have come a long way!
Rod's take on Referreeing is amazing. Man do I wish this was the case 😂💯
Best coach in the NHL, and that's from a Pens fan.

Love to see Rod at some in Ottawa if he ever leaves the cains and sure that would be a place he would go
Rod is the Cornerstone to our franchise. We love him.
We need someone like this in Boston
Brind'Amour is right about the referees. He was a great player and is a great coach. He was and is my favorite because of his work ethic.
Should be in the HOF already.
Worst trade the St. Louis blues ever made
I totally agree with him about the refs and how he thinks it should be done. That would make it go so much more smoother. Those 5+ minute reviews take the life out of the game.
Now this is a coach!!!
I look forward to the statues that will be built in my city of this man. It’s an honor to have him lead our team.
Love Rod he was my kind of player.
Rod's Reffing Rant: 34:13
Love these to men! Rod the bod seems really humble untill you make a mistake haha 😂
Rod is the best.

people with characteristic faces have an initial bonus with me.
Raleigh does not deserve Rod. This guy is effing fantastic. There a few programs which deserve a guy of his character, integrity, and class.
Let's go to Chilliwack chiefs His son played for the chiefs my home team
He's totally baked... Lol
Interesting hearing about his past. I like watching these types of interviews with retired players, some good stories.
And yes, I like the review thing, that would save so much bullshit and arguments between fans. But, they need to also be able to step in for blatant missed calls as well, much like they do if a puck enters the net unnoticed.
How much can we pay him to come over and kick the Leafs into shape?
you can make an offer after we win a cup with him as coach- Canes Fan
He doesn't want to be an nhl coach. He only wants to be the canes coach
Good for the Canes believing in their system and players they have even with the injuries. Didn't trade draft capital or prospects and hurt long term future at the deadline. All the teams that loaded up big time are eliminated already. Wish the Canucks could be ran like the Canes instead of being the worst run franchise in the league.
ROD too much clothing. dude is in maaaad shape
Shocking to hear that an NHL coach's son is having success at hockey 🤯
Well it's not shocking lol. Because his son isn't having any success... he's nearing his mid 20s, and hasn't even touch NHL ice. He has long ways to go.

can Devils somehow lure Rod to coach them after winning the Cup with Canes? He will do wonders with that team
Lindy Ruff is a good coach. Team was young and they'll get better, good learning lesson for them.

I can't believe his team is losing to the crappy 8th seed wildcard team a terrible coach.

It won't be the Kraken and you guys gotta get by Florida first. Everyone keeps underestimating them and look what they've done.
