    I love Iron Mike. Demands a 100% effort. I really enjoyed his time as coach of the Rochester Americans. Awesome team and Calder Cup champions. That team led the league in scoring and had five guys with over 200 penalty minutes. Very entertaining to watch.

    Man I am blown away by this interview. Had no idea all his actual hockey experience as a player plus all the things he did pre NHL. Unreal. Much respect to him.

    I worked at a pizza restaurant in high school in the Chicago area and the owner of the place was good friends with Al Secord. Al would stop in every other week or so and told me an awesome story of Keenan when they were both with the Hawks.
    In between periods, Keenan came into the locker room ranting and raving, chewing out players left and right. He spotted a five gallon bucket that was sitting on the floor and to exemplify his point, wound up and kicked the bucket. The bucket didn’t move and Keenan’s face turned bright red. His rant immediately stopped and he turned around and hobbled out of the room. The players howled with laughter. The bucket was filled with ice, which was obscured from Keenan by the lid. Keenan ended up breaking a toe.

    Chris you are becoming a really good podcast host and a wonderful ambassador for the Habs. Do keep it up!
    I actually met Martin St-Louis, Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton at a pub the night they beat Philly in MTL, right after Kent was on your show.
    I told Kent he was awesome on your show and begged that he do it again. He said he enjoyed it. Get that beauty on again!
    I would absolutely love it if you had him on 2-3 times per season. And maybe Jeff Gorton too!

    Keenan is such a great interview. His Belfour story was awesome. I was always curious what was said. His style of coaching is dated now but it was sure entertaining. He ruined my Canucks too, but he got us Todd Bertuzzi which ended up as Luongo down the road. Hard to get mad at that.

    Hopefully Chris and Tim are aware of the praise that us listeners of their podcast have for them. This is a tremendous show. Chris does a fantastic job of leading the interviews as Tim does as a co-host getting to know the personal side of these guests, going back to their beginnings but yet not being hesitant to give their opinions of them negative or otherwise.
    Another thought. I love the pairing of these two guys because you have the long time successful veteran of the NHL (Chris) and a young man that didn’t quite have the success, bounced around, different countries, fought hard for a chance. That is a great thing to have those two guys chatting with guests from two very different levels of success. Gives great perspective.

    @JImStarr-bn8zu 5 месяцев назад

    Keenan ... Why did you trade, Mike Gartner, at the trade deadline the year you and the Rangers won the Cup? Gartner was averaging 2.3 goals every 3 games during the season and at the time you traded him. Keenan (along with encouragement from Messier) let the Rangers top scorer go in a trade for Glen Anderson, who was averaging 1 goal every 8 games on the team he was with. Gartner deserved a Stanley Cup for his stellar career and due to his production with the Rangers that Cup year. It was a good ole' boys move by Keenan and Messier to bring on Messier's old Edmonton buddy, Glen Anderson, to replace Gartner so Anderson could win another Cup. I wish the Rangers front office would have let you go, Keenan, in March, knowing that you were going to win the Cup ... Would you have felt cheated if that happened to you, Keenan?

  • @carlbruun386
    @carlbruun386 4 месяца назад

    Mike Keenan lost a lot of respect for his classless handling of Trevor Linden in Vancouver. Linden is the real deal as a hockey player and human being, someone who gave 100 percent every shift and a respected captain in the locker room. Keenan seems to have matured and good for him, but he was a crazy brat for much of his career.

    He was abusive and a bully, and probably still is. Arguably worse than Mike Babcock. That people are condoning his coaching style just because he had a great record is disgusting! Today's NHL would not tolerate his bullying tactics, and the players would have told Biznasty about it to completely shutdown and cancel his ass, just like they did to Mike Babcock.
