Him not knowing what the griddy is makes me like him even more. W zadorov
What is it? The host just said it's from college football, without explaining
@@somekindoftactics Justin Jefferson popularized the dance, he does it whenever he scores a touchdown. He started doing it in college, he does it in the NFL now for the Minnesota Vikings.
@@Ishkur23 thanks
What a beaut. Re-sign this man
Extremely well spoken. Love that he took ownership of that bad hit resulting in a suspension this year. He's learned from it.
Z has been everything we've needed for a while. His presence and physicality is something we've been missing for a while. Hoping we re-sign Big Z and hope he stays a Canuck. Everyone plays bigger when Z and Dak are in the lineup, he's been an awesome addition.
his best line was from another interview when asked about a road trip to Nashville:
Interviewer: 'How was Nashville?'
Z: 'It's not my type of town'.
Interviewer: 'You don't like cowboy boots?'
Z: 'I left my cowboy boots in Calgary'.
that's a song title right there
Really well spoken. I admire his accountability
I was not expecting him to be this well spoken. But then he’s been in the league for what 11 years? His English is amazing, I want him to stay in Vancouver. Please!!
he gave it away sayin wife loves it in van and has his family is here therefore offer him a extension of his contract he really likes the coaches he'll sign
Would love to see him stay long term if the contract is right.
He also played junior in OHL. Scouts say he always worked hard on his English even back then
Knowing that he speaks up for Ukraine just elevated him 100 fold in my eyes.
I really respect Zadorov's humility, evident in this interview and his responses- a sign of balance and wisdom.
Seems like a very honorable guy. He seems straight up. Pay dat man his money.
What a complete beauty Big "Z" is !! Great character, and a massive physical presence.
this guy is a beauty, should make a podcast lol
Thank you for asking my question Scott Oake and I loved how Zadorov answered the question. I too dislike how clean hits = fights nowadays. But Nikita is a beast on the ice. I was streaming about the Canucks game and my phone was blowing up from friends that saw my question being asked on HNIC After Hours. I love having Zadorov on our Canucks and I really hope he re-signs and stays in Vancouver for a long time. He's the player we need and want on our team.
Trev, hope we can find the money to resign him for a few years, he really has become a big part of the team, both literally & figuratively.
@@tlevans62 exactly. These types of players are rare and once you have one, it’s time to keep him.
Absolutely love him he's like Chara but a bit better.
@@canucksfan2024 we have to bring him back!
They can’t afford him.
I just love this guy
So glad he’s on our side
I hope he likes it’s here and finds a way to sign
Just an awesome guy
Zadorof stated in an interview with a Russia reporter that he's against Russian aggression so you have to admire his values and his courage.
Did he mention how he feels about nato aggression?
@@Koz4concern яйки зажаты, 11 лет уже там. Язык уже шерстью оброс у 🤡
@@user-nz9zg3eu3raw you mad?
Great insight into big Z, the person. Articulate and well spoken. Hope he is in a Canucks jersey beyond this season and many years to come.
Phenomenal interview, Zadorov just made a fan for life
Zadorov is everything Tyler Myers should be. He actually is quite mobile but his physical play is outstanding. DJ Big Z and Jules are beasts on the blueline. Love his character on and off the ice and the Canucks should resign this man.
The skateboard comment 😂
Just a class act. Hope he is with Canucks long term.
Love Zaddy! Awesome player, even more awesome person!
Russian Canadian accent is wild
Never heard him talk much before. This guy is so great, promote this man.
this is such a great interview/conversation! really appreciate the content.
He doesn’t say what he thinks. He thinks and then speaks. He’s very intelligent and hits like Scott Stevens but cleaner
What an amazing player for the Canucks, exactly what this team needs, and an awesome person on top of that- impeccable taste and playing heavy, clean hockey. Takes a lot of courage to speak up about his opinions supporting Ukrainian people, very respectable for someone in his status. All-around here should have an A and I hope he stays a Canuck for life!
Great interview for people to get to know him. Really appreciate him.
Even after all these years, I still miss having Z on the Avs. Fun to watch on the ice and awesome human being.
Love this guys physical game. Exactly what the Canucks need for playoff hockey. Great addition to the team, lock him in for a few years. Worth every penny.
I'm happy Zadorov is with the Canucks. A tough player with integrity.
Great interview with Z, a force to be reckoned with on the ice gentleman off the ice😊
bro looks like a 1940s gangster lolol
Fantastic dman for us!! Glad we got him!!
Great personality, and brings a style of play the Canucks have been sorely missing!
Scott Oake and After Hours is great. Much more than just the hockey game.👍
Sign this man to a six year deal extension please.
love him so much.
Love this guy. Solid dude. Stands up for what’s right. 💪🏾
What a gem!
Задоров красавчик!
"It's no time to dance now". Amazing.
You must a took a skateboard here
Classic!
Guy thought he was about to get a compliment for wearing kids shoes as a 60yr old... 😂
Stand up guy, love having him as a Canuck. He'll be a difference maker in the playoffs.
Nikita Zadorov - Molodchik ! ..💪✊️
Why no CBC Hockey Night in Canada towel? Poor guy had to use his hand to wipe his sweat.
Such a beauty
His english is fantastic. Excellent player. He should be a great addition to Van.
The Canucks will be less of a team if they don't resign him. His physical presence is why his teammates play bigger than they really are.
I love after hours, i still remember the first time i ever watched after hours they had teemu selanne on in vancouver or calgary iirc
Z has quickly become one of my favourite canucks ever
I gotta get me a #91 flying skate jersey
Resign the man!
What a beaut! He give this team the grit they needed, notice how teams aren’t taking runs at the star players anymore! Bcuz they know they’ll have to deal with him
Beauty music selection
Wooooow really nice guys and well spoken and speak with a good mind set ..one of the best post game interview I saw …and love the way he talk about the Griddy lollll😂😅…..and was not worried to say that yzerman was is favourite player after that ……and for all people young generations take possession to talk about politics like I’m……..love the way he and plan to talk and the procedure he took to talk about The War in Ukraine 🇺🇦 !!!!!
Nice interview very interesting nice guy very good English
Forever a flame 🔥🔥🔥 Good luck Big Z!
Is it just me or does this guy sound super well spoken....
So refreshing to hear a man who’s second language is English, to not say um, um , like , umm every other word
Zadorov outclassed these interviewers!
Nils Hoglander is a from a 30-people village? LOL!
SIGN THIS MAN !!!
Finally a nhler that is real ...van is lucky to have him...sure he will have Russian comments but they are jealous of him ...living the north american way
We wish him well. Let him enjoy the woke indoctrination of his beautiful daughters.
@@vulgarisopiniowhat does woke mean
@@Bxyxox Woke is an adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) meaning "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination". Beginning in the 2010s, it came to encompass a broader awareness of social inequalities such as racial injustice, sexism, and denial of LGBT rights.
@@vulgarisopinio ну надеюсь ему будет приятно, когда доченька заявит ,что она теперь сыночек.
Canucks have to get this guy signed!
Z, what a class act.
i really want the canucks to keep him forever
sign this brother please!
Z being the Locker room DJ is friggin awesome. Go Nucks
Zaddy daddy for prime minister
Beauty
Yeah @KempnerCanucks !!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
he can skate, and his other defenders will lift him to the levels the canucks need
Suit game = A1
Big Z brings physicality and swagger to the Canucks which will be more important when the games become more important.
Miss big z in Calgary
i'm trying to be really fair and clean... most of the time.
Resign this dude now. Such a personality
He is so well spoken in English
Why do you seem so surprised?
@@iphn3794 Because English is hard for Russians to pick up, ya goof. But yeah, if you know he's lived here since age 17, it's not super surprising.
His parents should be proud !
As a Red Wings fan myself i like Zadorov a lot.. the type of defenseman the Red Wings NEED.. but ya gotta chill on my boi Jake Walman😅.. that griddy is impressive..
🎉no wars!
Asking him about the Griddy was cringe af
RE-SIGN THIS MAN
❤❤❤
Big Z. Hell yes.
He better stay with the Canucks!!!
Big Z is our new Myers but even better. Hope he sticks around
Wild spoken! Resign him Patrick
Sign this guy over Myers. Hope they find a middle ground.
Size and hands
Sign this man lol
How can u not love big Z
Canucks, pay this man.
He did not just say Zaddy
Good interview. Raymond's reaction to that hit was embarrassing and I hate seeing it, bad hit or not.
Love big Z
Big Z is the man. Resign him immediately!
"Worst dresser on the team? I'm not gonna throw anyone under the bus here, I'm not gonna name names, I'm not gonna share it, maybe Nils Hoglander though" - Nikita Zadorov
I love this guy. I really hope they are able to resign him.
keep BIG Z in Big V
5:42 what a stupid question
