- Game 6 between the Quebec Nordiques and the Montreal Canadiens. An intense match featuring epic line brawls and goalie fights. Absolute mayhem broke out in the match popularly referred to as the Good Friday Massacre.
- Sport
I really miss the Battle of Quebec. This game is my favorite playoff game of All time and I'm a Sabres fan since 1975.
As a native Montrealer here who lived till 1993 there the Nordiques/Habs rivalry was the most intense. We hated the Nordiques!!!
It was as intense a rivalry as the Maple Leafs Habs rivalry that my dad told me aboot.
Hated the Bruins and Flyers also but the Nordiques, 🎉
People outside Quebec have no idea how much these two teams HATED each other, a reflection of the animosity between the two cities. It was on a whole other level than any other NHL rivalry. In rural Quebec, Montreal was considered a city of rich urban elitists, while in Montreal, Quebec City was considered a town of uneducated pompous rural yokels. And seeing most players in this series grew up in Quebec, it explains why both teams were so desperate to win.
I'm from Petrolia and same age as Hunter brothers. We knew that angle as well.
Thanks for explaining it. I'd heard this before, but didn't quite understand it as they were both francophone Quebec cities.
Wasn't Montreal 50-50 French speakers and English speakers, with most of Quebec's English speaking population residing in or within 50 kilometers (30 miles) of Montreal?
@@altfactor Yes. Many people in Quebec City considered Montrealers as traitors to French culture. On the other side, Montrealers thought of people in Quebec City as basically French hillbillies.
if this wasnt an elimination game it whould b super entertaining and funny...the way hockye should b....they won series nywase apaprantly
The Organist is the real MVP of this game!
1st star!!!
@rico auroch Thx Where do I get Nordiques Blue or Flames Stern 22 or Titov Zalapski Jersey in Berlin Germany? In Stores not Online?!?
@rico auroch I yield to no one in my admiration of Diane Bibaud, but you're a few years early. She didn't become Forum organist until 1987.
That said, I have no idea who the guy was in 1984 -- and I was at this game.
I was the organist at that game.
My name is Luc Perusse. I was 22 years old at that time.
Bibeau would never hab been able to do this.
She can’t even join the National Anthems singers not being able to play them in different keys!!!
@@LucPerussewow! Good job!
Canadiens fans don't like the Maple Leafs, hate the Flyers and REALLY hate the Bruins -- but we have NEVER hated a team like we did the Nordiques. Besides fighting over the affections of the same province, the rivalry extended to so many other levels: big city vs. small city, Molson vs. O'Keefe, federalist vs. separatist, even English vs. French to a degree -- not to mention Dale Hunter making a career out of being an underhanded, back-stabbing stick artist who never, ever dropped the gloves.
Players and coaches were as caught up in all this as much as anyone, and the Good Friday massacre marked the rivalry at its most intense. Lemaire and Bergeron loathed each other, which was apparent in their post-game comments. Looking not the least bit celebratory, Lemaire strongly implied that Nords players deliberately targetted Montreal defencemen in the brawls, hoping to get them out of the game, one way or another (only 5 were dressed). Meanwhile, Bergeron made no bones about accusing the Habs of using grinders and backup goalie for the purpose of taking out his stars.
Hamel, incidentally, never played another game that mattered. But it wasn't Sleigher's sucker-punch that ended his career -- he took a puck in the eye in an exhibition game the following season.
Alain Côté goal was not good.
Aha
Was war den vorgestern und gestern Osloer Heinz Galinski im Wedding65 los gewesen Jharen oder Dzimmy Dzimmy, hab so gehört yayaya?!?
Weiß jemand wie es Mago Magic geht? Und wie Kyrill Relikh und Ivan Galvanchak aus Weißrussland aussehen? Oder Dmitry Kvartalnov, den gabst doch bei NHL 95 auch, würde mich mal interessieren, ZigZag,
I really miss this rivalry! It was truly the greatest rivalry in Hockey! Even more so than Habs/ Bos or Tor. When the Hab played the Nords it was always a great game! It's too bad Giuseppe Bettmano can't see past the border when handing out new franchises! Winnipeg got lucky to get back in when they did! I don't believe Bettmano will ever put another franchise in Canada! there are too many hotbeds of hockey like Santa Fe N.Mexico, or Tuscaloosa, Alabama that Bettmano would rather see have NHL hockey rather than somewhere like Quebec City! I doubt if Bettmano even knows where Canada is! All Bettmano knows is that the Canadian dollar is worth .30 cents less than the American dollar and that is all he cares about! Bettmano is selling hockey to the highest bidder, namely Corporate America! What Hockey Canada should do is tell the NHL that Canada is leaving the NHL, create a ten team Canadian Hockey League,it can be done, re-claim OUR Stanley Cup, have players that go through Canadian Jr ranks play a minimum of ten years in Canada before they can play in "Hooterville", the USA! Where would the NHL be without the 60% or so Canadian players? Canada has to get rid of the taint and the reek of Giuseppe Bettmano!
You need to get rid of Trudeau first along with his insane taxes.
@@williamlacombe8958 Péladeau being a literal idiot doesn't help
I'd rather see the Nordiques back and I'm a Bruins fan in Toronto - Bettman would rather have an NHL franchise in Bumfuck, Idaho!
*2:59** first fight*
*1:13:48** siren and start of the unforgettable night*
1:22:27 *here "she" goes again!*
It was a warm night and a holiday which meant outdoor drinking for us.
We hung out at our local dep and the clerk who we knew let us watch the game and drink beer. We were all 17 but the drinking age in Quebec was just a suggestion, lol.
The early 80's were a tough time for the Canadiens, the 83-84 team was horrible but they got hot late and the club played above their talent.
An incredible night, probably drunk Molson Export, smoked alot of darts at the Provisoir on CSL road in NDG.
Best of the best! Happy Good Friday, its not a Good Friday without Canadiens n Nordiques battling it out 😊
Thank you so much. I really appreciate it. Shouts from Mainz, Germany!
I like the history games... very good upload quality
I have it on dvd for history of the Montreal canadiens
I lived in northern New England at the time on Canadien border. First off going to the Forum was always an incredible experience and for many chic Montreallers a glam date night....regarding the rivalry this was the province of Quebec bragging rights. The intensity of the games played and especially the playoff games was beyond any of the other rivalries the Canadiens had....the two teams really disliked each other...although they respected each other...after the brawls in this game the Canadiens caught fire with 5 unanswered goals and the noise blew the roof off the building...would be nice if they brought NHL Hockey back to Quebec City!
Still love those Nordiques sweaters!
I watched this on USA Network on Good Friday 1984! What a game that was!
*A bunch of us were at a winter-camp type seminar, all teen-agers, watched this with another group from Toronto region who had no clue wtf we were all riled up for..*
Me too. I would love to find that feed of the game.
It was my 24th birthday and I had 6 tickets to that game for me my future wife and 4 other friends and needless to say the best birthday ever!! PS- we partied like it was 1979 after the game😜
Man oh man I remember the rivalry between these two teams. 🇨🇦
This is actually not a bad school assignment
I remember watching this live... hahahahaha... took 30 minutes to sort out the penalties! Great Rivalry! Calgary vs. Edmonton was just brutal as well...
That hook around the neck on Shutt near the end of the game and according to the announcer the ref was "looking the other way". Priceless!!
What a crowd!!
This is gold 🇨🇦🏒
The Nordiques must be brought back...this is all the proof you need!
They should have included the handshakes.
I miss the days when fights like this were common.
Mickey Redmond sounds so old even in 1984! love him, great commentary here
Down 0-2, 5 straight 3rd period goals by the Habs the real story of this game.
Bouchard just totally fell apart.
@@CinemaDemocratica the misconducts and game misconducts cost them defencemen and key forwards (p stastny and dale hunter) before the 5 goal third
Damm this game got chippy real early 3:00 mark. I remember watching this as a 8 year old on the good ol' USA Network. They had a picture of the aftermath of one of the fights in the local sports page, mind you a non Ice Hockey market at the time (SF Bay Area)
Watch Bruce Hood let the game get out of control. Used to happen when he refereed lacrosse in Ontario as well.
*Bruce Hood sure fucked up control of this game, instead of keeping the ejected players OFF THE ICE, he let everyone back on at which point they felt they'd nothing to lose, and the rest is history*
Then there was the goal called in the Campbell Conference finals that wasn't supposed to be a goal against the North Stars. That didn't help his cause any.
@@bigdrew565 yes!! forgot about that one!
@@raccoon874 yeah, I didn't even know about it. I found out about it when I was reading about this incident. Everyone used to talk about how great an official that Bruce Hood was, but you're only as good as your latest fuck up.
I miss the Nordiques. Quebec City should have been awarded an expansion team instead of Vegas. As long as Bettman is around, we will never see the Nordiques return either by expansion or relocation.
Hockey have absolutly nothing tho do in the middle of the desert in Vegas
what exactly did Bettman do to stop Quebec from getting a new expansion franchise?
@@clubhousemethe business class of quebec are not big enough to fund it equal to the rest of thr league.
Wonderful to see the players engaging in one another. No tablets/ipads on the bench! What a difference compared to now
Canadiens were lucky they didn't lose more d-men in the tumult, only dressing 5, and losing Hamel in the fight. Robinson seemed like he played 40 minutes this game. Losing Peter Stastny and Dale Hunter in the brawl changed the tide for the Nordiques. This was a great game and the pinnacle of animosity between the two teams, who went at it again in 1985, and 1987, before meeting for the final time in 1993. Jacques Lemaire didn't play his former linemates, Lafleur and Shutt, much before the brawl I noticed.
He had no choice after.
When hockey was at its best
not sure about that... so much more international talent now... non-whites also... faster pace too...
This game sealed Bruce Hoods fate
WDYM?
And what about for John D’Amico & Bob Hodges?
I remember clearly Louis Sleigher's COWARDLY sucker punch on Jean Hamel.
Wow! What an incredible battle!
It’s crazy watching these players on the ice without helmets O_o
This is a instant classic
Could you upload the 2013 playoffs?? If you can that would be dope!! 🙏🙏
Missed the good stuff. Living in Winnipeg, CBC gave us the EDM/CGY game. Thanks for this.
What happened to Dick Irvin? He was in the booth and then we never heard from him again.
That was a classic brawl alright. It's too bad we had to suffer through Bob Cole doing the play-by-play
I enjoyed Bob Cole and their broadcast team. Do you remember Howie Meeker?
How would you compare Bob Cole to any of today's broadcasters? Imho there isn't anyone today that attempts any type of play by play that can compare to anyone back then and that includes Bob Cole.
@@marilynhynes5414 I enjoyed Bob Cole very much. He had great passion in his delivery and loved the game💪❤️
This game was a real donnybrook.
Back then when teams hate each other
As usual, Cherry tried to over-emphasize the importance of fighting, making the awkward case that it woke up the Canadiens.
Ask the Nordiques how it worked out for them -- the brawling cost them their top centres, Stastny and Hunter. No great mystery how the game turned around from that point.
Ya, auf yeden
Dieser Jason Stanton FB Kenshiro JayStar True Delije, der ist voll cool, yayaya. 6A Strong!!! Yogi, Tony, Refik, Turiner39 Jharen Kravalchuk, ist voll cool A.Meyzer usw kann bestätigen, wirklich und in echt yayaya!
Ab 1min der is der Beste!!!
This rivalry was at another level. A great rivalry like Bruins-Habs, to name just one, was not even close to the battle of Quebec. Nordiques-Habs rivalry was way more than just hockey. It wasnt just hate another team because it's fun to hate them as a fan, it was something too close to real hate. Far from real hate, but in the same time too close for a sports event. It's hard to explain. We all began to understand it was too much after that Good Friday game.
Kasparaitis kam nach Mauer erst, oder? Clint Malarchuk, Mogilny, oder Bogy?
Rest In Peace Bob
Любимое канадское занятие ,проверять загиб клюшки.
Miss the Nordiques
Back when teams had to go back on the ice to go to the locker rooms. This would never happen today.

Every time I see the penalty box, why wasn't Claude Mouton the PA Announcer for this game?
Hunter Dale Mark ? Name changed?
Meine Nhl Jersey s sind da 26 Nordiques und 31 Price Canadiens!!!!! Price = Preis in German
Isn't odd that a game between quebecois team the anmouncer in the forum only speak english. I mean we are in quebec, what happened?
britain fought harder than france...?
The goaltenders look so small back then in comparison to today.
I fuucking looove this shit men
Preussen Jounes?
It’s really strange watching a non-butterfly goalie. It’s just so much easier to score
thank you
Nordiques would have won the cup in '96 if they didn't move to Colorado. Just as they were getting good-- GONE. Miss that team.
Except there's not a chance in hell that the Canadiens would have traded Patrick Roy to the Nordiques while they were in Quebec.
Didn't the Nordiques actually go out of business in 1995 and the team's player and management contracts were assigned to an expansion team in Denver that began play in the fall of 1995?
@@altfactor No, the Nordiques franchise shifted lock, stock and barrel to Colorado.
Exactly!!! & Eric Lindros would have had his name in the CUP had he wasn’t such a prima Donna!
The fact that Quebec doesn't have a team anymore just goes to show how they're not really part of Canada.
Canada is basically a branch of the uk. Its hard for catholic quebecois to feel pride in canada. I wish we were part of the canadian constitution.
What happened to Steve Penney?
Was traded to Winnipeg after Patrick Roy stole his job. The Canadiens got Brian Hayward who was with the Canadiens until 1990.
Stastny game misconduct was a joke.
wake up Hamel
@3:35 Oh, you have no idea
Miro Trikot?
Ahhh. How hockey should be. Line brawls. Brother vs brother. Look! No glass surrounding penalty boxes. Glass around the rink low.
Kind of amazing to watch (e.g.) the Canadian National Anthem, and realize that none of the people that I'm looking at have the remotest *idea* of what's about to happen.
how many penalties total during this game?
If it were nowadays. the entire game would be 1 on 1, with 20 ejections and 300 minutes in penalties.
QUE 119 PIM, MTL 103 PIM
Under today's rules, the game would have been called due to a lack of players.
As two full periods had been played, the game could have been declared a 1-0 Quebec victory, or maybe a no contest.
If the entire Nordique team left the bench why did only Hunter and Statsny face suspension?
NHL.COM shows this game was on 04/20/1984
Обеим командам следовало назначить поражения.По сути хоккея мы не увидели из-за 2-3 козлов-провокаторов,которые превратили игру в кулачное побоище.У "Квебека"все силы,в том числе эмоциональные, ушли на массовые драки и как следствие - поражение.
Two points to make..... this was NOT Bruce Hood's fault. He sent word to the dressing rooms informing them of who was ejected but the messenger screwed up and didn't deliver the notes to the Habs or Nords ! Also, Jimmy Mann, Quebec, and Perry Turnbull and Norm Baron, Montreal, were all scratched for this contest..... O_O Just imagine.
Das wusste ich selber auch nicht. Ist Andy Pettitte Franzose, lol? Clinton Malarchuk auch Game misconduct?
Clint! Grrr Sikte lange ey Sikte lange Julia Lange?
Grrrr

Those guys who left with about 10 seconds left in the 2nd period to go get a beer better have ran back to their seats or at least watched from the concourse.
Real,- Leverkusen? Talk
*1:39:50** Shutt 1st goal*
*1:45:00** Shutt 2nd goal*
*1:50:28** Green goal*
*1:53:09** Chabot goal*
*1:55:43** Carbonneau goal*
Bouchard's reaction after the Green goal was ... weird. Was he trying to complain that his own defenseman had screened him from a clear sight of the puck, or was he trying to say, "Look, coach, I've got nothing out here and I tried to tell you that three times before the game. This is what you get."
@@CinemaDemocratica *it was the perfect "AH BEN TABARNAC" gesture*
How did Carbonneau score short side or five hole?
Kind of ironic all this happened on 420😂😂😂
Заебись! И попиздились, и в хоккей поиграли. Люблю НХЛ :)
Put a hockey team back in Quebec we need more rivalries.
Putting a team in Quebec won't create a rivalry today. Too many boring wimps play nhl today. The 80's are gone. Will be a soft game yet.
That cheap-shot Louie Sleigher caused all the mayhem. Did anyone make him pay ?

Great battles before the NHL became totally "Americanised" - Montreal vs. Quebec, Montreal vs,.Boston, Montreal vs. Toronto, Montreal vs. Buffalo.
Imagine if Quebec won and forced a 7th game....
COULD SOMEONE PLEASE TELL ME WHAT YEAR THIS IS?
Looks like the Coyotes are done in Arizona...all fingers are pointing to Quebec. Awesome. :)
The NHL wants to keep a team in a big market like Phoenix.
And Quebec City isn't a big market, even for Canada. Go more than 30 kilometers (20 miles) outside Quebec City, and it's very rural and sparsely populated.
The best Quebec City could hope for is to get the Montreal Canadiens to play three or four home games a year in Quebec City.
And it STILL looks that way.
No chance they go to Quebec lmao keep dreaming.
The announcers ignored the numerous fights in the stands.
I had heard that were two dozen fans arrested for fights in the stands.
Of course they did. They will never give fan fights attention for fear of encouraging them
