Wow, Gorton on Marinaro and Hughes with Nilan. I think Chantal was a good hire.
Thought the same thing! It’s so easy being a fan when everything is so open and understood
helps that Knucks is an alumni and that the alumnis are welcome
@@ildarm Marinaro ain't one and he got the harder person to speak to.
Best hockey podcast on youtube currently!
nothings come close lol
I don't understand how this doesn't have hundreds of thousands of views! Aw well, the true Habs fans know about this legendary podcast! Just started it so I can't comment on it but I know it will be great as always
Bruh.. it’s been out 2 hours 😂😂😂
I really like Gorton, Hughes and Saint Louis!! It's motivating! I remember the Expos coach Felipe Alou! We loved it so much! And his coaching style was very dynamic! They were good years and now this new trio takes us to some very good times. Thank you very much Chris!
I miss MTL baseball....
Best interview ever Chris
What a fabulous, well thought out series of answers by Kent
Loved every minute of it.
Great interview Chris👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 The Habs are in really good hands with Kent Hughes at the helm!! Awesome 👍🏼👍🏼
I am so glad this is over an hour! Love your podcast Knucks!
1:16:09 my favourite part. Thanks for asking Hughes about the salary cap. Love his insight and the Patrice Bergeron story.
I think it would be great if you can get John Sedgwick on the podcast to go even deeper in understanding how the cap works and strategies that the organization is taking in managing the cap.
Great interview Knucks! 👍 and couldn't agree more this is this most promising version of the franchise we've seen in a long time. Go Habs go
great interview... its matter of time Montreal becomes a contender with this guy and gorto running the show
Thanks Knuckles! Awesome stuff bud. Thanks Kent and the Habs for this talk. J'ai adore la discussion 😀 I really like the Habs new take on being more transparent with the fans and media (proxy for the fans). I've never seen two upper level executives from the Habs, Kent and Jeff, get out there and do interviews like they do. It is very appreciated and It is so refreshing to hear directly from the decision makers. It makes the fan feel like they're really plugged into their favorite team instead of mainly just relying on constant speculation and rumors. I like how much emphasis is put into player development. As Chris mentioned, it is been far too long that Montreal's AHL club has stunk and haven't really had many prospects to call up that made any impact. Identifying under utilized young promising players from other teams, who are deep at certain positions, is key. I think Kent and Jeff have that sort of eye. Kent's passion for the game and his hockey "nerd-ness' shines through and I think Habs fans can exhale and look forward to some exciting times in Montreal. Allons y!
Fantastic interview! Great work!
Most of our great young players are from the former management team. Yes this years draft was excellent and maybe our best in years but Bergie did a good job here but our new management team is on another level it seems. Suzuki, Caufield, Guhle, Xhekaj, Harris, Farrell, Dobes, Mailloux are all from the past management team. We don't have to bash bergie to praise the new management team.
I think many people hate Bergie because he wasted Price's prime.
@@Elmirgtr I get that. Bergie should have gone and done some big moves that cost picks to get the Center we needed for years. I prefer our current management, but Bergie wasn't that bad and not nearly as bad as many state.
Thanks again Chris and Thank You Kent for taking all that time out of your busy schedule, much appreciated!!!
Kent is really charismatic which is not very surprising. Great job knuckles again
Very impressed with Kent Hughes.
Great job as usual Chris, i can't beleive the amazing guests you keep having on. You are better off now than your previous gig... if you know what i mean
Knuckles keeps delivering with awesome guests on the show, and great questions.
Mister Nilan : excellent one again ! Thanks a lot !
Chris great podcast. Enjoyed the insightful questions. Your honesty and no beating around the bush mentality draws out the best in your awesome guests. Thank you.
Nice job Chris. Really enjoyed this interview!!
Excellent interview. Learning so much via these podcasts. GHG
You are an excellent interviewer, Chris. You never fail to have your guests at ease taking about hockey and themselves. You aren't some polished question tosser. You know the "Show" and your guests warm up immediately as if in the dressing room, just talking. Hockey people are going to hear about you and want to be on. Top shelf stuff!
Wow 👌 Knuckles thank you that was a phenomenal 👏 episode. I got to tell you I agree 👍 💯 with 👍 Chris . What refreshing change with Kent ,and Jeff ,and the helm. Just listening to Kent so easy going ,but intelligent 👌. And I love everything they ve done ✔ here . Great 👍 decision making . And already we see a big improvement to the talent being drafted 👏 😏. M S L as well Great 👍 👌 hire. And I m so glad 😊 😃 to see the alumni welcomed again. That never should ve happened or been allowed to happen with the prior regime. You 👍 guys earned it . And the kids can learn a lot from you guys . An organization like 👍 this should never turn it back on it s alumni. Chantel doing a great 👍 job 👍 too. Finally we have an entertaining team again 👏, and I know it's just the 1 st year of the rebuild, but I m so impressed already with the improvement of this team. To me their already better than I expected, however I know we have a ways to go. It's been since Gainey was g m that I ve finally seen positives in the building of this team. And unfortunately, hes the last bright spot till now . And after that Serge ,but that Serge s time was a little if, but better than all these g m s till Gainey and Hugo . And still we haven't seen the Sam Pollock days since . Mind you ,I don't think they ll ever be one like Pollock. Gainey,and Hugo ,then S.Savard were as close as we got . But Hugo it's just the beginning so far their looking incredible. It's refreshing. I think these guys are going to make this team special again.
Excellent segment 🎉
Pretty amazing comments about Patrice Bergeron. Hopefully this is the type of character and commitment the Habs will engender under this leadership..
Chris another great show very informative great person .
Enjoying these interviews.
Chris is so good at asking questions, really obvious that he does his research prior to these podcasts.
This particular episode was particularly good.👍

Mr Chris, I'd like to thank you for these awesome podcast you deliver the fans ! Much love 👍 A proud Habs fan for life 👍 This podcast has gotten me a chance to know who you are . Being born in the 90s, I didn't have a chance. Thank you 👍
Great interview Knuckles! I don’t know what to say, other than thank you. Your interviews give us, the fans, much more insight to the management group and players which in turn, makes our love for the game that much stronger!
I’m only half way through the video…
And I don’t want that conversation to ever end
Great job Knuckels! Kent seemed very candid and relaxed.
Awesome Knuckles. That was cool
Great interview Knuckles!
Loved it, thanks Knuckles and Kent, but I was good for another 30 minutes 🙂
what a wonderful show christ you surprise me what a podcast felicitation
Great interview Chris! 690 holding you back, keep up the good work
Great interview Chris. The Habs are in good hands.
I really appreciated your comment on Borje Salming, but couldn't post to it. Good clip.. the guy was a warrior, and he would drive you nuts
What a great story about Bergeron and Marchant wonderful human beens
Great interview, why no media like rds\tsn watch and promote this ? Merci Knuckles!
Hughes is a freak from the Beac!
He coached my next door neighbor in Beaconsfield Brad Layzell
Thanks for sharing you have Bridge Fobia
Chris, I love all of your guests! Any chance that you can get Phil Esposito? He would make a great guest.
Hi Knuckles, very good interview, i love your podcast. Have you ever thought about giving on the ice and give Wi-Fi a few pointers to help him to stay on the edge, he did pretty good against Olivier, but the lost of balance wasn't one of your weakness, just wondering??
When you said "Wow why can't all these white people get along" it really resonated with me, as the child of immigrants, I can tell you that is one of the greatest observations you could possibly make. My dad always said you are the smartest enforcer because of the way you'd fight guys bigger than you. Your technique of grabbing the guys main arm's sleeve, is something I've emulated in a hockey scuffle, freaking genius they can't hurt you. Love your podcast! Keep it up!
Knuckles not to be outdone! 💪💪💪
I would have watched for another hour and a half for sure.
Great🎉🎉🎉🎉
Some how pickup Owen Tippet from Flyers!
Bergeron and Marchand have an honest and just hearts. we can all see it has blown out of control 11 mil to one player that eats up a salary cap for 1 player imagine when a team has 2-3 high level players gee that can create chaos over time in a hockey team. never forget it is a Team sport. Chris playing young today would get 2-3 million a year he would deserve it
Bergeron is one of those exceptional players that play his whoile pro career with one team. stanley cup or not.
Hi Knucks
I’m not gonna bash MB, only say that I feel the ceiling is so much higher with Gorton, Hughes and MSL.
John Ferguson SR. And Chris nylan 2 GOAT for MTL
Go habs go
the language issue is clearly exaggerated as a so-called problem
very strange that this thing is still brought up
Great podcasts. I tell friends to subscribe. I have learned much from watching
Chris. Get Caufield on
I really like Kent Hughes especially considering im from the West Island too. But at 16:08 when he says you cant sell cars if you dont know anything about cars, having sold cars for 7 years this is actually wrong. Sales is all about dealing with people and managing relationships, not your specific background / knowledge. If somebody truly believes you want the best for them, they will do business with you every time.
Hockey is hockey it doesn't matter if your french, english, black, chinese, russian as long as you can play
this team reminds me of the 84/85 team
you dont teach the kids how to win by losing
#gohabsgo
there should realistically be and i see no reason for it.that drafted players should get 15-25% of the cap taken away from the salary cap standpoint.not from their salary, only from the cap in nhl standpoint.and only for that teams drafted players.not free agents or anything else.
You didn't need to bring upon Mailloux. Did you forget your not on TSN 690? sellout move.
How can Nilan mingle with the team, if he is not vaccinated ?
Hope you're kidding!
@@molswi47 explain
I don't think you should talk about politcs , french english
I can respect that is your opinion - so then don't you see life is actually simple
Amazing podcast Chris.
I played against Northwood school in November 1978 and now, I'm soo happy Knuckles had returned to Boston by then, I think....
