Grew up in the 80s loving Knuckles. So happy that he got through some really tough years and cleaned up his life. I wish him all the happiness and hope he can keep up the great interviews for a long time.

Vous êtes un homme de coeur et de famille monsieur Nilan. L'invincible héros de tant de p'tit culs... qui sont devenus des hommes mais n'ont pas perdu leur admiration pour l'homme que vous êtes.

Great comments Chris , I totally am on same page. And congrats on your marriage

Always a realistic take on the Habs from Chris Nilan.

[@JoeSchemo]

Chris Nilan was more than a 'knuckles' type of guy for the Montreal Canadiens. Always like his give 100% for the team type of play.

EVERYBODY I talk to has the Habs wrote off as far as Makin the playoffs. WOOOOOWW!!! I say after acquiring Patrick and having a healthy dach. We're in easy😊😊😊😊😊

[@charlestessier7843]

Chris' comments go along the lines of what I've been thinking. How healthy are they going to be this season. The Habs just can't have a main guy in their plans on the shelf for almost a whole season like Dach was . Second, defensively it has to tighten up. Chris didn't mention a specific target the Habs have to strive for as far as cutting down on goals allowed is concerned overall. Forty to fifty fewer goals against would be nice as well as a DECREASE in SOG allowed of roughly 15%. Third: fair point about Laine. He has to want to change himself. Lastly, let me add this: they play in a killer division which includes Florida Panthers defending cup Champs and a Boston team that reloaded in the off-season. Prediction? I do think they will be in the hunt for the playoffs. Maybe they will at times occupy a spot especially early in the season but will miss out in the end.

[@JoeSchemo]

I am just guessing here , but I think Nilan was referring to the Montreal Canadiens minor league 'depth'. Not every player in pre-season is going to make the team , but wow , what potential 'call-ups' they have sitting in the wings.

[@gioscott2363]

Next time he's on we'll get the latest dating info on his father inlaw and complete extended family medical update.....I am looking forward to it.

[@jonathanduplantis1403]

They didn't sign Laine. They traded for him.

[@stephenrosenfeld833]

I know a few women who married guys they thought they could fix, usually with a bad ending. I hope Laine doesn't fall into that category.

Not making playoffs just yet. Detroit Buffalo Ottawa all ahead of Habs all made improvements and none of them made playoffs last season. Not only would they have to pass them, but do you see any of the other four playoff teams falling off that much. I don’t. Hoping for continued progress, but they must improve on special teams to turn some of those close or ot losses into wins and points.
