OT: Spittin Chiclets Interview of Mick Vukota

[PK Cronin]

Thought some of you might be interested with this interview of Mick Vukota even if you might not be fans of Spittin' Chiclets.



He gets into Al Arbour, a few of his teammates, and of course Mad Mike Milbury for a little bit. Definitely an interesting interview.

I'm assuming he talks about his natural hattrick? Time with Baumgartner as his teammate? Those two were bad mother f***ers for a couple of years.

He briefly talks about the hat trick but not about the details of it, more what he was thinking after the fact. His Milbury stories were good and he had nothing but positives to say about Arbour.

wow

I was missing a word when I wrote that.

Arbour = Good
Milbury = Bad

Gave a little insight into each guy and why he views them that way.

oh! Phew. I thought that was strange!

Good listen, appreciated the insight into both Arbour and Milbury. Lots of interesting little tales like about Gord Lane teaching him a lesson about waiting to drop the gloves until the other guy does - by challenging him to a fight and then spearing him in the chest!

Mick had some crazy Eyes!
I remember his rookie year when he had the Hat Trick. I was thinking is this kid a power forward?
lol he was a tough Dude.
Always a favorite

I used to have a VHS of NYI hockey fights. It was like 70% Vukota and Ken Baumgartner.

What a great interview. Such a great story-teller.

Amazing stuff. One of my favorites to date. Guys were built different in that era.

Mick looks like he could be Clarke Gillies younger brother.

gotta listen to this one, thanks for posting PK!

I'm curious about the Vukota-Baumer-NYR-Lafontaine, one of my fav NYI moments of all time. Right after the cups.
