Eric Lindros to participate in a Quebec talk show

[Passchendaele]

Lindros has said he would have gone to MTL, so it's not a language/Quebec thing.

 

[Jumptheshark]

Looks promising. He has been interviewed for Tout le monde en parle, which will be on Radio-Canada on Sunday night. I thought the photo was enough to create a thread

There are several out there of forberg in a flyer jersey not to mention his draft video

 

[CheldishGamibno]

Now it would be more impressive if you shopped him onto a team he never played for. Like the Nashville Predators.

There you go.

 

[ecemleafs]

what a beautiful jersey

 

[sr edler]

there it is! QUICK someone photoshop Forsberg in a Philly jersey!

Done. I photo shopped 12-year old Forsberg into a Flyers jersey. Took a lot of skill!

Is it Steve Begin on the right?

I'm sure you'll be in much better shape in your 40's.

I expect I'll be in much worse shape! Doesn't mean I can't poke fun at things. Lindros was always a big boy, and I appreciate the dedication it took from him to maintain such a chiseled figure during his playing career. Nothing wrong with letting it all go when you're enjoying your retirement.

 

[Bedards Dad]

Hope he goes on and says he's happy with his decision and would do it again.

 

[Gnashville]

I don't own photoshop so I had to do this in paint, hopefully its good enough for you lads.

I'm even better I can create an entire video of him scoring a GWG in Nashville

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

There you go.

eyes don't work here....

 

[Mike Mike Caron]

Yeah RDS is going to present a documentary about the whole saga, seems like a GREAT documentary and we all hate RDS. That's the reason why he's invited to the talk show.

It's not that hard to be thin in your 40's.

That doesn't actually make it better for Nordiques fans. Quite the contrary.

 

[Roksta]

Guy A Lepage asked him "If Marcel Aubut wouldnt have been there, would you have played for the Nordiques?"

Eric quickly replied : "Yes"

The beef seemed to be with Marcel Aubut and not with the city/organization/langage

A you believe him?

 

[Laveuglette]

I think this interview might change his image in Quebec.

 

[Laveuglette]

A you believe him?

Aubut is not exactly known as a good guy, many things on him have been published recently. It does make sense. We'll never know what happened between him and the Lindros family, but I tend to believe Big E on it.

 

[MakeTheGoalsLarger]

There was this rumor about Aubut trying to seduce Lindros' mother I heard like 10 or 15 years ago.

Then a few years ago Aubut gets on the news for groping women and has to resign from the COC. I thought it was pretty obvious at this moment why Lindros refused to play with the Nordiques.

Believe it or not, sometimes rumours happen to be true.

What I'll always Wonder is why that story never came to light earlier. Would've made many women feel safer at work.

I never heard "that" rumor. What I heard was Aubut calling Bonnie a Subban in French (...or something like that)... With Bonnie understanding what he said, because she understands French.

Is it Steve Begin on the right?

It is.

 

[Hockeyisl1fe]

Those jerseys are still some of the greatest. I want to go grab a Lindros Nordiques jersey now. LOL

Lets be honest... they're ugly as ****. I still love them tho .

 

[syc]

That doesn't actually make it better for Nordiques fans. Quite the contrary.

How does that make it worse? They had terrible ownership and a terrible team. He was valuable and used that to get out of a potential terrible 10 years.

I found it refreshing to see hockey player not act/sound not like a drone.

 

[KingsFan7824]

The 1993 1st Round Pick acquired in the Lindros trade was used to select Jocelyn Thibault, who in turn was packaged to get Patrick Roy from Montreal.

The Eric Lindros trade is the single biggest reason why the Avalanche won 2 Stanley Cups. Patrick Roy, Joe Sakic, Ray Bourque etc were huge, huge parts but the Lindros trade set that team up for the next decade with a player who became of equal caliber in Forsberg + a multitude of assets.

The 1st rounder was used for Thibault, who was traded for Roy, but it's not like they had any idea Detroit would blow Montreal out one night starting chain reaction, after the franchise moved from Quebec, which itself wouldn't happen for another 3 years after Lindros was traded.

There's no single biggest reason the Avs won. Trading Sundin for Clark, who eventually got traded for Lemieux, was just as big. Trading Nolan for Ozolinsh, for a team that had very little punch from the back end, was just as big. If Roy gets taken out after the 4th goal that one night though, history could be different.

 

[powerstuck]

**** Lindros and **** Guy A Lepage who hates the City and who hates everything Quebec City related. Them and their media campaign.

 

[Lurked4Yearz]

That's wasn't really Lindros, it was actually Norm Macdonald.
