Podcast (Audio) Monty on The Cam and Strick Podcast

[Alicat]

Monty has a fantastic interview on the Cam and Strick podcast. Great stories and very candid.

I can see why both vets and younger players like him and why he’s respected across the league.

Can’t wait to see what he can do this season.

Please treat Monty well. Yall will be surprised how good he really is.

 

[Alicat]

Monty says that he spoke to Mike Babcock after he got the job and Babcock said Bergy's leadership is unparalleled. Also said that the leadership is well respected across the league.

Al MacInnis and Keith Tkachuk went to bat for Monty and brought him to St. Louis after Dallas.

 

[Alicat]

One other player who could thrive under Monty is Freddy. The St. Louis connection plus a system change.

Interview runs from 39:54 - 1:57:35 of the podcast

This is a great interview. Love the story about Monty finding a way to fit in, in Russia.

Love how candid he is all interview

 

[Flannelman]

Need to add to my list

 

[Mr. Make-Believe]

Great podcast.

I don’t know if it will translate to success, but damn if Monty isn’t just a supremely likeable dude. I’d be rooting for him anywhere… I’m just happy it’s in Boston.

 

[Bruinaura]

I completely forgot that he is credited with nicknaming the Legion of Doom, which was the line that got me into watching hockey. I need to watch some old highlights on YouTube again.

Also didn't realize he is fluent in French. Thought it was funny that he and Bergeron started out speaking French to each other and ended in English lol.

Same here. There are some media members that need to listen to this interview and then apologize to Monty.

 

[Gordoff]

Since he was in Dallas I've heard/read people saying that he's a great coach, intelligent, and a really nice guy.
He's so earnestly open and astute. Very worldly and open to learning and trying new techniques.
Just very impressive!

Jansen makes the podcast almost unlistenable but they get almost any interview they want. Strickland is really good. They had Edwards on a while ago, Lucic, Krug, Frederic, Esposito, Macavoy, Savard and just a few weeks ago Claude as well. Probably a few other Bruins and ex that I’m forgetting.

Didn’t know much about him but very likeable to me after listening.

 

[TorontLoL 67]

That was a good episode. The "presented by Hair Club" right next to Monty's head in the pic is ironically hilarious haha.

Yeah - the anti climate change and tax dodging stuff at the start almost ended it for me before they even got to the interview (no politics)

I don't think climate change is political.

That's like saying the sun coming up tomorrow is political.

Used to be, but these days everything is political, so not going to go there. Just a comment on the podcast

 

[Aussie Bruin]

Good interview. Monty seems like a really decent guy, and one who is able to balance being a positive people-person with the need to sometimes more firmly instil discipline and accountability. He's funny too, and tells a good story. My impression is he has some similarities with Cassidy, and some clear differences. Looking forward to seeing what he brings to the table with the Bruins.

Being willing to open by wading into the mire of Quebec politics also tells me he's a brave man!

 

[mikelvl]

I think Monty will prove to be a great coach. But it will come down to the 'groceries' that the Sweenius has provided him to work with.

I think Strickland is a bit of a fanboy but a decent podcast nonetheless.

I wish him the best, but if he does a good job, good chance he'll probably be off to Montreal like Claude when they do fire him.

He is from Montreal, although he's been in the States for much of his adult life.

 

[mikelvl]

Just listened, awesome, I think the B's got a good one. Easy to listen to.

Scott McLaughlin with a story about this podcast. Hmmmmm. Hi Scott.

 

[ODAAT]
