Calling Stan a goon was a regrettable choice of words. He was a real team player and one of our favorites.

She should never have called Stan a goon,nor should she have talked about his personal life outside of hockey. Stan showed he is a true gentleman. She never followed hockey and it showed.

Wow, Stan handled this with a lot of class.

Stan is a warrior, leader, inspiration and a human being. He showed a lot of class in this interview. Tough when he had to be but he does have a huge heart and a loving family man. There is forgiveness in the world because he takes responsibility for himself.

I am a Habs Fan but full respect to Stan Jonathan. He was tough as nails and never backed down from anyone. He also was a good player not a goon. I wish him well and thank him for his efforts to the game.

Love this guy even more now after listening to him talk. Why? Because he is humble.

Stan Jonathan was an awesome player. He could play any style of hockey the opponent wanted to play. I can see why Grapes loved him.

Stan Jonathan was not a goon. The reporter did not look at his career stays. She looked at his fighting resume.the same with Chris Nilan he was not a goon either. Look at John wensink he was not a goon either theses guys could score goals

Even though I was Flyers fan, nothing but love and respect for lil Stan, what a class act. Nobody tougher pound for pound...

probably my favorite Bruin of all time, watched Mr Jonathan early in his career playing for the Petes ...

Stan Jonathan!! Great player; lots of goal. Fearless. Love this guy!!!!

Stan was the number one team player and without a thought he was like a honey badger to be in hand to help his team mates! Go Stan you where the BEST!

He was one tough Native Canadian just like those who played before and after him in the NHL...

toughest little bruin EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope Stan is well. We need to check on these guys now and than.

I am an old Ranger fan. Hated the Bruins and Jonathan back in the day. But always respected them and him. Respect Stan so much more now as he has shown himself to be such a humble and decent man.

Loved this guy. He scored and kicked arse!

He showed a lot more class that the chick that's for sure.

stan jonathan is a legend,the way the game was played in jonathans era and the way he beat the piss out of Dupont the back stabber 3rd man in in all fights,love u stan

No goon...toughest fighter to play the game.

Stan Jonathan was a very fine hockey player and a great lacrosse player. Too bad the reporter wants to talk about fighting.

Respect 🙏 to Stan...good player in any Era. ❤

Stan Jonathan was not a goon! Jonathan was that fierce Boston Terrier amongst the rest of the Big Bad Bruins.

Classy guy. No doubt about that. Still has a tough and grittiness. Well spoken. Bruin.

Stan is very likeable…Just a humble and down to earth man!

Great job Stan, I learned how to fight watching you.

She calls him a goon in the intro. What a dope.

This reporter is completely off side when she refers to him as a goon. Stan Jonathan handled this entire interview with class and professionalism, something that is sadly lacking in this reporter.

RAG fan here remember that era well - Stan was a real pain in the rear but would have loved to have him on my team. He mentions taking care of Rick Middleton and Jean Ratelle - worst trades in RAG history.

Stan Jonathan, Al Secord, John Wensink, & Terry O'Reilly - Lunchpail AC - they protected Ratelle, Middleton, Bourque, Park.

I'm not a Bruins fan, but I always had tremendous respect for the team and its overall organization. This certainly was one team the old "Broad Street Bullies" couldn't intimidate. Of note, I also agree with others here... Stan Jonathon was no "goon". He was a talented hockey player who took it upon himself to protect his fellow teammates while on the ice. Who can argue with that??

Much respect I have a new found Appreciation for him, I never heard Him speak… I love that he gives Praise, honor glory to our creator May Christ be with him and his situation! I will pray for him .. Anyone else?

He broke my heart when he defeated Pierre Bouchard. But as we say that's part of the game. He seems a real nice guy and his strenght was astonishing. Long life Stan Jonathan from a big Canadien fan.

Most "goons" don't score hat tricks!!

What a great guy he is.

Wow I just got a lesson in class. Much Love n Respect to this man.

The "mighty mite" was awesome! 👍

calling him a goon ............ no way ............best fighter in the NHL

Glad Stan is enjoying retirement and is eating everything in sight

Lil Stan Jonathan , tough as nails...

Stan the tank Jonathan, loved having you in a Boston as a big bad Bruin

Had to stop this at 2:35...... couldn't take anymore of her "questions", >_

He is one guy who I would not want to play against. Perhaps the best fighter ever lb for lb. I think that he was 5'7 and 165 lbs but he fought like he was 230 lbs. I would have loved to see him with the Habs.

Tough guy, great fighter. Never backed down.

Praying for you stan

Don't label him a goon. He was lunch bucket tough and epitomized the toughness of the Bruins. He could play as well and was not selected as a fighter

Legend in my book

A "Goon"??? The man was a 20 goal scorer!! He is also the toughest pound for pound player the NHL has ever had.

Stan you were definitely one of my favorite Bruin of all time, to have Jonathan, o'Reilly and wensink on the same line, man that's a lot of fists flying around. Have to pick my favorite fight with Jonathan and Bouchard from the Canadiens..boy Stan did a number on bouchards face

Stan the Man!

Goon isn’t a compliment, interviewer needs work. Stan is a team on his own. Tough enough.

great defender on the powerplay !

Anyone ever see this guy lose one fight? Would like to have seen him fight O'Reilly. Did he ever fight Probert or Behn Wilson?

Watta badass. You go Chief.

You were a great player.

absolute unit

Stan is legend! That whole Bruin team when Stan played was really good and tough as nails.

What a MAN

Very strong fighter for his size.

Stan jonathan is my cuzin

Pussy hockey today.. God bless you Stan❤️🙏

Stan The Man!

Goon ? No way ! Just because he was a fighter doesn't make him a goon. That's the problem with many people today who don't understand the sport.

The O'reilley's, Jonathan's and Nilan's are no more. You can't find guys who fought hard and also scored goals.

I don’t think she got what she expected in this interview… instead she got a well spoken, humble intelligent man.

Stan wasn't a Goon. Goon's go out and pick on everybody from start to finish. Stan kept things honest & fair.

All class, chick called him a goon

and pierre bouchard is my cousin !!!!!!!!! . great guy !!!!!!!!!!!

SJ is one tough hombre

Think the reporter was a bit rude and disrespectful at the beginning...those days you scored goals and fought they were complete players....Stan Jonathan was one of if not thee best fighter in the NHL this guy took on many guys bigger than him butt never did I see him lose a fight...google his fights you will not find one he lost period.

Get back in the kitchen and make me a sammich! GOON? So clueless!

Goon? Stan Jonathan was not a goon.

one of the heavy weights

I miss Stanley. What a tank.

Don’t know why everyone is against this reporter, she asked tough questions. There’s nothing wrong with that. For some people claiming Montreal of the 70s dominated Boston and the rest of the league,…they are correct. GHG

What a disrespectful horrible job by an interviewer who clearly was not familiar with Jonathan's career. Pound-for-pound one of the greatest fighters in Bruins history but much more than that he was an all-around player he had skill and he could score...

A real classy bish!

Those guys are bigger and tougher than those days! Jonathan would've been smoked and sent to the minors where he'd be smoked by Jon nasty mirasty

why do we have woman in mans sports!!!!!!

I hated this interview!!! The camera man or somebody anybody should have made her stop and start over...SO disrespectful

Not a goon, an enforcer & protector of team players who where there to score not fight! Lady, go read a book on how hockey is played! Ay!

.

What a classless act, Boston Journalism students are ignant, she had/has no idea about hockey or how it is played.

I know this is an old video, but I had to quit watching. That goon of a reporter was awful.

Goon

Awful interview with a great and humble hockey player.

Where is Jen Royle these days? What a terrible interview.

She is classless!!! The game is different today no doubt. But those were different times. She needs to learn respect. What has she accomplished?

take this video down

Bad hockey player, just a goon.

he is a prime example of what we call a GOON . could hardly skate and couldnt put a two word sentance together / played minor league for 1,000 games and got one goal ... this is what was arong with hockey when every tean had 3 such goons .... calling him a one trick fighting goon is >> NOT REGRETABLE
