Much respect to Terry O'reilly from a Habs fan

one of my first hockey cads i ever got was of Terry O'Reilly in 1972-73, been a big fan ever since, Great Show Chris, you were one of my favorites as well, love the way you guys played.

Terry and Chris ..... Wow. What a awesome interview...........Terry was MR.Boston Bruin.

Guys with heart, like these two, are what's lacking in today's game IMO.

Chris, you should be responding to the comments. You will connect and build your audience

O’Reilly and Nilan together on the B’s? Unstoppable! Two absolute legends!!!

I just can't get enough of these stories, thanks Chris.

Knuck is still a teenager, never gets old in spirit and personality! Love the Boston accent ( I'm from Beantown).

I see Terry and his lady on the Salisbury Beach trek on weekends. He's looking good! And their dogs are precious!

just discovered this podcast , cant get enough of it, great job chris !

I grew up as a Montreal Canadiens fan as a kid, because my dad loved watching them. So I loved watching Chris Nilan play. I grew up in Toronto, but I became a big fan of Terry ever since the first time I saw him. I was 11 years old when I went to my first ever Toronto Maple Leaf practice back in 1972, and they were playing the Bruins that night. We saw the Bruins practice first and all of us kids were screaming at the played for autographs. Of course Bobby Orr was getting all of the attention and I saw this young rookie standing by the boards, so I smiled at him and waved and he looked at me and picked up a puck and threw it over the boards to me. I was so excited and I asked him what his name was and he said “Terry O’Reilly”. I then started watching him over the years and I loved how he stood up to the Flyers back then, especially Dave Shultz, who I hated the most because of his bully act. Terry turned out to be a great guy to follow because not only was he tough, but he was also the hardest working guy in the ice. Thanks for the pick Terry…I wish I still had it! I’m glad I got to see this interview….thanks Chris!

Knuckles is fantastic! Love the stories & the guests. Keep going.

Kent Carlson was willing to fight for you on the Canadiens. I'll never forget the way he took on Holmgren

I love the smiles on their faces when they come back from the fight clip. Terry is smirking like "oh ya, I got you" and Knuckles is smirking like "damn, he did get me on that one" love both giys and total respect for how they played. Two head strong and stand up guys. 👍👍

Terry has a great sense of humour.

A great interview, the Brett Hull story is hilarious! Both of you were warriors. Thank you! My question is to Taz. What is your favorite accomplishment? I love you both!

What I love about Hockey players is their respect for each other… or lack of. I loved Terry and hated Chris way back then but I love and respect you respect you both. Keep doing what you are doing Chris, I look forward to every one of your podcasts.❤️

Great episode. Terry seems like a man of integrity. Hope there is a number 3!

Great stuff Chris keep it up. Terry great Oshawa General. Go Gens.

O'Reilly the big Irishman was always true to the "Black & Gold"

Awesome stuff! Been waiting for part 2 for a while!!! Terry is my favorite all time Bruin fighter and always rooted for you Chris being a hometown Boston hockey boy myself!!! Love the channel Knucks!

Terrific stuff, thanks Chris. It's funny, the story about Esposito telling young O'Reilly to slow down in practice vs. Nilan hammering Richer for dogging it. Early ''70s Boston could have been a dynasty if they'd stayed hungry like the Habs did, they had all the talent in the world.

Great interview with 2 legends!

Knucks I could listen all day. great human.

Excellent

Awesome job Chris! Your a good man. Terry was an all time favorite player of mine. The Taz and Turk conflict details 😂. Glad to hear you guys are active alumni!

I grew up an Islander Fan in the 70's - 80s... I saw O'Reilly with the Bruins many times.... He was a great team leader, and came to play every night... Any team would have loved to have him on their roster...

Would love to see you interview Behn Wilson - another upper echelon heavyweight of your era. Very seldom hear any info about what he’s up to. Really enjoy the podcast.

Incredible stories. Men these 2 guys were tough. More important there honest

Come on Chris. Don't be pissed at Hull. Take the high road you got two goals and three assists just remember that. Thank you for your content.

Good job guys!! Waiting on pt. 3

FINALLY!

I remember seeing Terry jump over the boards and run up a dozen rows to beat the crap out of a fan. A few other players were right behind him!...I think it was in NY.

Really enjoyed this, thanks!

Yes!!! Part 2!!!!

Old time tough guys. They are the best! Both have big hearts.

awesome interview!

Great interview Mr Nilan much respect something about your podcast that calms me down. That is the most i ever heard you talk about him really neat fuckin cool.

I didn't want the interview to end.

Chris, Tim love the the podcasts they are excellent. I could watch them all day long as I relate to all of it having grown up in Montreal and being in age group that gets the guests that are part of the podcasts. It was a great era for sports in Montreal.. I wish that there was the ability to make these "call in " types of shows. On another note, Chris, my dad used to coach baseball here in LaSalle, Quebec. He did not coach me but coached my younger brother and they had regular exchanges with the kids from the Parkway association in West Roxbury. Peter Shea was the guy from West Roxbury that was the contact and the LaSalle kids would go there for a weekend and the West Roxbury kids would come to Lasalle for a weekend in the summer. This was back in the early 80's. Just wanted to share that. Chris do you remember Peter Shea?

Awesome interview! Keep up the good work guys. Still hope that you can get the Hammer on a show soon. Him an O'Reilly the top heavyweights back in the day. 👊

So when do we actually do a Terry O’Reilly interview? Chris, you answered 95% of the questions! 0 for 2…

Stan Jonathan Brad Maxwell Glen Cochrane Jack Carlson Nick Fotiu Behn Wilson ** Paul Holmgren Jimmy Mann Randy Holt Bob Nystrom ………. Let’s get these guys on while we still have them… there is nothing better than Old School stories, on ice dialogue, old school mind set of the times is Invaluable …. There is nothing more entertaining & satisfying Than hearing these incredible stories!

I love Chris, but it killed me when "Knuck" became a "CaNuck"! He's still alright, he's a Boston boy! Knucklehead is what hockey is all about in Boston in the 70's!

Warriors!

There was definitely a massive difference between when Terry O’Reilly had a talk with someone and when he had a “chat” with someone!!

Hey Chris how do we order merchandise?

I had a Goalie do that to me. Later in the game I cross checked him in the throat and received a gross misconduct. Man was my old man pissed!!!😅😅

Knucks. Was Grimson the toughest you ever fought? Or Probert?

👍 👍👍👍👍 👍

29:32 mark. O'Reilly says there are 3 officials on the ice today. Umm....huh? Been 4 officials for ages now

Poor Terry has to sit there and listen to Knuckles stories….why ask him to come in?

You keep nilan over hull?? No wonder your team didn’t win!!

Terry O’Reilly was an awesome team-player, and a huge Boston fan-favorite. It was once said that if Taz turned on his own goalie and shot the puck into his own goal, the fans would boo the goalie for not making the save.
