Guy had 10 deep playoff runs in a 14 year hockey career. Won everything there was to win. Great player imo.

Richards won at every level. Major Junior, World Junior, AHL, NHL and Olympic Gold.

The kings still have to pay him $250,000 a year until 2031-32. His contract was terminated, but he won an appeal.

Dave Bolland's hit in Game 2 of the 2013/14 WCF against Richards was devastating. How he came back the next year and help lead the Kings to their second Cup is remarkable. I will always remember him as one of my favorite Kings, I just wish him good health and a happy life.

You forgot about the conflict with coach John Stevens and the Dry Island fiasco. He was a brilliant player, especially in the seventh game win in the conference finals against the Bruins during their Stanley Cup run.

2010 Olympic Gold Medalist! This guy has quite the trophy collection... Wish he was still around the NHL.

Jim Carey the net detective. I know it’s a bit older than the usual guys you do, but always was an interesting case to me. The ultimate 1-hit wonder in hockey

I actually live in the same town Mike Richards and his family live at, it’s a lake town and we always see him on the water fishing lol

You've really knuckled down since you started your channel. You've seemingly covered every single player that falls under this umbrella in a very short period of time.

My favorite Flyer of all time miss watching him

Legend has it Mike Is still feeding his dog ice cream

curious this guy speaking sounds british how he know about hockey

good vid keep it up!

My favourite flyer for years and years...total winner!!! Saw a game in vancouver...first shift...bieksa runs gagne with a “clean” hit that has simogne down for a10 count. Without a moment’s hesitation...and conceding about 4 inches and 40 pounds...richards challenges bieksa...took a few more than he gave...but he made his point...don’t fuck with the flyers!!!

I watched Mike Richards play back during his time with the Kitchener Rangers and cheered for him a bit during his time with the Flyers, so I'm happy to see how his career ended up.

Great video, can you do Jose Theodore next

He left it all on the ice and won everything you can win. That's what happened to Mike Richards.

...I hope you're mining Spittin Chiclets. I've noticed many of your episodes feature great guests of the podcast. Searching Scott Gomez got me here.

You are doing a very good job

Wow. I'd completely forgotten he was the Captain of the Flyers.

I would've never guessed that--between Mike Richards and Jeff Carter--Carter would still be playing in the NHL to this day while Richards fizzled out. He seemed like he had that drive which would carry him into his twilight years, proving useful to many teams needing a veteran presence and checking line grit, while Carter appeared to be made of glass at times during his career. Shows what I know.

He actually won an Olympic gold medal in 2010.

Could you organise these videos into a playlist? Or, it's already organised, maybe take out some playlists that are no longer relevant (like different EA Sports playlists)? It's just hard to find them which makes it less likely for people to expend that effort

Whatever happened to Mike Leighton

Unfortunate way to end a career. I think his ceiling was even higher. He could have been a Hall of Famer, a Jonathan Toews-like player. Still, being a captain, a Selke finalist, an Olympic Gold Medal winner and two Stanley Cups is nothing to sneeze at.

Good video. How about Mel Bridgeman and Dave Schultz??

I'd like to see Richards get 1 more shot in the NHL

One of my favorite players ever

I just found his rookie jersey card at a flee market never knew him with any other team than the kings before i found the card, and my phone must have heard me and recommended this 😮

well thanks to Mike Richards I've discovered someone in England gives a rats ass about ice hockey.

great video my man!! should do Mat Sundin...

I always liked Richards and think that a team should give him a call.. see what’s going on with him these days (oilers...)

Great Captain when he was in Kitchener, so much potential, all the tools, hope he tries coaching.

I don’t care what anyone says the kings don’t win their 2 cups without him. He’s one of my favorite players ever.

What ever happend to josh Harding

Jeff carter also was traded

Great video!! I really thought he was busted for snorting that sweet white POWDUH!!! 👃🏼❄️❄️❄️

I did not expect this voice for an nhl-related video

He lives where I do

the down fall started when Justin Williams and Mike Richards weren’t re signed - it is hard to be a kings fan 😕

I love the concept of these videos. But your voice is kinda distracting fam.

Mike Richards is mostly remembered as "the guy who got his brains turned into toothpaste by Dave Bolland."

His demise was leaving Philadelphia. Philadelphia’s demise was Richards leaving Philadelphia.

Should have mentioned he played in a beer league with his brother in his hometown before going to the capitals haha

This Kings fan loves Mike Fucking Richards… He brought the winning culture and was amazing until he got his brains scrambled by the Bolland hit in game 2 of the WCF in 2013 against Chicago

great job. Pavel Bure?

When you are not at the top of your game you don't get too make mistakes like carry illegal drugs across a border.

Can you imagine in 2005 the flyers had Patrick Sharp Justin Williams Mike Richards and Jeff Carter on the Phantoms of course they’re gonna win the Calder Cup and we gave them all away and watched them dominate the league they did it before that too when they gave away Peter Forsberg to Quebec for Eric Lindros only to get Forsberg back later on management has never been patient

Whatever happened to Mike Komisarek

Holmer should have never traded him or Carter.

I think he needs to retire from hockey so that he can go up in the broadcast booth to do color analysis.

Do jerret Stoll

The kings stuck him on the fourth line with Jordan Nolan and clifford,...THE END

Love this series, man Richards, should just retire. 3yrs out of the game, and it just gets faster every year. His PR and declining points, no team will want him.

Concussions.

Whatever happened to Mikail Grabovski or Mike Ribeiro

Isn't he the new host of Jeopardy!? 😏

Flyers fans if you can only have one in there prime who would take. Lindros Richards or Giroux

willie mitchel bro

Tough as nails but could also put the puck in the net would’ve been a good Bruin

he got arrested

Whatever happend to mike ribeiro

One more chance

What happened to Matt Read

What happen to steve eminger?

He deserves another chance in the NHL as long as he keeps his off the ice issues on the low.

Drugs happened

Do Chris Pronger next

i think hes a fisherman rn haha

That contract was pure cancer to a long career

Do fernando pisani

Favorite player of all time, everything youd want in a 1c. Real competitor. As a lightning fan i love watching Brayden Point, hes like a mini Richards with a bit less physicality.

I would know I’m from Canada the country that made the sport and created the league

Whatever happened to Mika Kipprosopt?

Stanley cup rings just sounds like a funny term. Doesn't seem to make sense

Do Ray Emery

Simple answer, cocaine.

Whatever happened to Aaron Rome

hi

Mike Richards doo doo

He got lost in a night club

I'd like to watch your videos but I hate the annoying intro.

I love when we beat the Flyers #letsgopens

One more chance
