Pat Quinn on The Hour with George Stroumboulopoulos

[kturner87]

I was blessed to be able to meet, shake the hand of and have a conversation with Pat Quinn today. Wow what a legend. My heart fluttered.

[theicnerd1]

@kturner87 i got his autograph, hes great !

[mochopz]

We need Quinn back in toronto

[dojOdRiFTeR]

biggest mistake vancouver made was letting him go

[comfortecono]

QUINN AND BURNS THE 2 GREATEST COACHES EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!

[103Uke]

The difference between Quinn and Wilson is that Quinn is Irish and Wilson is not. Leafs lost a lot of luck when they fired Quinn.

[CrackTownPooner]

Bobby Orr never kept his head up

[vi3thunny]

One of the best faces of the Canucks organization and got us to the unforgettable '94 Stanley cup finals.

I hated how after the Griffiths family gave up the ownership, the new owner had immediately fired Pat and gave away all of our players after the change.

Even though he didn't get to have Lord Stanley, at least he gave us the Olympic Gold Medal in 2002.

[17MJG93]

The Leafs fired the wrong guy when they fired Quinn. Should've been JFJ that got fired. Edmonton had a tough year this year but it really wouldn't shock me to see them get turned around with Quinn behind the bench. He's a great coach, he knows his x's and o's, and furthermore, he can really win a team over- he can get the guys to play for him.

[themooddisorders]

FAT MAN IN A LITTLE COAT!

[Logic1916]

@themooddisorders get bent you Wank-stain. You wouldn't even be worthy of carrying Pat Quinn's hockey bag.

[themooddisorders]

dislike this fat quinn fella

[gurisleafs]

George Stroumboulopoulos imo is a much better host than Micheal Landsberg the otr guy

[TAG037]

no denying that

[IanEColeman]

He's never won the cup?

[screechwashere]

pat quinn is the fuckin man lol.

[jbrown1169]

Whenever your country feels joy/depression over a junior hockey championship, unless your are a parent of a kid on the team, it means your country has failed at life.

[Sorcoral]

Coming from a country that follows College sports to the extent that America does I find your comment very laughable

[screechwashere]

or were proud of our nation.

dont see how wanting our country tosucced counts as failing but whatever lol.

[BloggerMusicMan]

Thank you! Or any sport for that matter. I hate how seriously the FIFA World Cup and the Olympics are taken.

[petclark1]

I'd LOVE to feel the weight of my anklkes on his shoulders. WOOF!! Serious Bear material!!

[Jsouthwell2006]

i think if pat coached my team then maybe the players on my team would have acted there age and played alittle better and maybe i would have had a better season as a goalie and maybe i could have started in a game

[brettsheakirk]

what was the situation with Gary Bettman and the WW1 player that george briefly mentioned

[oilersking512]

ya hes the oilers head coach

[domibernier]

sully2god your an idiot hes edmonton head coach

[vene777]

greatest coach?? Haha give me a break. He never won a Cup. How many has Bowman won? That's what I thought.

[NintendoGam3r]

Greatest hockey coach of all time, I miss him in Toronto.

[lextasy88]

he's head coach of edmonton now

[SuLLy2GoD]

uuhh no hes not.

[lextasy88]

are u retarded? go do your research before u talk. he's head coach of the edmonton oilers idiot

[zahrauzman]

sullys a retard eh?

[KCGary]

Oil city headed for the 2010 cup, baybay!

[JimB667]

PAT QUINN RUUUULLLLEESS

[rafakasb]

Pat Quinn is the new oilers coach!! oilers to win the cup in 2010

[zahrauzman]

LMAO LEAFS HAVE MORE OF A CHANCE!

[markisnew]

@rafakasb how embarrassed are you about that prediction right now, haha

[rafakasb]

@markisnew it was just delayed by a year :P

[Aggiechilds]

Pat Quinn is the man. The Leafs were doomed to fail by letting this fine, fine individual go. Fuck Ferguson, Fuck Peddie, Fuck Maurice. What a joke. They screwed things up so bad, that they've had to hire Quinn's pupil, Brian Burke to straighten things out. Hold on to your hats.

[pocopilot]

yeah Quinn is west for life, he should be coaching van city again

[Maxie1111]

Just come back and coach on any team, you're a genius anywhere!

[musicgeek3]

bring a team to Hamilton and he can coach them !

[leafyutube]

Great interview! Glad George asked Pat about the hit on Bobby Orr.

One thing that wasn't mentioned in this show is that Quinn's 1980 Flyers still hold the NHL record with a 35-game unbeaten streak. That record will probably never be broken.

[Jsouthwell2006]

holy shit 35 game unbeaten streak, maybe if quinn coached my team then we wouldnt have sucked so much and we could have won some trophys

[vadimzdonutube]

your team is probably nor a destructive machine like the philadelphia flyers in the 1970s

[titanflesh65]

Quinn to MTL!! please!!!!!

[norhamdan1985]

Love this guy. Good old Hamiltonian.

[stevieisseraph]

over rated as a coach.

[beejusbeejus]

Funny you'd say that because I've always felt he was underrated.

I don't think that anyone could lead the Leafs to a Stanley Cup (if that's why you're of the opinion that he's overrated).

[thegiant1]

Lets get rid Fatty and bring Quinn back to the 'Nucks!

[hoodikov31]

you idiot

[svperstar]

see you behind the Pitts bench soon.

[asanrules]

Still can't believe that after 3 years no nhl team has taken a chance on patty. He's got experience, a winning record, and is well respected in the hockey world. Someone hire this guy!

[th3inquisitiv31]

Go Leafs Go !!!

[lostcanuck]

epic interview! quinn is such an iconic figure in canadian hockey. i always love hearing stories from these guys with so much experience and history in the game.

[fiver420]

Great interview!

Pat your the best, come back to Toronto. At least you kept us in the playoffs when you were around.

[brutallyunbiased]

Scotty Bowman couldn't get that team into the playoffs.

[crazyperson3245]

yeah really tho

[hotheadmusicvideos]

Let's All Give Pat a Pat on the Back.

Here's a Song For Ya Pat

Hockey Time in Canada.

HOT HEAD

~:)

[Dane42o]

lol, did he say "Thanks Greg" at the very end?

[crazygothvixen]

it does kinda sound like Greg...but it could just be a weird mumbled George.

[juicr500]

Quinn is a LEGEND.

[0000ll]

If you don't like hockey please get out of Canada k thanks.

[SwobyJ]

Canadian != hockey-lovers

[onestepback]

They almost need longer interviews. I could use another ten minutes with the guest of almost every interview George has done.

[izmeman]

agreed i really love george...best interviewer in the business...katy curic o gosh now thats a person who needs to quit

[kcowneduall]

great guy, really bad toronto team killed his career.

[ClassicRockMitch]

LOVE HIM

[lesmcluffalot]

The Hour catering to the Canadian Redneck. Too much hockey related garbage on this show now. I don't like it. I'll watch Hockey Night in Canada if I want hockey interviews, but I don't. Are you listening George? This viewer says no more hockey garbage.

[ameliabedelia99]

have never been accused of being a redneck, but i loved this interview.

[Zxceelxuz]

A couple of hockey related interviews the past few shows and all of a sudden it's too much?

[TommyVercetti224]

In the last few episodes who from hockey has been on? Pat and Gary Bettman. 2

[SwobyJ]

I don't agree with you about the Hour and hockey related interviews, but you *do* have my sympathies, from a Canadian who dislikes hockey a LOT. Food and circus...

[ploox14]

wonderful guy.

[Co0kieCrumbl3]

holy i was!

[ethanjkelly]

.....

[Co0kieCrumbl3]
