Published 20 hours ago
Description
Playing for the Canadiens comes with a lot of pressure under Montreal's very bright hockey spotlight. That spotlight is even brighter for francophone players and the Canadiens have several of them this season, including Phillip Danault, Alexandre Texier, Zachary Bolduc, Alexandre Carrier and Samuel Montembeault. On this Hockey Inside/Out Show bonus episode, former Canadiens teammates and 1986 Stanley Cup champions Chris Nilan and Brian Skrudland join The Gazette's Stu Cowan to discuss what it's like playing under Montreal's intense spotlight and how it has impacted players.
