LeClair is pure legend. One of the main reasons I became a Flyers fan. He was a monster and seems like a great guy. For me, his era was the golden age of hockey.

@burnzyburnswild 3 года назад

That was the best era of hockey

@jimmykarlsson2567 2 года назад

Yeah 90s and early 2000s

@colesteele3594 4 года назад

Best power forward in US hockey history. Absolutely loved his style.

@sweetswing1 4 года назад

He was incredible in the 93 playoffs for the Habs. Was so mad when he was traded.

@DucksUpDogsDownCatsSlide 4 года назад

I am surprised that he didn't score 500 career regular season goals.

@integrity101 3 года назад

@@DucksUpDogsDownCatsSlide it was a much more physical era. The man is a hall of famer in my book

@JohnnyMacalvee-cf7et 2 года назад

I agree. What a beast. My favorite player in my 20s, and my family told me I am related to him...oddly enough I am related to Jean Béliveau. But, LeClair was a real deal power forward with the likes of Neely. Johnny Lac should be a Hall of Fame inductee soon.

@jimmykarlsson2567 2 года назад

Along with Tkachuk

@navychop6667 3 года назад

I remember when he was at BFA St. Albans and played my High School for the State Championship. We all hated him since he single handedly manhandled our team. Then when he played his first game with the Montreal Canadians we all watched in awe and cheered when he scored his first goal.

@Lettusfarm 3 года назад

Best day of my life was when I got to go into the Philly locker room after a game against the pens. Got to meet the team and get my picture with John. Also got an autographed Roenick stick. John was my hero growing up and still think back to that day 15 or so years later.

@jimmykarlsson2567 2 года назад

That must have been 2004 i think. LeClair, Roenick, Recchi, Primeau and Amonte on the same team. I can bee wrong??

@rpd1459 4 года назад

This guy was strong as fuck, even back then. Pairing him with Lindros was probably the best factor ever to get some extra performance. And he loves Philly, lives there too. In terms of Philedaplhian Athletes, he is world classy.

@kriswerner9414 4 года назад

I remember the time he shot the puck through the side of the goal netting, and it still counted. Fucking Legend

Les Diquens that is what I was hoping too. It would be a good interview and I’m sure he would have great stories both from being a player and a coach

@helgarivers6281 4 года назад

Lidstrom's pattern on his stick was awesome to play with. I miss that stick and playing all those beer league games. What a great game.

@andyc9979 4 года назад

When they asked LeClair about the state of the game I couldn't help but to think back to his era and wish hockey was like that still. Hated the flyers but they were fun to watch. Along with Detroit and the avs. It was must see hockey.

I got to see him in St. Albans when he brought the cup there. I have no idea where that photo ended up but the memory remains. And when he got traded to Philly and played with Eric Lindros, I felt like I died and went to heaven. My two favorite players of all time on the same team.

John is a beauty, so happy to hear the stories about him bullying Flower and talking shit about Whit 😂😂😂 John is one hell of a legend, 3 50+ goal seasons in a row in his prime, mind boggling stats from his prime 448 points in 5 seasons with 235 goals during that time. We call that a beast where I'm from.

This man honestly CAN be considered the most important and greatest Flyer of all time. My favorite Flyer definitely and SOOOO important to those 90s Flyers teams. And as an added bonus - yes hes a YANK! Not every great player with a French name is a Canuck! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

@Michael-dy2gw 3 года назад

Class act. Loved what he had to say about Desjardins.

I was working for the Fredericton Canadians, Montreal's farm team when John was a rookie in 1991. He did not spend much time in the minors as I recall. You could see the brief time He was with us he was a special player. My buddy played college hockey for Middlebury against LeClair and the University of Vermont. he said he knew He had pro potential back then

Yep. LECLAIR was named to the all-star WORLD CUP team that year. Twice he was an USA all star plus 5 nhl all star selections.

@samueladams7102 3 года назад

36:15 Nah Whit, you're right. '02 was the year Belarus upset Sweden. Tommy Salo let in a goal from center ice (or so it seemed) and Belarus eliminated Sweden. Sweden beat Canada earlier in the tournament so it for sure would've been a tough matchup for them.

@24cupsandcounting 4 года назад

I still have my LeClair jersey that I bought in 93, I loved that kid, such a terrible trade.

@jayshedd2140 2 года назад

I had a Canadians Jersey and after he was traded i bought a Philly LeClair Jersey. Nobody seemed to mind me wearing either of them when I went to watch him play in Boston, Montreal, Philly or even Ottawa. I had numerous LeClair cards, an autographed 8x10 pic of him and several news paper articles with him in it. John's cousins house burned to the ground back in the 90's and I gave all of my memobilia to his cousins daughters that were at that time were very young. Maybe once a year now I see the girls and they always tell me how much they appreciate everything I gave them! Makes me feel good knowing how much they appreciate it!

@@sweetswing1 I met LeClair and Lindros when I was 18 at a charity event. Shook both of their hands. I was 6'1" 230lbs. By all accounts, a big kid with big hands. Or so I thought. LeClair and Lindros have hands that could palm a watermelon. That's the first time I remember thinking "We may look like the same species, but these guys are different."

Renberg may have been better than Leclair who should be in the HOF. Unfortunately Renberg got hurt half way through his 3rd year and he was never the same player. Watch Renberg in 1994, 1995 & the first half of 96. Great player. He was not the weak link on that line, he was just the first to be slowed down by injuries.
