Love this interview. Would’ve loved to hear him talk about Val Nichushkin a bit and what he meant to the run. There were some nights I thought he was giving Makar a run for the Conn Smythe.
I've been an Avs fan since they were still in Quebec. I am so thrilled to have been able to see this team take 3 cups in my lifetime. This last one was surreal, so many years of watching an hoping. If only the internet was a thing back in '95 to the extent it is now. It would have been pure magic to have been able to see Sakic, Forsberg and Roy in a setting like this after winning the cup. I relish these kind of interviews so much, raw and uncensored, the way it should be. Makes me love the players even more than I already do. Fantastic stuff.
This video was recommended to me. I was confused by how such a relatively small (not in a negative way,this is well produced) podcast could get such a big name. After 30 sec of research, I realized this is where he’s from! No wonder he’s so chill here, really great interview!
@@RIPJimmyA7X MacKinnon played out of his mind in Game 5 with that Hatty only to get let down by his teammates, but Darren Helm and JT Compher were so clutch in that series.
That loss did sting but I didn’t have any doubts they were going to win the series. Mostly because of how dominant they’d been on the road and also how resilient they were all season. The difference between this team and the previous few years was that I never felt they were out of a game. They kind of had the ole, “We’re down 1 or 2 goals. Pfft…we’ve got this” mentality.
Nate’s been here in Denver a long time. So I was most happiest for him. And of course Gabe and EJ. But Nate is such a great guy and incredible hockey player and he turned it on when it counted most.
Love u Nate. You got that Dawg in you 😤, Go Avs, we’ll always love you. Grew up watching him since he was drafted, he was 18 and I was 8 when Mackinnion changed my life as an Avs fan. I love you Nate
I've been waiting for an interview like this. So many narratives during the cup run, good to hear what really went down and how the Dogg saw it. I'm pumped up now. Today is going to be a great gym workout!
Warriors were a three seed this year, bucks were a three seed last year, and the 1 seed lakers beat the 5 seed heat in 2020. Upsets are the norm in basketball. Just say you don’t watch 🤣🖕
The 1 seed suns we’re almost knocked out by the 8 seed Pelicans who took them to game 7 in the first round, and then the suns were subsequently destroyed by the 5th seeded Mavs in round 2. You and mackinnon know nothing about basketball lmfao. That would be equivalent to the preds forcing a game seven vs the Avs and then the Avs subsequently getting gentleman’s swept by the LA Kings
@@Nedews1 I like it, I think 87 will be in the contract someplace. I was so worried if the Avs didn't win the Stanley Cup this year, Mack would be testing free agency. Sakic will get him signed this summer, look for that after his day with the Cup.
Huh, here I thought I saw Makar had an amazing hockey head, and his physical skills were catching up, Nate says the opposite pretty much. He would know more than me. Imagine having those two and Gabe as leaders. Crazy star power leadership you couldn't even ask for. MacKinnon hasn't stopped moving his legs in about 3 years now, guess he really wanted that cup. Love that he noted the two way game. Such a perfect top line all playoffs long. Didn't historically shoot the lights out but still all at a point per game together, with mad possession and +/- domination.
Such an awesome interview! Loved seeing Nate Dawg in his natural habitat. He must think highly of the host because he never gives interviews, let alone sitting for a full hour. New subscriber here! Can’t wait to hear more!
My biggest questions as an avs fan going in to the playoffs: 1 can girard stay healthy and can he play his game. 2 is MacK gonna be on all the time on defense... he blew me away with how good he was defensively, made the ultimate difference imo.
I love this man and I'm so glad we drafted him instead of Seth Jones (no dispect to SJ). Listening to Mac talk makes me such a fan... he is so so humble and I'm so grateful he is (kinda) this generation's Peter Statsny-- not exactly, but an iteration for the modern era!!!... I also appreciate his comments about how the media frames things vs. the reality of how they actually go down (discussion in the 10 - 12 medium range somewhere)... and Mac's insights into the Oilers series were fun to hear too; in the Edmonton series-- they (the Av's) showed that they were ready for the big moment, and Edmonton showed that they were not (props to AJ from DNVR-- that's his observation)... remember Manson behind the bench losing his shit?!?!.. anyway, fabulous vid-- instant like and subscribe
@@Dhelmise29 He say he doesn't believe in superstition, but if you have been to Avs games in Denver. I noticed a few things Nate does. For warmups- Nate have to be last following Rantanen on the ice. When warmups are over he is the last player to leave the ice. He also spends time skating with Lehkonen when the clock ticks down to zero. They both leave the ice at the same time, Lehky first, Mack last...Weird.
The hug between MacK and EJ immediately after the final horn was my favorite moment of the celebration
This is what the Dogg does, wins cups, and gives nothing but love to his guys
only 1
@@robbrobb659 he's gonna get more
It's so nice to see Nate relaxed
For sure, guy finally reached his life goal. You can just see how relieved and blessed he his for it all.
@@tegridyfarmz He'll be back working hard to try to get more Stanley Cups for sure. The guy is too competitive to be settlr for only one.
Loved to hear MacKinnon talk about his win and hear the relief in his voice.

Never been so happy for someone I don’t know personally. Congrats, Nate!! Well deserved man.
Great interview. Mack seems so down to earth and this and the chicklets interview really showed off that great character
I really can't overstate how, as an Avs van, devistating game 5 against st Louis was for us fans. It really did feel like "here we fucking go again"
Equally impactful when Helm scored to win game 6. What a rollercoaster that week was.
Yep exactly and it was game 6 where I truly thought to myself ya this team is different. The response the boys showed was absolutely incredible

A+++ interview

Amazing podcast. Love hearing Nate more relaxed and natural. He usually gives pretty dry responses to media, but he really opened up here.
love this interview go avs go
Solid podcast! You should have more Avalanche on here please
Theres another one with Newhook
We want Mikko
"when u get angry u waste energy' so true natemac
Best hockey interview I've ever seen, just fuckin awesome!!! Seeing Nate so relaxed is WEIRD BUT INCREDIBLE!!!! So happy for MacK and the boys!!!!
Such a great interview!! Loved seeing my Avs winning the Cup again after 21 years and Nate finally getting his Cup. ❤

“You never know like there’s upsets it’s hockey it’s not basketball”

@@commanderalexander1 it’s not even coping, I’m a fan of both sports. It’s a completely ignorant take.
Awesome interview!! Really well done. Was great to see this side of Nate. The city of Denver is proud
Go Avs! Great job Nate and the boys getting it done.
Loved this interview :)
Great interview with Nate....very open now...you can feel the relief in his answers. Hope he can stay hungry!
Great interview ! Good to see Nate finally rewarded .
Outstanding Interview!🏆
Awesome interview !
So glad I found your channel
Very good interview
LOL love to see his reaction to losing that game 5 after his amazing goal. “Too bad 😬” hahaha
He is just the best, so honest
Amazing interview
Great stuff, I'd mark out if I met Nate
Shoutout to the great interviewer with great questions and letting alot of place to NateDogg
Now we have to extend him for 8 years!
Offer him about 75 million, I’m sure he’ll sign it. I think he will play his entire career for one team just like his boy Crosby.

Настоящий мужик и спортсмен без лишнего ✊️👍👍✊️👍✊️👍👊👏👏👏
Insane that a Stanley cup champion/future HHOF player gets interviewed and it barely gets viewed.
It's a small podcast tbf. Halifax based and what not.
It just came out! Give it time
Share it
The crazy thing is I knew we were going to win it this season just had a gut feeling since the first game of 2021
He's a bad man and a Champion 🏆 Forever NM , go Colorado let's do it again 💪 🙌 👏 🙏 😎 .........

Woulda liked you asking him about an extension or his thoughts on free agency... but good work...Nate's a DAWG!

Interesting omission of Sammy G when talking about Avs D
Re: the media stuff, it's always funny how people are so sure they know what goes on with total strangers and in the locker room.

Needs to get extended by the end of the summer. Don’t want to go into the year without him signed
He's not going anywhere
Such a smart person

Nate Dogg. I’m a Zamboni driver in Glenwood Springs Colorado I would love for you to skate my ice.
MacKAttack!
Great interview. Still don’t understand the 1787 thing though.
He’s best friends with Sydney Crosby. Mack having room 1787 was a nod to Syd (#87)
Superstition rarely ever makes sense. Once you understand that, youll get it
Also 17 - the Penguins year for winning the Stanley Cup, 87 - Number Crosby wears on the ice...1787.

@@marie2274 ive heard him say that as well. All hockey players have at least a little superstition in them tho in my opinion!
Personification of leadership.
That game five loss was awful! I paid a lot of money to fly from Tx and be at the game. Then we went back home to watch game six on tv. Terrible!
I wish you asked Nate Dawg his thoughts on Nazem Kadri potentially not signing for next year?!
Nate I'm anxiously waiting on the parade date buddy. Gotta make my plans for my 2 hour drive to see you with the Cup!
Did you go ? 😬
All grown up. Look out
See you at the parade!!
Nice
dope
If kuemper shuts it down in game 5 after that goal.. he's still an avalanche imo 😆
What a joke
Salty Blues fan lol. Kadri is your new mayor.
You? We know hahahahaha
We know your life is a joke, no need to tell everyone. 🤣
Not now chief
He a joke so is, the team
Salty Blues fan lol. Kadri is your new mayor.
Bow down to the champs LMAO
