Chris Nilan shares how he almost died... and how it changed his life!

Chris NIlan - FULL INTERVIEW! A 12 Year NHL Veteran, Stanley Cup Champion, Chris Nilan who played 688 regular season games for the Montreal Canadians, Boston Bruins and New York Rangers. Known in hockey circles by his nickname “Knuckles”, he was feared by teams he played against for his tough, intense play, and his ability to drop his gloves without hesitation when the situation called for defending his teammates or creating a spark for his team. He holds the NHL record for most career penalties by an American born player, and is one of only 9 players to have amassed over 3,000 career penalty minutes in the NHL. Since retiring, he has had some serious off-ice battles with addiction, and like his hockey battles, he has met these challenges head on. He continues to make strides in his recovery, and in his life overall with the help of a great relationship, and a huge dog named Adele, and contributes to numerous charitable causes giving back to the community and those in need... He is also the host of a very successful Podcast – “The Raw Knuckles Podcast” So pleased to be joined by Stanley Cup Champion – Chris Nilan – ENJOY!
