Debuting today, the three-episode series shows what Habs legends are cooking up on and off the ice
MONTREAL, Nov. 9, 2023 /CNW/ – With hockey season officially underway, Hellmann’s is delighted to debut their new hunger-inducing series – Cooking with Legends – which pairs up Montreal Canadiens’ legends and a legend of Quebecers’ kitchens: the province’s #1 mayonnaise*. From the most emotional moments in the Bell Centre to fun facts about your favourite Habs legends on and off the ice, the series gives an inside look at what fans want to know, and a taste of all the people behind the success of the Canadiens.
Hosted by Tony Marinaro of The Sick Podcast, the three-part video series celebrates what makes up the “secret sauce” of the Habs fandom: the games, the rituals, history, fans, legends, the Bell Centre, the game day eats and more. In every episode, Tony is joined by special guests including current captain of the Montreal Canadiens Nick Suzuki, former legendary player and Hockey Hall of Famer Guy Carbonneau, and announcer of all the action in the Bell Centre, Michel Lacroix. Alongside Tony, each guest will cook up a unique Hellmann’s game day dish while dishing out everything fans want to know.
“The Habs franchise has a long and storied legacy, and as the captain, fans want to know what’s behind the energy, drive and passion I’m bringing to the ice to bring the team to victory,” mentions Nick Suzuki, Captain of the Montreal Canadiens. “I can’t wait to share the ‘secret sauce’ – my inside scoop – on Cooking with Legends, and even non-diehard fans can learn a thing or two with recipes for gameday eats to enjoy while cheering us on from home.”
The video series can be watched on Hellmann’s YouTube channel, with the first episode being released today, November 9.
