Canadiens honour Lafleur with ceremony at Bell Centre

Watch the entire pre-game ceremony honouring the life and legacy of Habs legend Guy Lafleur, who passed away earlier this week at the age of 70.

[@shylawild]

No one in sports does tributes and ceremonies like the Montréal Canadiens…A beautiful sendoff for their greatest star

[@karaplease6294]

We lost and is not the best year for the franchise but proud of this tribute for the démon blond #10 after the game, all the players go to pay their last respects under the banner the Québec. Is in Mourning .. sry for m'y english 😬

[@elguychopper]

I wish the habs never had to do those

[@canadianintheukbrian]

those Montreal teams in the late 70's were stacked with talent , their D was big skill and nasty, there is no weakness in these teams, you could not ice a team with that much talent in today's cap world, people rem , when I played hockey minor league our equipment was not state of art like today our sticks were like trees, imagine Lafluer having today's sticks , equipment , sports science lol, he would of score 100 goals I think, lol

[@MrZwapp]

The Montreal Canadiens are one of the classiest teams in sports history. This tribute puts tears in my eyes as they honour one of their fallen soldiers. From a Leafs fan, R.I.P. Mr Lafleur.

As a 53 year old man…I never thought I would or could cry for an athlete. I found out I was wrong! First time is for u Guy! RIP

[@pierresigouin3556]

Same for me...

[@GZ_Js]

lafleur what a legend. he will always be remembered, never forgotten. ❤️

[@confusedcas7225]

I believe Patrick Roy said people should cheer rather than have a moment of silence? So the chants and cheers are nice to hear

[@canadianintheukbrian]

if you were a kid growing up in Canada the 70's and playing hockey we all wanted to be Guy Lafleur ; There will never be another Flower, RIP

[@mnif001]

Thanks, Guy, for helping make the 70's such a wonderful decade. RIP

This ceremony showed the class of the Montreal Canadiens Franchise and how much the Canadiens fans loved #10 The Flower ...... Guy Lafleur! I was fortunate enough to be AT the game and watch Guy Lafleur and the Canadiens win the Stanley Cup in the Boston Gardens in 1977! The Canadiens swept the series 4-0! My Guy Lafleur moment came during that game when the TV broadcast was on commercial break and the Gardens was very quiet ....... I yelled as loud as I could, which was VERY loud, "GUY LAFLEUR"....... and from the other end of the ice where Lafleur was standing you could see him turn around with a big grin on his face and he turned and said something to Lemaire beside him and Lemaire laughed! And then the linesman blew the whistle and play resumed ........ I'll never forget that moment! 🦂💘 Les Canadiens

[@williamcap2236]

[@waynetrain8033]

I was lucky as a kid, to watched this legend take flight to the ice , unfortunately only on tv. But still was able to see a hockey great in action.👏👏👏👏

I agree but why so many emojis?

[@kalemacpherson2270]

@@Matthewhky47 i got a new phone playing around with emojis i didnt previously had. Theyre all fitting though

That is why you do not smoke RIP Guy Lafleur

Holy Fucking shit Really off topic but right in the money. He sounds like a quebecois version of gene Honda from the United Center announcements... what the actual fuck.

[@Starling2005]

Have a little respect will you? Cursing has no place here. You ruined a tribute to an outstanding man.

[@seananthony7169]

i hate the habs, but this was a great tribute

[@vstar7196]

This is meaningless. He’s dead and can’t appreciate that this is occurring.
