Used to work at the Bank of Montreal across from the old forum and Mr. Lafleur was a joy to service. Have many fond memories of payroll days when he would visit our branch. What a fine example of a man…

What a beautiful ceremony. What a wonderful player, and apparently, person, he was. I LOVED watching him against my Sabres all of those years, even when they beat us. The Canadiens were always my second favorite team other than Buffalo of course, but the ONLY jersey I owned was a Montreal "away" jersey. I put Guy Lapoinet's number five on the back and sides of it because I played defense, (you didn't see many of them in Buffalo back in the mid seventies) but that WHOLE Canadien's team, all of them, were magic.
