Pierre Lacroix emotional speech on Joe Sakic retirement

[@Alex-br3ll]

RIP PIERRE LACROIX

[@NunYa953]

True Avalanche fans should love Pierre LaCroix as much as Joe Sakic.

[@TheConvertable50]

Built those wickedly good teams

[@Avsfanatic1997]

RIP Pierre

[@CdeHavillandMosquito]

I see a giant statue of Joe Sakic on every city block whenever I walk the streets of Québec. In my mind.

As a HUGE AVs fan, (season ticket holder who lives 200 miles from Ball Arena) I saw over 30 regular season home games in Denver last year, and every playoff game there as well. I found a website the airs live every NHL game free and saw every away game and the few home games I didn't attend. I've never been much for birthday celebrations and in particular my own. So much so was my lack of awareness of my own birthday that one year I was reminded it was my birthday as I was filling out my time card at 10PM, otherwise the date would have passed without my notice. Several weeks ago I had my birthday, and by chance saw it was Joe's as well. I will probably remember Joe's birthday going forward.

It has to be said that Pierre Lacroix is a throroughbred GM, and a very dignified one too. on another note, I thought of a quote that aptly applies to Joe Sakic: “Who sows virtue reaps honor.” Leonardo da Vinci-

Super Joe Sakic 😢

[@Snipes-76]

Burnaby Joe. The master of the wrist shot.

[@welch3319]

In his next venture... he sure was !!😊

[@Giratina70]

@Forcepro21 clarification, theo fleury was traded to the avalanche, as was rob blake and ray bourque. but still, incredible moves made by lacroix.

[@TheConvertable50]

Not as incredible as the absolute theft he perpuated on the Montreal Canadians for Roy

[@Matteo4Azzurri]

SUPER JOE, FOREVER!!!

[@brettfavreify]

I wish the Canadiens had the foresight to hire Pierre as GM.

[@xAxiom720x]

well its just zoomed in, its not up really close.

[@chopis520]

Damn, last comment was a year ago.

[@ebtricks]

@Forcepro21 Just wait....

[@jockejocke1]

Couldn't they leave his son alone, jeez.

[@jockejocke1]

Joe's, At 6:10 Sticking that camera in his face like that, how about some privacy, right?

[@reyjusuf]

Pierre did well bringing Ray Bourque and Rob Blake but then he tinkered too much trading away Drury, Yelle, Podein, Messier, Tanguay

[@meds613]

joe sakic's wifeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
