R.I.P. Jean Beliveau

icehog3 · 12-03-2014, 03:00 PM

One of the greatest hockey players of all time, and a class act as well.

10 Stanley Cups as a player for the Canadiens, and his name was etched on it 7 more times as an executive for the Habs.

I had the pleasure of meeting and speaking with him for a few minutes 20 years ago, he was very generous with his time and stories.

R.I.P., Mr. Beliveau.

Farewell le gros bill ... Perhaps the finest gentleman to ever play the game.

Indeed, Derrek, that did not go unnoticed.

And I owe you a text, sorry I have been lax.
