Always had a soft spot for the Pocket Rocket.

 

[AvroArrow]

Condolences.

Had a very tough last name to live up to. He did it with class, dignity and a style all his own.

 

[TMLeafer]

Rest in Peace

One of the greatest, and a true gentleman. RIP.

Repose en paix Pocket Rocket.

 

[namttebih]

Most cups all time, isn't he?

 

[leafsleafs]

I was foolish.

I put in around the league. Henri’s got too much class for that, as you can tell by the responses here.

Glad to see it, and well done all of you.

Great hockey player, the Canadiens version of Dave Keon

Rest Well Henri

 

[HespelerGreenFlash]

RIP Pocket. A great true competitor. Love hockey and his Canadiens. Im not sure players of today can ever love their team like the old heroes

 

[ToneDog]

Scored big goal against Tony "O" in game #7 of the SC final. RIP with all your SC rings.

More cup rings than the fingers to wear them. Won't see that ever again.

 

[leafsleafs]

Five foot seven and a hundred and sixty pounds.

A testament to height doesn’t measure heart.

 

[LeafSteel]

Mad respect to Pocket Rocket.

Heart of a giant and the kindest of souls

May he Rest In Peace, and condolences to his family and Habbers. He was much loved and respected.

They don’t come like this anymore.

Name on the cup 10 times.

11

 

[leafsleafs]

Yep, eleven.

Think about how incredible that is.

I bet he never got used to it, either.

When you are that good, you don’t.

Just go for the next one.

Great player, and by all accounts a really great guy.
