Ranking the greatest Habs legends still alive - #6

[peate]

I was ashamed to be a canadian and the only way they won was by slashing Kharlamov. Like yes they won but how they did? It's good to read few people didn't forgot what happened.

That was the Canadian way I guess. Why I hated the Flyers and laughed so much when we swept them in 76.

Just to add a bit of interest.
Jean-Guy Talbot. A name from my past. It's 1960 and I am 9 years old. Every Sunday I went skating at Shamrock park. A rink very close to Atwater market. Many Sundays Jean-Guy Talbot would get some skating in at the rink. Nice guy, their must have been 20 kids skating behind him going round and round. I NEVER FORGOT THAT. I remember it was the first time I got to see a PRO skate. The power of his stride cutting groves into the ice with a mere 3 strides he was just flying. As a 9 years old WOW just WOW the POWER in those legs.

You old fart, I too was 9 in 1960, and Patricia park is where I played hockey. Doug Harvey would make the odd appearance; it was my dad who noticed him. You would find him more often at Loyola, but he lived near by. Funny how lives are intertwined.

That was hockey in the 70s

Would vote for Price next IMO

Lemaire was the best player on the ice in countless play off games. IMO #25 should be hanging from the rafters.

Six players in NHL history have two Cup winning goals:

Toe Blake
Jean Béliveau
Bobby Orr
Henri Richard
Jacques Lemaire
Mike Bossy

Pretty good company.

Another hockey legend didn`t see mentioned, Marc Tardif. Won 2 cups with the Habs. 2nd all time leading scorer in WHA history (and ahead of Bobby Hull).

You two guys are older than me. I have to show you some respect for your venerable age.
My first kiss was in fall when we launch our bodies on a pile of leaves (maple orange), a little game Suzanne ask me, one body over another, childish and innocent. But she kissed me whan she was over me.
