He was an amazing person and hockey player. He was always there for the fans. That’s what matters. Today’s players are all about the money. He will be missed. RIP Guy my childhood idol thanks for the memories.
It has been 31 years ago that the Canadians won their last Stanley Cup . Now over 30 teams play lifeless clone hockey . I'm 65 years of age , I began watching hockey at the age 5 ( 1964 ) . Jean Beliveau of the Canadians was the Man of the 60's and then in 1970 came Ti-Guy Lafleur . It took 3 years and the disposal of his helmet before he could feel at home and there was no stopping him from that moment until 1980 . I consider myself a very fortunate person to have lived Stanley moments and parades on Ste-Catherine's blvd and to have watched the most spectacular player in the history of hockey . When they closed the old Montreal Forum to open the new Bell Center , I retired from hockey ! Vive Guy Lafleur . So
Simply put... they'll never be another Guy Lafleur. Heros are remembered... but legends never die. Guy Lafleur lives on in eternity in La Belle Province.
Bruins fan. Guy was incredible. Bobby, Guy, Mario..were heralded before their NHL careers...these three lived up.to and beyond anything we could have imagined. They're three greatest I've ever seen..with Chicago's #9 and Your #4. But my opinion means shit.
