Montreal Canadiens team owner Geoff Molson delivered remarks Friday afternoon following the news of Canadiens legend and hockey icon Guy Lafleur's death at the age of 70.
Molson described Lafleur as one of the greatest players in Habs’ history and “an extraordinary ambassador for our sport.”
LaFleur was the first player in Canadiens’ history to score 100 points in a season and the first in NHL history to have six consecutive campaigns with at least 50 goals and 100 points. He also won five Stanley Cups with Montreal.
The Canadiens will honour Lafleur’s life and storied career with celebrations in the near future.
