GUY LAFLEUR KNEELS BEFORE THE DEPARTED JEAN BéLIVEAU 2014

[kempster]

I remember Jean BeLiveau coming to town when I was a young kid. My dad used to take me to Olympia Stadium in Detroit to see the Red Wings and the Canadians play.

Thanks.
That was awesome.

Thanks for the ping. That's a great tribute.

And something about that photo sends chills through me. What a remarkable piece of hockey history there.

Back when sports figures were truly men to look up to, it’s a far cry from that today.

What a stunning tribute...RIP #4...

Ping to Airborne for his hockey list (what a great video to pass along).

[Slambat]

This is what hockey is really all about

Beautiful tribute to a classy man.

Those of us outside Quebec cannot feel the impact this man had on society there. He and Rocket Richard are the two greats who have had Quebec state funerals. Someone up here said maybe when Ali goes it might be the same for at least black America. We shall see. I know there are a lot of anti Ali Freepers and I am one of them to some extent but his deification by a large swath of America is out there. Pele who was recently in the hospital might be the same for Brazil.
