    There are many beautiful stories about his humility & generosity.

    He replied back with handwritten letters to every fan mail he received for over 50+ years & his home number could be found in the Montreal phone book.

    So today 9 years ago Beliveau died, it’s also the last game Roy played with us (when we got crushed by the red wings) and it’s also the day we crushed the redwings 10-1 a few years back. We also play the red wings tonight? Well my money is on something special happens (good or bad)

    And that’s when everything went downhill

    The absolute OG. Met him several times. I remember watching him on TV as a young. Last 4 minutes in a tie game, if he was on the ice, he would end it. The most humble, beautiful soul and my absolute #1 sports hero of all time.

  6. Loved him. Such a classy and brilliant player.
