Many of us never saw Claude Provost play but he played over 1000 games as a Hab and won 9 Stanley Cups. He was his era's version of Bob Gainey.
He last played in 1970 and passed away in 1984 of a heart attack while playing tennis.
Why do I want to pay him tribute?
Most cups of any player not in the Hall of Fame and IMO the Habs should consider retiring his number 14.
I am surprised that he has slid through the cracks and was never honored properly.
9 time cup winner and a brilliant defensive forward deserved better.
