All the best to him and his family. I have great memories of him and always liked him. A real players coach and my memories go way back to the days when he was bringing up Steve Yzerman. I'll always have a soft spot for this guy.

My mom just told me this morning, I hope he gets well. This is really odd since I've been reading his autobiography recently. The man has had a very rough life and I hope he goes through this, a very good man who contributed our last Cup. Anyway, can this this disastrous season surrounding any Habs related stuff end any sooner?

 

[That Habs Fan]

Okay who cursed this franchise?

Molson should hire an exorcist this summer.

Strokes are terrible for those that can't get their full neurological functions back. All the best to him and his family.

I know its a bit further off topic but i find it telling how one of their 'cast members' and employees has a stroke, yet their report of story on their website taken from Canadian Press.

Get better, Jacques.

This is awful. I hope he has a quick and full recovery. He's one of the nicest guys I've ever met.

Lies, that'd be me.

 

[Le Tricolore]

Lies, that'd be me.

I said "one of" you *****.

 

[HabsTown]

I'm working in a rehab centre where we have that type of patients.

I can tell you, it goes both way.. some are never the same again and others you woudn't even know they had one. Let's hope for the 2nd scenario.

 

[Stoneburg]

Wish him all the best, and a full and speedy recovery.

 

[Strat]

Wow, I hope he gets better!

Seems like a genuinely nice guy and there aren't enough of those around.

 

[Dominator13]

Knowing someone like him who passed away a couple years ago, there's people in this world that are so obsessed with helping out others at all times that they eventually forget to take care of themselves at some point. I wish him the best, but he needs to take care of himself and start losing a few pounds if he wishes to stay here a but longer.

 

[Habs10Habs]

Get well soon Jacques!

 

[JCR]

All the best, for him and his family, and a speedy and full recover, that's all we can do and wish for!

 

[CapSpace]

From what I know, it really looks bad for him. If what I heard is correct more terrible news are coming about him, sadly.

 

[Mad Brills*]

Terrible news.

 

[HabsDood]

Life.. That thing..

 

[Justin11]

Heard the terrible news this morning.

Get well soon Jacques!

 

[windycity]

awful, hope he heals well and fast

 

[Account Terminated]

Get well soon, Monsieur Demers.
