I hope the current Habs roster are listening carefully to Dryden. What a speech.

 

[Bloumeister]

Why are they announcing individuals who are delivering personal comments, by referring to their NHL awards -- it's not a show.

I agree no one cares about their "titles"

... but... iss fun to heer de guy try to say de word in Hanglish

Smith Trophy

 

[roy munson]

Oh Capitaine. Mon Capitaine. Bon voyage.

That killed me...

 

[Phil Parent]

What a beautiful church.

Loved the way Dryden ended it: "This is not a time to say good-bye. This is a time to say ... thank-you."

 

[Malmo]

I hope the current Habs roster are listening carefully to Dryden. What a speech.

I'm sure Emelin caught a word or two.

All jokes aside, this must be very humbling for the Habs players. Great ceremony for a great man.

Geoff's speech was the recital of a CV. Very businesslike, emotions contained.

Serge Savard might be turning 69 soon, but his hair is still 30

Everyone must pray Jesus Price

Sadly, I'm pretty sure half of them don't give a crap.

I'm going to strongly disagree. These are men that have dedicated their life to hockey. This would be a day lost on nobody I would guess

I tried to think of a witty response to that. I can't. I'm trying to counter the effect from the onions my coworkers brought in today.

Couple of things-Is Henri Richard Health the reason he is not at funeral,glad to see Mario,but why again did Wayne Gretzey not show up and where is Bobby Orr-thanks

Yea I wish they would make references or anecdotes about their lives outside of hockey. We keep hearing about how great he was outside of the game, so would have been nice to hear about his moments outside of it. It's not a career recognition moment, it's man's life.
I'm not criticizing though..it's their moments.

 

[Phil Parent]

Djee-zosse.

Djee-zosse.

I thought of that and refrained from posting it. Now we're going to hell for sure.

And now you are making fun of a man's accent.
