I'm doing my best to counter the effect of them freaking onions

Up next:

A reading of the scriptures by PAP

Followed by Geoff inducting Jean Beliveau as a Permanent Member of Club 19.09$/beer.

Induction will be preceded by a brief 15-minute reading of Beliveau's CV.

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

Aw come on, TDG. God will forgive me.

But enough of that, now is the moment we say goodbye I believe...

Pfft. You'll rot in purgatory.

No more discussion about religion.

See?

Witty

Geoff Molson said that he was the first player to skate from one end of the rink to the other with the Cup so that all the people in attendance could get a better glance of it and bask in the moment. Didn't know that.

Be honest, who hasn't teared up?

 

[Seb]

Be honest, who hasn't teared up?

I haven't, I have trouble tearing up for people I don't know.

 

[ThaDevilGirl]

Be honest, who hasn't teared up?

I've surpassed my quota of tears in the past 10 days with the Koivu documentary and last night.

 

[Runner77]

Was that JP-Chartrand, again? I just tuned back to RDS and heard the word "Funaraille".

 

[Habsawce]

The weather today is unfortunate.

It is. All I can hear when he speaks is 'senile senile senile'

 

[Whitesnake]

King of Kings. Enough said. You know you are unique when there's actually nobody who can come up with something negative about you. It doesn't happen often.....

 

[Bloumeister]

I haven't, I have trouble tearing up for people I don't know.

You don't count, dude, you're going straight to Hell

 

[Runner77]

The weather today is unfortunate.

Depends how one looks at it. Hockey weather, I suppose.

 

[Seb]

The weather today is unfortunate.

I think it's beautiful!

There was nothing to complain about? I mean, it does bother some people... Maybe his wife was tired of not being able to argue with him?



Too soon?

Needs to be quoted again:

This is not a time to say goodbye. This is a time to say 'thank you'.

- Ken Dryden

Merci monsieur Béliveau.
