This was just posted on youtube today. Its my most proud moment in my Habs hockey life. Even more than the 93 Cup.
I was born and raised in Montreal in a diehard Habs family. My Grandfather (RIP) was a diehard Richard fan (the 2 were teammates with the Junior Canadiens back in the day). Maurice and my Grandfather stayed friend right to the end.
I watched the final game in the Forum with my Grandfather at our house. It was one of the most magical experiences of my whole life. It was the 1st and only time ive ever seen my Grandfather tear up. This is why I have a Classic Richard jersey, to honour Maurice and my Grandfather.
I hope you all enjoy this wonderful moment from Habs and sports history.
RIP Maurice + RIP Grandpa
