We told you a few minutes ago, the national funeral of the great Guy Lafleur is currently taking place and there are many people present.
Notably: The players of the current edition of the Montreal Canadiens (including Shea Weber), Kent Hughes, Jeff Gorton, Martin St-Louis... There is also Gary Bettman, Bill Daly, Justin Trudeau and his wife, François Legault and his wife, Jean Charest, Madame Béliveau, Serge Savard, Yvan Cournoyer, Larry Robinson, Guy Carbonneau, Patrick Roy, Mario Tremblay, Marc Bergevin, Dominique Ducharme, Paul Wilson. (to name but a few)
In addition to all these people, there is one in particular that we would like to highlight.
The GM of the Colorado Avalanche, Joe Sakic, is on hand. Wow! He came to Guy Lafleur's funeral, as his team is playing its very first game of the 2022 playoffs tonight.
A strong gesture on his part, and there was absolutely nothing that required him to do that.
Bravo and hats off to Mr. Sakic!
