Bothered by a friggin' lung cancer, Guy Lafleur agreed to talk with Marc de Foy of the Journal de Montréal, regarding the death of his friend Mike Bossy, who was taken by the same disease.
"Mike was a guy with real integrity.
"He played for his team, he wasn't a one-man show. He was a guy who would do anything to win. What was important to him was winning.
"I'm proud to have been around him with Team Canada (it was the 1981 Canada Cup). Mike had an influence on many players. A lot of young players have been inspired by him."
Regarding his health condition, Lafleur says he is suffering.
"It's rough, it's painful," he replies
"My weight has dropped to 169 pounds. It doesn't make sense!
"I don't take medication anymore. I let go of all that at Christmas. I want to have a good quality of life. I take life as it is."
We obviously wish Guy Lafleur the best in this battle against the disease.
