  Yes he does. So many great memories with him, Jean Beliveau, Yvon Cornyeyye sp?, Jauques Lappierierre, Lemaire, etc, etc, etc. back when I became a Habs fan.

  Saw the end of Henri's career, well Mom and Dad say I did anyway . I'm from a family of Montreal Canadiens fans from upper North Carolina go figure. Extremely well liked and respected Henri was. Class act.

  North Carolina here too. Saw him many times when I lived in Chicago at the old Chicago stadium.

  Had the chance to meet Henri a few years ago at the Bell Centre during a Habs game. He was gracious and a gentleman. I'm glad I got to shake his hand. RIP Mr. Richard.
