Below is an excerpt from the Foxsports.com article by Lyle Richardson (Spector) who gives his Top 10 all-time Habs:
3. Guy Lafleur: Three time winner of the Art Ross and Pearson trophies, two-time winner of the Hart as league MVP, the 1977 Conn Smythe winner as playoff MVP and a member of five Stanley Cup winners, Lafleur was the straw that stirred the drink for the Canadiens in the late 1970s, carrying them to four straight championships. During that time he was the game’s undisputed superstar, thrilling crowds with his end-to-end rushes, his blazing shot and dazzling play-making. The image of Lafleur in full flight with his blond hair streaming in the wind earned him the nickname “Le Demon Blonde” in Quebec. Long after his retirement Lafleur still remains among the greatest and most popular players in Canadiens history.
