Guy Lafleur

Being drafted by the Montreal Canadiens, that was the greatest moment in my career. And stealing the Stanley Cup in 1978 and bringing it back to my hometown of Thurso. ”

I was lucky enough to have a hockey career in the NHL. ”

It's nice to go to small places where we had a lot of fans. They followed our career and it's kind of a way to say thank you to them and do it for a good cause. ”

A captain shouldn't be chosen on the amount of goals he's going to score. ”

You do not play hockey for good seasons. You play to win the Stanley Cup. It has to be the objective. ”

I went out almost every night with the guys on the team between 1975 and 1981. We were winning in those years. It was fun. ”

When you win in Montreal, it's the best place in the world to play hockey. ”

I was a right-winger, but I was all over the ice. ”

I would compare that to when I first started with the Montreal Canadiens; it was a big family then, where the guys really stuck together and worked like a unit. But when I came back in '88, it was not like that anymore. ”

When trouble comes, it's your family that supports you. ”
