Regardless of what your feelings are. He was still vital to that Stanley Cup run.

As it now stands, there are 4 players on that 2020-2021 team that are now retired:

  • Carey Price
  • Shea Weber
  • Paul Byron
  • Eric Staal

Congrats to all these players. Go Habs Go!!

    Carey isn’t technically retired, he’s on LTIR.

  2. Si seulement on avait eu la même décence pour Markov…

  3. I remember how bad Staal was in the regular season for us, only to center that insanely good line with Perry and Armia during the cup run.

    For whatever reason, I initially read that as him signing a 1 day contract with the Canadiens to retire a Hab. I was very confused

    Sorry, but one of these things is not like the others, in multiple ways.

  6. He was pivotal with Armia in that game 5.

    Cycle masterclass.
