Mention his name, and so many things come to mind. His size...his skills...and his class...he was a perfect hockey player...and after meeting him today, no question that he is an even better person.
Beliveau was the centrepiece of the Montreal Canadiens dynasty that won ten Stanley Cups during his reighn, and five as captain of the team. No other man has captained more.
Most experts can't argue that Beliveau is one of the top ten players in hockey history, and one of the top three centres in NHL history, along with number 99 and number 66.
Jerry Neville was quite excited to see Mr. Beliveau, and decorated the studio before his arrival.
He is the special guest at tonight's Acadia Axemen celebrity dinner in Wolfville, and if you are planning to attend, you are in for a great evening. Mr. Beliveau is a class act.
