guy I used to know through work once told me that when he was a kid in the '70s the Canadiens had part of their training camp in New Brunswick, and he and his dad were having lunch at some roadside place when the Habs' bus pulls up. He went up to their tables to ask for an autograph, and Mahovlich pulled him over, put his arm around his shoulder and he sat with the team the whole time they were there. Made a fan for life out of my friend.
