He was an electrifying player and despite my dislike for the organization he was a player you just couldn't dislike. RIP.

Saw him in my first ever NHL game live.

Hated the Habs but was a huge fan of the player....purely electrifying.

RIP.....legend.

Phenomenal skater and player!

Had the privilege of meeting Monsieur Guy Lafleur at the All Star game in 1985 in Calgary. Super nice man… he will be missed!

Condolences to Guy’s family, friends, and all his fans.

Not much else to say. The passing of a legend.

When I was a kid, there were two guys above the rest. Gretzky and LaFleur. At least in my mind.

RIP Guy, there's plenty of the beautiful game being played up on that astral plane.

He was an absolute rock star in his heyday. 50+ goals and 100+ pts in 6 straight seasons.

Those Hab teams were nothing short of a dynasty.

Just a beauty

Same, it seemed growing up (pre-Flames) kids either loved the Habs or hated them. My dad hated the Habs so I hated the Habs, but I always was one of the kids who wanted to be Lafleur playing street hockey.
